Gutter Calculator

Aluminum gutters cost $4-9 per linear foot installed. Vinyl is cheapest at $3-6/ft. Copper is most expensive at $15-30/ft. A typical home with 150-200 linear feet of gutters costs $800-5,000+ depending on material.

Standard 5-inch K-style gutters handle most residential needs. Upgrade to 6-inch gutters for homes in heavy rainfall areas, with large roof areas, or steep roof pitches. Oversized gutters cost 15-20% more but handle twice the water volume.

Gutter guards cost $7-15 per linear foot but eliminate most gutter cleaning ($150-300 per cleaning, 2-3 times per year). They pay for themselves in 5-10 years while preventing clogs, ice dams, and water damage.
