6 Best Gutter Companies in Lakeville, MN (2026 Guide)
9min Read
Posted 3.17.2026
Lakeville’s gutter problem mirrors the city’s growth. The 1990s and 2000s tract development across the 55044 and 55024 ZIPs left most homes with the smallest legal gutter spec — 5-inch K-style aluminum, undersized for the steeper two-story rooflines that dominate this part of the south metro. Twenty-five-plus years later, those gutters are sagging, leaking at the seams, and pulling away from the fascia in entire neighborhoods. Add Lakeville’s mature tree canopy near Orchard Lake, Lake Marion, and Crystal Lake, and gutters become one of the most-replaced exterior components in the city right now. The good news: seamless aluminum or steel gutters sized correctly to the roof, with the right cover system, last 20+ years and protect everything below them — fascia, soffit, siding, and (most expensive of all) the foundation.
This guide is written by the Owl Roofing team — a Shoreview-based, family-owned home exterior contractor serving Lakeville from 40 minutes north. Gutters are a newer service line for us, and we tell you exactly when to choose a hometown specialist instead. We’re listed in our honest ranking position below — toward the bottom, not the top.

1. ABC Seamless of the Twin Cities
Best for: Lakeville two-story and lake-area homes that need gutters sized correctly the first time.
ABC Seamless is the longest-running seamless-gutter brand in the country, and the Twin Cities dealer serves Lakeville as core territory. Where almost everyone else installs aluminum, ABC’s signature product is heavy-gauge seamless steel — fabricated on a truck-mounted machine right at your house in one continuous run. Steel handles ladder dings, ice loads, and falling branches in ways aluminum can’t. Lakeville’s larger 2010s-era homes with steep roof pitches especially benefit from 6-inch steel that won’t bend under heavy spring snowmelt loads.
Watch for: Steel gutters cost roughly 30–50% more than aluminum upfront. The math typically pays back in life span (40+ years vs. 20–25 for aluminum), but if you plan to sell within 5–7 years, aluminum may be the better economic call.
2. Lindus Construction
Best for: Lakeville homeowners running gutters alongside siding, roofing, or windows.
Lindus has been operating in the Twin Cities since the late 1970s and is BBB Accredited with an A+ rating. They install seamless aluminum gutters, K-style and half-round profiles, and pair gutter installations with their roofing, siding, and insulation work. For Lakeville projects where the gutters are coming off because the roof or siding is being replaced, Lindus is one of the most experienced multi-trade operators in the metro.
Watch for: Multi-service operators sometimes have less daily volume in any one trade than a focused gutter specialist. If your project is gutter-only, ask how many seamless installs they completed last year.
3. Minnesota Leafless Gutters
Best for: Tree-shaded Lakeville lots near Orchard Lake, Lake Marion, or Crystal Lake.
Minnesota Leafless Gutters specializes in seamless aluminum gutters paired with their proprietary “leafless” cover system. They serve Lakeville and the broader Twin Cities and have built their reputation on the cover detail — the place where most gutter systems fail in heavily wooded yards. Lakeville’s mature canopy near the lake areas makes the cover system matter more than the gutter itself.
Watch for: Proprietary cover systems mean replacement parts come from one supplier. Confirm warranty terms in writing.
4. LeafFilter
Best for: Pure gutter-guard installs over existing gutters that are still structurally sound.
LeafFilter is a national company with a heavy Twin Cities presence. Their stainless steel micro-mesh sits on top of existing gutters and prevents debris from getting in. If your current gutters are intact and you want guards installed without replacing the whole system, LeafFilter is purpose-built for that job. They run a transferable lifetime warranty, which can be a meaningful resale-value note.
Watch for: National operators rely on regional sales teams. Pricing is sometimes negotiable when you compare against a second quote — always get one.
5. Gutter Helmet of Minnesota
Best for: Homeowners who specifically want the reverse-curve cover system.
Gutter Helmet’s reverse-curve design has been on the market for decades and is one of the most recognizable gutter cover systems in the country. The Minnesota franchisee installs Gutter Helmet on existing or new gutters across the Twin Cities, including Lakeville. The reverse-curve approach handles heavy water flow well; some homeowners prefer it over micro-mesh in pine-needle-heavy yards.
Watch for: Reverse-curve covers can struggle with sustained heavy rain runoff during severe storms. Sizing matters — make sure the installer specs the right downspout capacity.
6. Owl Roofing — Now Offering Gutter Installation in Lakeville
Best for: Lakeville homeowners replacing their roof and gutters as a single project.
