Much of Plymouth's housing stock is now thirty to fifty years old, which puts the gutters squarely at replacement age. We install, replace, repair, and clean seamless gutters across the city, from Medicine Lake and Parkers Lake to the newer neighborhoods off Highway 55.
Gutter Work Around Plymouth
Homes from that era often carry undersized five-inch systems that were never specified for the heavier rainfall Minnesota has seen in recent decades. Upgrading to six-inch K-style with larger downspouts materially changes how the system handles spring melt and summer storms, roughly 40 percent more capacity. The wooded streets around Medicine Lake add steady leaf pressure, and shaded north-facing roofs hold snow long enough to make ice dams a recurring winter problem.
We treat ice dams as a system problem: correct pitch, correct sizing, and a channel that stays clear, so meltwater drains instead of refreezing at the roof edge. New Hope and Medina sit on adjacent routes.
A gutter that cannot clog is the single best thing you can give a shaded Plymouth roofline in January. Our Alu-Rex guards carry a lifetime clog-free guarantee and come from the only Alu-Rex Certified Installer in your region.

Plymouth Questions
01 Do you work on 30-to-50-year-old Plymouth homes?
They are some of our most common jobs. Original aluminum from the 70s and 80s is well past replacement age, and most of these homes benefit from a sizing upgrade to handle modern rainfall.
02 How do you handle ice dams on shaded roofs?
Ice dams are a system-level problem, but the gutter side matters: properly pitched, properly sized, and clog-free. We run six-inch K-style with oversized downspouts on shaded slopes and keep the channel clear with guards.
03 Is the six-inch upgrade worth it in Plymouth?
For most homes here, yes. The capacity increase is about 40 percent, which is meaningful given recent rainfall trends. We size to your specific roof area at the estimate.
