I have referred a number of friends and relatives to Corey Bahr at Minnesota Custom Exteriors. He did roof inspections for a number of them.

Gutter Installation & Repair in Minnesota
Gutters, downspouts and soft metals keep water away from your roof, walls and foundation. When hail or ice damages them, we repair or replace them.
Gutters & Soft Metals
Small Details That Protect Your Whole Home
Your gutters carry thousands of gallons of water away from your home every year. When they are dented, sagging or clogged, water can back up under your shingles, stain your siding, reach your basement and make ice dams worse in the winter.
Gutters, downspouts, vents and flashing, often called soft metals, also show hail damage more clearly than any other part of your home. Dented gutters are often the first clue that your roof was hit too.
Our 25-point inspection checks your gutters and soft metals along with your roof, siding and windows, and our crews repair or replace them as part of your restoration.
What to Look For
Signs Your Gutters Need Attention
Dents from hail
Dented gutters and downspouts are a common sign of hail damage.
Sagging or pulling away
Gutters that sag or pull away from the fascia can’t move water properly.
Overflowing water
Water spilling over the edge can damage your siding, landscaping and foundation.
Ice dams and icicles
Large ice dams and icicles in winter can point to drainage and roof problems.
Are Damaged Gutters Covered?
Hail-damaged gutters, downspouts and soft metals may be covered by your homeowners insurance, often as part of a larger storm damage claim. We document everything and help you through the process.