Owl Roofing is based in Shoreview at 1000 County Road E West Ste 135 — a 40-minute drive north of Lakeville. We’re family-owned, BBB Accredited, GAF Systems Plus Certified for roofing, Minnesota-licensed and insured, and active members of the local Chamber of Commerce. Our 5.0 Google rating across 30+ verified reviews comes from Shoreview, North Oaks, Roseville, and the surrounding suburbs we live in. We recently expanded into gutter installation as part of our broader exterior service.
We’ll be honest: we are newer to gutters than the five companies above, and we’re not based in Lakeville. If your project is gutters-only, ABC Seamless or Minnesota Leafless will likely give you a sharper quote and more depth on cover-system tradeoffs. We earn our place on this list when your roof is being replaced and the gutters are coming off anyway — running them as one project means tighter coordination, one warranty contact, and one project manager rather than three. Every Owl install, including gutters, is backed by our Get it Right Guarantee — a 10-year workmanship warranty.
What Owl Roofing Customers Actually Say
Real, verified Google reviews from real customers. Owl Roofing maintains a 5.0 Google rating with 30+ five-star reviews.
We used Owl Roofing for a repair on our roof in Brooklyn Park, and I was blown away by how good they were. Every member of the team communicated well about the process. Their price transparency was super helpful. They got the work done very fast for us.
— Matt Brown, Brooklyn Park (verified Google review)
Noah is the real deal. After our insurance denied our roof claim and the first roofer walked away, Noah showed up the next day and said he thought he could get us a new roof. He delivered. We came up with a nickname for him: “The Roof Whisperer.”
— Tyler Moberg, verified Google review
I am an Independent Insurance Agency owner and have worked with Noah on several roof projects. The homeowners have been extremely satisfied with the quality of the work and craftsmanship Noah and his crews have provided.
— Fred Zappa, Independent Insurance Agency Owner
It didn’t feel like dealing with a big company — it felt like working with people who actually care about the homes and community in the North Oaks and Shoreview area.
— Cody Warren, verified Google review
Noah and his team are outstanding! His clear communication, professionalism, and workmanship are top-notch. I recommend Owl Roofing to all my clients, friends, and family.

How to Choose a Gutter Company in Lakeville
Insist on seamless aluminum or steel — not sectional. Sectional gutter kits sold at big-box stores have a seam every 10 feet, and every seam is a future leak. Seamless gutters are fabricated on-site in continuous runs from a single coil and only seam at corners and downspouts.
Size the gutters to the roof, not the bid. Standard 5-inch K-style is fine for many ramblers. For Lakeville’s two-story tract homes and larger 2010s-era homes with steep roof pitches, 6-inch is often the right call — it carries roughly 40% more water. A contractor who quotes 5-inch on a steep two-story without asking is cutting corners.
Get the workmanship warranty in writing. Manufacturer warranties cover the gutter material. Workmanship warranties cover the install — including hanger spacing, pitch, and downspout placement. Owl Roofing’s Get it Right Guarantee is 10 years.
Verify the Minnesota license. Confirm via the Minnesota Department of Labor & Industry license lookup before signing. Owl Roofing’s MN license is BC809662.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much do gutters cost in Lakeville, MN?
For a typical Lakeville home, full gutter replacement runs $1,800–$5,000 depending on linear footage, gutter material, and downspout count. Lakeville’s larger 2010s-era homes typically run higher than older suburb averages. Seamless aluminum runs $7–$13 per linear foot installed; seamless steel from ABC Seamless runs $12–$20. Adding gutter guards typically adds $8–$15 per linear foot.
Are gutter guards worth it on Lakeville homes near the lakes?
For tree-canopy-heavy lots near Orchard Lake, Lake Marion, and Crystal Lake, almost always yes. The math works out within 4–6 years versus the cost of professional cleaning twice annually. For Lakeville homes with minimal tree cover, the payback period stretches to 10+ years and routine cleaning may be the better economic call.
Should I replace my gutters when I replace my roof?
Usually yes. Gutters and downspouts are typically removed during roof replacement anyway, and reinstalling 25-year-old gutters with new ice-and-water shield underneath is rarely the right call. Bundling the two saves on tear-off labor and ensures the drip edge and gutter pitch line up cleanly.
Can I bundle gutters with siding, roofing, or windows in Lakeville?
Yes — bundling typically saves on flashing transitions, fascia repair, and trim coordination. See our Best Window Installers in Lakeville and Best Siding Contractors in Lakeville guides for the rest of the picture.
