Gutter and Roofing Services inSt. Louis Park,Minnesota

St. Louis Park requires a property maintenance (point-of-sale) inspection before you list or transfer ownership — the Building and Energy Department flags deteriorated roofs, fascia, and exterior systems that dump water at the foundation. Failing gutters and soft eave boards show up on those reports and can delay closing until they are fixed.

Walk the eaves before you schedule the city inspection. Continuous seamless gutters with sound hangers and extended downspouts keep discharge off the foundation. Pair with fascia & soffit repairs when paint is peeling under the run. Nearby: Golden Valley, Edina, and Minneapolis.

ACS 2024 5-year data put the median year built at 1965. About 24% of units rose in the 1950s and another ~12% in the 1940s — postwar ramblers and story-and-a-halfs on tight lots. Half-story roofs push living-space heat into short, steep decks, so ice dams form at the eaves when sectional joints already weep.

Typical runs stay modest (often 80–140 LF), but seventy winters of freeze–thaw open every connector. Replace sectional edges with seamless aluminum and fix soft fascia in one lift. If asphalt is on a second or third life, add roofing. Leaf load context: Minnesota gutter-guard guide.

Met Council Growing Shade lists 34.6% average canopy (block groups from about 12% to 54%), so mature boulevard maples still clog old runs each fall. Mesh gutter guards cut that cycle. EAVEX is licensed BC808261. We also serve Hopkins and Minnetonka.
