Gutter replacement
Replacement for leaking, sagging, undersized, storm-damaged or poorly draining gutters that no longer perform – with an honest assessment of whether you need it at all.
Condition first
Gutter replacement is often the best option when an existing system is too damaged, worn, undersized or poorly performing to repair effectively. No single symptom decides it – the overall condition does. Johnson Exteriors can inspect the system and recommend the appropriate scope.

Repair or replace?
Johnson Exteriors inspects the gutter system, downspouts, fascia, roofline and drainage problem areas to determine whether targeted repair or full replacement is the better next step.
Repeated repairs on an aging or poorly draining system may not solve the underlying problem. If that’s where you are, we’ll say so – and if a repair will do, we’ll say that too.
Replace it right
Many failing gutter systems weren’t sized or laid out for the roof they serve. When we replace gutters, we don’t simply copy the old layout – we look at roof design, pitch, drainage volume, run length and downspout placement and correct what wasn’t working.
Our process
From evaluating the existing system to a cleaned-up, reviewed installation.
We check your gutters, downspouts, roofline, drainage issues and any storm damage.
We recommend repair, replacement, gutter guards, downspouts or a new layout – whichever fits the problem.
We plan the right gutter size, material, layout and drainage setup for your home.
We complete the approved work with attention to water flow and exterior protection.
We review the finished system with you, answer questions and clean the work area.
After Minnesota storms
Minnesota storms, heavy snow, ice, wind and falling debris can bend gutter runs, loosen fasteners and disconnect downspouts. After hail, wind or snow damage, gutter replacement is often part of a larger exterior restoration.
Because Johnson Exteriors also handles roofing, siding, windows and doors – and has years of experience with severe-weather restoration and insurance claims – your gutter work can be coordinated with the rest of the repairs.

Replacement is usually the better long-term option when gutters are leaking, sagging or pulling away in multiple areas, are undersized for the roof, are damaged across long runs, or keep failing after repeated repairs. If the system simply isn’t moving water away from the home, replacing it addresses the underlying problem.
Yes. Not every gutter problem requires full replacement. If the issue is localized – a leaking seam, a loose section or a damaged downspout – we’ll recommend a repair.
Yes. Replacement is a good time to correct an undersized system. Johnson Exteriors installs 5″ and 6″ aluminum gutters and copper gutters, and can update downspout size and placement at the same time.
It often is. Gutter repair or replacement is frequently part of a larger exterior restoration after hail, wind, snow or storm damage. Much of the Johnson Exteriors team’s experience is in exterior restoration after severe weather, including insurance claims.
