- Cost can add up quickly, especially if you’re a novice and have never attempted a Metal Gutter installation before. I would strongly recommend you hire a licensed and Insured Metal Gutter contractor to perform the installation for you.
- Be sure to have a copy of the Metal Gutter Manufacturer’s recommended installation requirements before starting, to make sure your project doesn’t end up costing you more money in the long-run.
Metal Gutter – Pricing and Installation Cost Checklist
- Get at least 3-5 estimates before hiring a Metal Gutter contractor — estimates are typically free, unless it’s a service call for a repair.
- Expect the Metal Gutter prices to fluctuate between various companies – each and every company have different operation expenses and over-head.
- Try to get prices in late Fall, early winter – you should expect aggressive pricing discounts by waiting for a contractor’s down season.
- Try to budget and additional 7-15% more on top of what our calculator gives out – I.e; difficult configurations, patterns, bump-outs, radius’s etc. The additional complexity of your gutter-line will add to the Metal Gutter costs.
- Visit every supply house that sell your particular brand of Metal Gutter and try to negotiate a better price with each supplier – I save on average 20%.
- Before having new Metal Gutter installed onto your home, be sure to check to see whether or not your need to replace your roof. If your roof is in bad shape, or close to it, have your new Metal Gutter installed after a new roof install so your gutter’s don’t get banged up.
- Remember, there are multiple styled homes in the U.S – from: Contemporary, colonial, cape-cod style, ranch, bungalow, victorian, etc. So keep that in mind and try to budget a little more, before starting your Metal Gutter project.
