How much does gutter installation cost?

It depends on how many feet of gutter the house needs, how many downspouts, how high the eaves are and whether fascia has to be replaced first. The estimate for your house is free, and it measures every run before it gives you a number.

What size gutters do you install?

6-inch seamless gutters, with downspouts placed to carry water away from the foundation, walkways, doors and air-conditioning units.

What are seamless gutters?

Gutters formed from a coil into one continuous length for each run of the house, so the only joints are at corners and downspout outlets. Fewer joints means fewer places to leak than sectional gutters.

Do you install gutters without a roof job?

Yes. Gutters can be their own job — the Rocky Mount building on this page was a gutter-only job — or part of a roof replacement.

Do you repair gutters, or only replace them?

Both. We re-hang sagging gutters, reseal leaking corners and outlets, replace damaged sections and downspouts, and replace rotten fascia behind them. When an old system is failing everywhere, replacement is usually the better value, and we will say so.

Will insurance pay for new gutters?

If a covered storm damaged them — hail dents, wind, a falling limb — gutters are part of the claim and appear on the adjuster’s estimate with the roof. Wear and clogging are not storm damage. We document gutter damage during the free inspection.

Should I replace my gutters when I replace my roof?

Often, yes. The old gutters and drip edge are disturbed by the tear-off anyway, rotten fascia is exposed and can be fixed, and the new gutters go up against the new roof edge. If your gutters are in good shape, they can stay.

A gutter job in Rocky Mount

This brick building in Rocky Mount had no gutters at all. Every drop off the roof landed at the foundation and splashed back onto the brick. We installed seamless gutters the full length of each eave, with downspouts along each wall ending on splash blocks. The photos were taken by our crew in September 2024, a week apart.

Why gutters matter on an Eastern NC house

Thunderstorms and tropical systems here drop a lot of water in a short time. Without gutters, or with gutters that overflow, that water comes off the eave in a sheet and lands next to the house.

Foundations and crawl spaces. Water dumped at the foundation soaks the soil against it and finds its way into crawl spaces and basements.
Fascia and soffit. Water that gets behind a gutter, or overflows it, rots the fascia board the gutter hangs on.
Siding and brick. Splash-back stains the bottom of the walls and keeps siding and trim wet.
Beds, walkways and steps. A roof edge without gutters digs a trench in the ground below it and washes out beds and mulch.

Trench across a lawn with black corrugated drain pipe laid in it, running away from the corner of a house — A drain line in the trench: carrying downspout water well away from the foundation.

White downspouts on a brick wall, one routed to land beside an air-conditioning unit rather than onto it — Downspouts placed to land beside the air-conditioning unit, not on it.

Where a downspout has to empty close to the house, water can be carried further away in an underground drain line, as in the photo above.

Signs your gutters need repair or replacement

Overflowing in heavy rain. The gutter is undersized, clogged, or not pitched toward the downspouts.
Sagging or pulling away from the house. Failed hangers, or rotten fascia that no longer holds a fastener.
Leaking seams and corners. Sectional gutters leak at every joint as the sealant ages. Seamless gutters only have joints at corners and outlets.
Peeling paint, stains or rot behind the gutter. Water is getting between the gutter and the fascia.
Downspouts that dump at the foundation. Puddles, erosion or a wet crawl space near a downspout.
Dents after a hail storm. Dented gutters and downspouts are storm damage in their own right, and evidence of hail on the roof above. Get the roof inspected.
Granules piling up in the gutters. That is a roof problem, not a gutter problem: the shingles are shedding their surface.

What “seamless” means, and why 6-inch

A seamless gutter is formed from a coil of metal into one continuous length cut to fit each run of the house. The only joints left are at the corners and where the downspouts connect, so there are far fewer places for a gutter to leak than on sectional gutters joined every few feet.

We install 6-inch seamless gutters. A 6-inch gutter holds and carries more water than the 5-inch size found on many older homes, which matters on long runs and in the downpours we get here. Downspouts are placed where the water can be carried away from the house — and away from air-conditioning units, walkways and doors.

Gutters with a new roof

A re-roof is the natural time to deal with the gutters. Old gutters often come down with the roof edge anyway, rotten fascia is exposed and can be replaced, and the new gutters go up against a fresh drip edge. Where the roof edge needs it, gutter apron flashing directs water off the shingles into the gutter rather than behind it.

Gutters add to the price of a re-roof, and our roofing costs FAQ explains why they belong in the same quote. Your gutter price depends on the number of feet of gutter, how many downspouts, the height of the house and whether any fascia has to be replaced; the estimate is free.

See roof replacement for how the rest of the job goes.

Storm-damaged gutters and insurance

Hail dents gutters and downspouts, wind pulls them loose, and falling limbs flatten them. When the damage came from a covered storm, gutters are part of the claim just like the shingles: they go on the adjuster’s estimate and are replaced with the roof. Adjusters also use dented gutters and downspouts as evidence that hail hit the property, so do not straighten or replace them before the roof has been inspected.

We photograph gutter damage during the free inspection and include it with the rest of the roof when we meet your adjuster. More in our NC roof insurance claims guide.

Gutter and fascia repair

Not every gutter problem means new gutters. Sagging runs can be re-hung, leaking corners and outlets resealed, and a damaged section or downspout replaced. When the fascia behind the gutter has rotted, the gutter comes down, the bad fascia board is replaced, and the gutter goes back up on sound wood. If an old sectional system is leaking at every joint, we will tell you when replacing it with seamless gutters makes more sense than chasing the leaks.
