Gutter replacement cost

Published cost ranges

These are national ranges as each source publishes them. None of them are our own prices.

The sources conflict. Angi's typical project range ($629 to $1,736) is far below HomeGuide's and Fixr's whole-house figures, and also below Angi's own per-foot table, which gives $800 to $8,000 for 200 feet. Angi's average likely includes smaller jobs than a full replacement, but the page doesn't say. We show each figure as published.

By home size

Angi's per-length table: 40 ft $160–$1,600, 100 ft $400–$4,000, 150 ft $600–$6,000, 200 ft $800–$8,000, 250 ft $1,000–$10,000. To measure, Angi suggests adding up the length of each roof edge plus the height of each corner where a downspout will run.

Cost by material

HomeGuide says its per-foot prices include the gutters, hardware, corners, fittings and professional installation. Fixr and Angi don't say what theirs include. HomeGuide's own 200-foot vinyl total ($1,000 to $2,000) is lower than its per-foot price would give ($1,600 to $2,400), and the lifespans in its FAQ are shorter than in its table (aluminum 20 to 25 years, vinyl 10 to 15, steel 20 to 30).

Gutter style

• K-style is the standard. Angi says it's the most common on homes built in the last 50 years and lists it at $3–$37 per foot.
• Half-round adds $1–$2 per foot (HomeGuide). Angi lists $3–$34 per foot and says some historic districts require it.
• Seamless adds $3–$5+ per foot over sectional (HomeGuide). Angi lists custom-built fascia gutters, formed from one piece of aluminum, at $6–$40 per foot.
• 6-inch gutters instead of 5-inch add $1–$2 per foot (HomeGuide), for heavy rainfall or large roofs.

Extras that change the quote

• Removing old gutters: $50–$200 (HomeGuide). Angi says pros usually include removal and disposal.
• Height: two-story homes add $1–$3+ per foot (HomeGuide). Hard roof access adds 10% to 30%, and limited site access 15% to 25%.
• Downspouts: $30–$75 each installed (HomeGuide). Angi prices them per foot: vinyl and aluminum $5–$8, steel $9–$12, copper $17–$20.
• Gutter guards: $15–$45 per foot installed (HomeGuide); Angi says about $1,500 on average; Fixr says $1,885 to $3,430 for a whole system. Fixr quotes guards at "$9 to $17 per square foot", a unit we'd normally expect to be per linear foot, so we've left that figure out of the estimator.
• Fascia and soffit: fascia board replacement $5–$12 per foot; fascia and soffits together $9–$34 per foot (HomeGuide). Rotten fascia must be fixed before new gutters go up.
• Splash blocks or extensions: $10–$50 per downspout (HomeGuide); Angi says about $10 per splash block.
• Color matching: $1–$4+ per foot (HomeGuide).
• Permits: $50–$200 where required (HomeGuide).
• Labor: Angi says about $75 an hour; Fixr says about $5 per linear foot.

Replacing the roof too? Gutters are often replaced with the roof so the drip edge and fascia can be done together. See our metal roof cost guide, the shingle calculator and the roof pitch calculator.

When to replace your gutters

HomeGuide lists cracks, holes or rust, gutters pulling away from the fascia, sagging when empty, water stains on siding, peeling paint below the roofline, and foundation cracks or a wet basement. Angi says gutters over 20 years old are often cheaper to replace than to keep repairing.

DIY or hire a pro?

Angi doesn't recommend DIY gutter installation because of the height, and says pros make sure the gutters are pitched correctly. Fixr adds that self-installing can void the gutter warranty. You can save by measuring ahead, clearing the area, and hauling away the old gutters yourself (Angi).

Getting quotes

• HomeGuide advises comparing detailed written estimates from at least three licensed, insured installers, comparing warranties as well as price, and not paying in full until the job is done.
• Ask whether removal, downspouts, splash blocks, fascia repair and permits are included, and whether the gutters are seamless.

FAQ

How much does gutter replacement cost per foot?

HomeGuide (October 28, 2025) says $12 to $25 per linear foot including labor and materials. Angi (updated October 16, 2026) says $4 to $40 per linear foot depending on material. Fixr (January 31, 2025) lists aluminum at $7 to $13 and vinyl at $5 to $10 per linear foot.

How much does it cost to replace all the gutters on a house?

HomeGuide puts an average home at $2,200 to $5,000, and Fixr puts replacing an entire gutter system at $2,582 to $4,699. Angi's national average for gutter installation is $1,182, with most homeowners paying $629 to $1,736, although its own per-foot table gives $800 to $8,000 for 200 feet.

How many feet of gutters does a house have?

HomeGuide says most homes have 100 to 200 linear feet, roughly one tenth of the home's square footage, and lists about 180 feet for a 2,000 sq ft single-story home.

Are seamless gutters worth the extra cost?

HomeGuide says seamless gutters cost $3 to $5 or more per linear foot over sectional ones but leak less. Fixr notes that sectional gutters are cheaper to repair because single segments can be swapped out.

How long do gutters last?

HomeGuide's material table gives aluminum 20 to 30 years, vinyl 10 to 20, steel 20 to 50, and copper 50 to 100; its FAQ on the same page gives shorter figures (aluminum 20 to 25, vinyl 10 to 15, steel 20 to 30). Angi says 20 to 50 years overall, with most at the shorter end.

Should I repair or replace my gutters?

HomeGuide puts gutter repairs at $100 to $450 and Fixr at $218 to $396. Both HomeGuide and Angi say replacement is often more cost-effective once gutters are over 20 years old or there are multiple problems, such as sagging from damaged fascia.

Does homeowners insurance cover gutter replacement?

HomeGuide says usually only when damage comes from a covered peril such as a storm, fire or falling tree, not wear and tear.
