If your rain gutters are old, rusty or sagging, it may be time to replace them. An inefficient gutter system does not only look unsightly but can also cause expensive water-related damage, such as soil erosion or basement flooding, in the near future. Keep on reading to learn about the factors that affect the overall cost of new gutters. 

• Material. How much gutters cost mainly depends on the type of material used. Vinyl is a popular low-cost option, although it has a tendency to crack and leak at seams. Copper, zinc and steel are other common gutter materials you will see on the market. Many homeowners also choose aluminum gutters because they are lightweight and easy to install.

• Gutter Type. Sectional and seamless are two main types of gutters. Sectional gutters come in separate segments of metal, whereas seamless gutters use a continuous piece of metal. While seamless gutters usually have a heftier price tag than sectional gutters, they are better at minimizing leaks.

• Removal of Old Gutters. To remove and dispose of your old gutters, you will need to hire a professional who has the necessary training and experience to do the task safely. This may add a little bit of money to the overall gutter replacement cost, but it ensures that your new gutter system is intact and will last for many years.

• Installation of New Gutters. In addition to the quality of work and location of the home, the scope of the gutter installation as well as the roof pitch factors into the cost of installation. Generally, a gutter installer will take approximately seven hours to install a 50-foot section of gutter.
