"One of my neighbors who remodels houses recommended Custom Insulation to me so I engaged them to replace gutters in the front of the house and in some areas in the back last year. I had one issue and the owner promptly and generously addressed it to my full satisfaction. Recently, during a heavy downpour, one of the small gutters overflowed significantly. Thinking it was improperly installed, I called the company and the owner came out himself the next day! After inspecting the gutter, he determined the down spout and extender were clogged and had caused the problem. He cleaned it out and tested the flow. He diagnosed the problem correctly, to my chagrin. When I asked him how much I owed him, he refused to charge me. I had written an excellent review last year for their installation work but I just had to do a follow up review because that kind of customer service is extraordinary. The owner deserves super praise for his ethics and quality. If I need insulation in my house or more gutter repair, I will call Custom Insulation and recommend that anyone looking for gutter or insulation work call them."

"I wish there was an extra star to give them. Rick and crew showed up on time as promised. They are very professional and conscientious. The gutters were cleaned as promised. The fascia repair appeared initially to be superficial and cosmetic, but turned out to be more damage than first thought. Their carpentry skills are excellent. They were patient and took the time to do the repair correctly to ensure no further damage results. I would highly recommend them and would hire them again for other home repairs and maintenance."
"We were very happy with the service they provided. They really know what they are doing and did a very good job. They went beyond what they were supposed to do and even repaired my railing too."
Gutter Repair and Replacement questions, answered by experts
When you need to repair your galvanized gutters from leaks and caulk isn’t doing the job, you can solder your gutters with a roofer’s soldering iron. First, you’ll need to clean your gutters thoroughly with a wire brush and remove rust and oxidized paint. Next, you’ll make weld points on the gutter and solder over the connection until it’s completely smooth. You can also hire a roofing company near you to tackle this project.
In most cases, it makes more sense to repair leaking or damaged gutters than it will to replace them. You’ll spend an average of $400 to repair your gutters, while full replacement will cost around $2,000 or more, depending on the gutter material and style and the size of your home. If your gutters are nearing the end of their lifespan—usually around 20 years for aluminum or vinyl gutters or up to 50 years for copper or steel—then it might make sense to replace them, as it could cost you less in the long run.
It’s technically possible to remove some soffit material without removing your gutters, but it’s usually a good idea to remove gutters, fascia, and soffit and then reinstall them in the opposite order. Replacing soffits without removing gutters is likely to leave you with a less professional and clean appearance, and you’re more likely to do damage to your gutters and fascia boards in the process.
If you’re replacing your roof, you don’t need to worry about replacing your gutters as long as they’re functional and in good condition. Some roofers may recommend temporarily removing gutters to prevent them from damage during a roof replacement, but the right professional can reduce this risk. Replacing your gutters would only be necessary if your gutters are in bad shape and already need replacing.
The average cost to install or replace gutters is around $2,000, with typical project costs ranging from $900 to $7,000. Most companies charge between $4 and $30 per linear foot. The total price depends on several factors, including the size of your home, the complexity of its footprint, the gutter material (e.g., vinyl, metal), and the gutter style (e.g., half-round, custom-built). Additional elements like downspouts, corners, and optional add-ons like gutter guards can also increase the price. The condition of your roof is another consideration, as new gutters cannot be installed on a rotting or sloping roof. While it can be an expensive upfront cost, new gutters are a worthwhile, long-lasting investment for protecting your home's exterior. You can save up to half on labor costs by installing them yourself.
