Whether old gutters are removed: Removing and disposing of old gutters can cost 50 cents to $1.00 per linear foot.
What material you use: 80% of seamless gutters are aluminum. Steel is a cheaper alternative.
Size: Gutters can be made in widths from 3 inches to 7 inches, though most are 5 inches. The larger, the costlier. The size needed is based on the size of your roof and the amount of rainfall common to your climate during its heaviest storms.
Upper-story installation: Installing gutters above the first level is more difficult, so the cost is typically $1.00 to $1.50 more per linear foot.
Number of corners: Installing corners is the most time-consuming aspect of the work, so homes with more than 6 corners push cost toward the upper end of the spectrum.
Premium colors: Deep, rich colors cost more than lighter colors from some gutter companies.
Where you live: Cities on or near the Coasts have the highest cost of living. They’re followed by major metropolitan areas like Chicago and Dallas/Ft. Worth. Rural areas of the Midwest, West and South have lower pricing. Cost of living can affect gutter costs by up to 30%.
Fascia repair: Rotted fascia must be replaced before new gutters are installed at a cost of $6.00 to $9.00 per foot. That cost is not included in the table above.
Extras: The costs here do not cover extras, but some homeowners add gutter guards, splash blocks, downspout extenders, rain chains or rain barrels.
