Gutter and Roofing Services inEdina,Minnesota

Edina tears down and rebuilds roughly 100 homes per year, transforming 1950s–1960s ramblers and Cape Cods into 2,500–5,000+ square-foot custom homes. The city has a dedicated Residential Redevelopment coordinator and requires a Construction Management Plan (CMP) for every teardown, including a neighborhood meeting for residents within 300 feet.

The irony: many of these million-dollar rebuilds ship with the same builder-grade sectional gutters that failed on the houses they replaced. A custom home with 200+ linear feet of complex roofline deserves seamless gutters formed on site — not 20 pre-cut sections joined by crimped connectors that will leak within ten years.

Edina’s median year built is 1965 per Census ACS data — the oldest of any Hennepin County suburb south of Minneapolis. The original stock consists of Cape Cods, ramblers, and modest split-levels built in the post-war boom. Homes that haven’t been torn down are now 60+ years old, and many still carry second-generation gutters and fascia from a 1990s renovation.

Tree canopy averages 42.2% per Met Council Growing Shade 2021 data. Mature oaks, maples, and elms in the Country Club, Morningside, and Parkwood Knolls neighborhoods generate heavy leaf loads. For homeowners planning to stay, a full exterior upgrade — roof, fascia and soffit, seamless gutters, and gutter guards — protects the investment for the next 25–30 years.

Edina’s Building Inspections Division requires permits for roofing (permit fee $150–$300) and siding. Demolition permits are also required for teardown projects. The office is at 4801 W. 50th St., Edina, MN 55424 (952-826-0372). Applications go through ePermits (LOGIS).

Gutter-only replacement does not typically require a permit. Edina is in Hennepin County. EAVEX is licensed under BC808261.
