What affects the cost?
- Material choice — vinyl is cheapest but least durable; aluminum seamless is the best value for most homes; copper is premium and lasts 50+ years
- House size and stories — a two-story house costs more per foot due to ladder/scaffold work; total linear footage drives the total price
- Gutter style and size — 5-inch K-style is standard; 6-inch or half-round profiles cost more but handle heavier rainfall
- Downspouts — typically $5–$15 per linear foot installed; most homes need 4–8 downspouts
- Old gutter removal — removing and disposing of existing gutters adds $1–$3 per linear foot
- Gutter guards — add $3–$10 per linear foot for leaf protection; micro-mesh is most effective
- Fascia board condition — rotted fascia must be replaced before new gutters go up ($5–$15/ft)
Gutter costs in the United States
The most popular choice — seamless aluminum gutters — costs $6–$14 per linear foot installed. A typical 150-foot installation runs $1,000–$2,100. With 4–6 downspouts, old gutter removal, and cleanup, expect $1,500–$3,000 total for an average single-story house. Two-story homes add 20–30% for height premium.
Seamless gutters are formed on-site from a single coil of aluminum, eliminating leak-prone joints. This requires specialized equipment, so it's always a professional job. Budget $500–$1,500 extra if you want gutter guards installed at the same time — a worthwhile investment in areas with heavy tree coverage.

Gutter costs in the Netherlands
Dutch gutter (dakgoot) installation costs €40–€120 per running meter including BTW. Zinc gutters dominate the Dutch market at €60–€100/m — they suit the maritime climate well and last 30–50 years. Aluminum costs €40–€70/m. Copper runs €100–€150+/m. A typical rijwoning (row house) needs 15–20 m of gutters — €800–€2,000 total.
Many Dutch homes use hanging gutters (hanggoten) or integrated box gutters (bakgoten). Maintenance access is important — gutters on canal houses often require specialist equipment. Ensure your installer is familiar with local building codes and HOA (VvE) requirements.
How to save on gutter costs
- Choose aluminum seamless — best balance of cost and durability; 20–30 year lifespan with minimal maintenance
- Schedule in fall or winter — less demand means better rates from contractors
- Get 3+ quotes — pricing varies significantly between installers
- Add gutter guards now — cheaper during initial installation than as a separate project later
- Skip copper unless historic — copper is beautiful but costs 3–4x aluminum with minimal functional benefit
