4 Essentials to Expect From a Gutter Replacement Estimate

Old and rusted gutters can’t protect your home from water damage, so you should consider getting newer, better ones. But first, you’ll need to get a quote from your choice of gutter company. This way, you’ll get a clearer picture of the project’s scope and its overall costs. Here are some of the things you should expect from a gutter replacement quote.

  1. Gutter Type
    The quote should include the type of gutters you’re having installed. You generally have to choose between sectional or seamless gutters. The former is the classic choice, where separate metal segments are attached to each other via adhesive, and are strung along the roofline. The latter, on the other hand, is crafted using a single, continuous piece of metal and made to fit perfectly along the edge of your roof. Seamless gutters are obviously the best choice because they ensure smoother draining performance, prevent leaks and look just plain better and sleeker compared to sectional ones.
  1. Gutter Size
    A detailed gutter estimate should include the exact measurements of the new system. Don’t hesitate to ask your gutter installation company if your new gutters are sizable enough to effectively handle runoff during a major weather event.
  1. Material and Labor Costs
    It pays to know which essentials are going into your overall gutter replacement budget. For this reason, the quote should provide an itemized list of all the materials that will be used for the project, along with their costs. It should also break down how much you’ll be paying for the actual replacement work and include other charges that may be incurred, such as the removal and disposal of the old gutter system.
  1. Project Timeline
    Your gutter replacement quote should have a definite start and end date. This helps you determine how efficient your choice of gutter installers is about their work.
