Gutter Contractor Software in Minnesota

Gutters are a volume game. You're doing two or three installs a day, pricing by linear foot, juggling 5" K-style and 6" half-round, and every third call is about leaf guards. ExteriorPro lets you quote from the truck, drop in downspouts and guards as line items, route the crew to the next stop, and bill the customer before you've packed up. If you run recurring cleaning contracts, those live in here too — no more sticky notes telling you who needs a fall cleanout.

Two or three installs a day across Minnesota means pricing has to come out of the truck, not the office. ExteriorPro lets you quote, schedule, and invoice from a phone.

From $199/month per location. No credit card required to start.

Ice dams are the gutter business in Minnesota. Snow melts over the warm part of the attic, runs down to the cold eave, and freezes in the gutter, and once the gutter is full of ice the meltwater has nowhere to go but back up under the shingles. Homeowners see the icicles and call a gutter company. The honest answer is often that the fix is in the attic insulation and ventilation, and being able to explain that, and to quote heat cable or a guard that sheds ice, is what gets the repeat call.

Snow load does the rest of the damage. It slides off the roof onto the gutter, the weight pulls hangers out of fascia that has been wet since November, and the spring calls are for gutters that are still on the house but pitched the wrong way. Duluth and the North Shore get lake-effect snow off Superior on top of the regular kind, and the guards that survive there are built for snow, not just leaves.

Hail matters too. The Twin Cities get hit most summers, aluminum gutters dent, and a gutter company that documents the dents well ends up attached to a lot of roof claims. That brings Minnesota's storm law into a gutter job. A contractor being paid from an insurance claim cannot offer to cover any part of the deductible and has to hand the homeowner a written notice of that rule with the first estimate.

Seamless aluminum in five and six inch K-style is nearly all of the residential work, run out of a machine on the truck, and the install season runs from April to November. A company that only does gutters is one special skill and does not need the state license. A company that does gutters and roofing needs the Residential Building Contractor license from the Department of Labor and Industry.

Every trade, one price

Roofing, siding, windows, and gutters are all included at one price per location — so a crew that adds a second trade doesn't change what they pay.
