How much do new gutters cost?

$900 to $2,800 for an average home, or $6 to $13 per linear foot for seamless aluminum installed.

Are seamless gutters worth it?

Yes. They cost about 20% more than sectional but eliminate the seams where nearly all leaks start.

Only for large roof areas, steep pitches or heavy-rain regions. Six-inch gutters handle about 40% more water than 5-inch.

Are gutter guards worth the money?

Micro-mesh guards at $10 to $25 per foot pay off if you have overhanging trees or a tall home. Otherwise twice-yearly cleaning at $100 to $250 is cheaper.

How long do gutters last?

Ten to fifteen years for vinyl, twenty to thirty for aluminum, and fifty or more for copper and zinc.

How many downspouts do I need?

One per 30 to 40 feet of gutter run, more on steep or large roof planes.
