If you’re planning to replace old gutters or install a new drainage system, setting a budget is a smart first step. Gutter installation costs vary depending on location, contractor rates, material type, roof size, and overall project complexity. Below, we break down average gutter prices so you can protect your home effectively without overspending.

Average Cost of Gutters

On average, homeowners spend between $600 and $1,800 for new gutter installation, including materials and labor. This equals roughly $4 to $40 per linear foot, depending on gutter material, installation difficulty, and the company you hire.

Gutter Costs by Material

Different gutter materials come with different price points and lifespans. To estimate your total cost, measure your roofline in feet and multiply by the price per linear foot for your chosen material.

Aluminum Gutters
Lightweight, rust-resistant, and durable, aluminum is the most common choice. It comes in multiple colors, can be painted, and works great for seamless designs. Properly maintained, aluminum gutters can last 40+ years.
Cost: $3 – $15 per linear foot

Vinyl Gutters
Affordable and easy to install, vinyl (PVC) gutters are common but less durable in heavy rain or extreme climates. Typically last up to 25 years in ideal conditions.
Cost: $3 – $7 per linear foot

Steel Gutters
Strong and weather-resistant, but heavier and more prone to rust. Galvanized or stainless steel options extend their lifespan to around 20 years.
Cost: $5 – $20 per linear foot

Copper Gutters
A premium option often used for historic or high-end homes. They’re long-lasting but expensive. Copper naturally develops a patina unless treated.
Cost: $15 – $40 per linear foot

Gutter Costs by Style

Gutter type (shape/design) also impacts cost:

K-Style Gutters
Stylish crown-molding look, holds more water but harder to clean.
Cost: $3 – $37 per linear foot

Half-Round Gutters
Classic rounded look, easier to clean, less prone to clogs. Required in some historic districts.
Cost: $3 – $34 per linear foot

Seamless Gutters
Custom-made from one continuous piece, reducing leaks and clogs. Low-maintenance and long-lasting.
Cost: $3 – $40 per linear foot

Additional Costs to Consider

• Gutter Guards – Prevent clogs and reduce maintenance.

  • Inserts: $1 – $3/ft

  • Screens: $2 – $4/ft

  • Toppers: $5 – $15/ft

• Removal of Old Gutters – Disposal of old gutters typically costs $1 – $2/ft, plus cleanup fees if needed.
