If you’re thinking about replacing your old gutter system, the first thing you should do is to obtain at least one written quote from a reputable residential roofing company. Having one quote will allow you to contact several other local companies in your area so that you can compare costs and make the best decision possible. If this is your first time replacing your gutters, you may be unfamiliar with what exactly goes into a written estimate. So, in today’s post, we share four important things that should absolutely be present in any gutter replacement estimate.
What Type of Gutters Are Going To Be Installed
Not all gutter systems are created equal. In fact, the average cost per linear foot can range from $3-$6 dollars for vinyl gutters, all the way up to $20-$30 for galvalume gutters. For this reason, your written estimate should include what kind of gutters are going to be installed.
The Cost of Materials
Another thing your gutter and roofing contractor should include is a detailed list of all the materials that are going to be used as well as their prices.
The Cost of Labor
Your written estimate should break down in detail exactly how much you will be paying for the actual installation services. If you are replacing or upgrading your existing gutter system, the cost of removing the old materials should also be included.
How Much Time It Will Take
Last but not least, you will need to make sure that the written estimate goes over exactly how long it will take to install your new gutters. If your contractor informs you that they will only need one day to install your gutters, it can’t take them a week to complete the job.
