Actually started out a a laborer for a local siding and gutter company in 2000. In 2003 one of the guys on their gutter crew quit out of the blue and I was asked if I would be willing to help out temporarily until they found a replacement. At first I absolutely hated it! It was completely different than anything I had ever done. Fast forward a few years and I've gotten over my fear of heights, learned a ton about gutters and leaf protection and I'm running my own crew. In 2007 I was approached by a local seamless gutter contractor with a very lucrative opportunity to be the right hand man for an established gutter contractor. I jumped at the opportunity! 10 years later I bought a gutter machine, trailer and hiring my son to install gutters with me!! Since then with the help of my better half April and my Son Tyler we have steadily grown Simply Gutters into one of the most reputable and affordable gutter companies in the Twin Cities.
