"Pricey. We paid 8000 for 53 ft of gutter cover. Transferable Lifetime guarantee and the covers can be moved to new gutters if we replace the gutters. So I think it is worth it."
"I called for a quote an the next day Mike Suermann came out to look at what I needed. He took great care to give me what needed and thought was best for the house. He was a great wealth of knowledge. Our gutters and guards were installed the next business day. They cleaned up so well you wouldn't have known they were there. I am 100% satisfied with everything."

"Came out to replace 60 yo copper gutters on back of house. Gave good advice about proper size of gutter needed. Job was a partial replacement so some custom fitting needed to integrate with existing downspouts. Job was done quickly and expertly with no impact to existing landscape."
"We met the owner of American Gutter Guard at the Philadelphia Home Show. We had him come out and give us an estimate which was a bit higher than we expected but better than some others we had received. We actually had to delay the project start due to some pressing family demands, but were relived when he said they would be ready to start March 14th. However, his crew was not available March 14th due to another larger job they were working on. We had to call when no one showed up to find out about the crew availability. They were finally able to start March 26, 2011. The dumpster was delivered Friday, March 25th and on the 26th the crew arrived bright and early and got right to work. They worked Friday through Sunday then had to stop due to rain. There were several days of rain that delayed the project and that of course could not be helped. They showed up when it wasn't raining and continued working but they crew seemed a bit smaller. The gentleman (his name escapes me now) explained they were still working on a large job that required him to use a smaller crew on certain days for our job. This didn't really concern us too much since we really needed and wanted our roof done. We seemed to run into a few snags as the job wore on. The job was initally slated for 4 days and actually went 11 days. First due to rain then due to a smaller crew and then there were about 2 days where no one showed up. On one particular Sunday we expected them to come and the crew chief called at about 10 am saying his truck had broken down and he was getting it fixed. We found that the longer our project went on the less tidy they wore about cleaning up the site at the end of the day. There were stacks of shingles and other roofing supplies left on my neighbors front yard, who complained later about his plants being damaged. We heard less and less from the crew and weren't sure when they would be showing up. At the very end of the job the owner called my husband for payment and when my husband questioned him about the debris still in our yard (both front and back) and all of my gutters still in our driveway the owner must have called the crew chief. I got a frantic call on my cell from the crew chief telling me that "we are not dragging the job out. I was planning to come back tomorrow morning and put the gutters back on". I explained that since I wasn't home to see what he was talking about that he'd need to call my husband. We were later told our house had some underlying damage to the wood supporting the gutters that would need to be replaced in order to put the gutters back on. We ended up paying an extra $700 since the dumpster had to be emptied an extra time due to the amount of debris and since the project went longer than expected. There is more that I am likely forgetting at this time, but it was a lesson learned. We got the roof we needed but the communication and professionalism was just not there. We learned that we will need to be on top on anyone else who works on our house like a hawk in order to be sure we know and understand what's happening and when. Overall it was an okay experience but my house still has nearly no gutters and we will have to find someone else to either replace them or put them back."
Gutter Repair and Replacement questions, answered by experts
Regular cleaning, checking for leaks, and ensuring that downspouts direct water away from the foundation help prolong gutter life.
Icicles don't necessarily mean your gutters are clogged or bad, but they can indicate an underlying issue. While clogged gutters can cause icicles to form, the problem could also be an ice dam on your roof from poor insulation. In that case, melting snow can refreeze in the gutter even without a clog. Regardless of the cause, the weight of the ice can damage your gutters or even rip them completely off the house. If you are unsure of the underlying problem, it's best to call a roofing company to assess the issue and implement a permanent solution.
Costs depend on gutter length, damage severity, and labor rates.
Yes, it’s possible to replace only one section of a gutter, and it’s a common repair. Often, a tree limb will damage a gutter on one side of the house, or constant weather will cause early corrosion. Gutters are often joined together with couplings that are easy to remove and swap out. For this reason, some homeowners will purchase extra gutters when they install them to have spare sections to use for replacement later.
The trick to getting gleaming gutters can vary based on the material of your gutters. Aluminum gutters can often be restored to pristine condition by using a cloth to scrub them with a solution consisting of 1 cup of vinegar and 1 cup of water. Vinyl gutters can be whitened using dish soap and water. For deeply stained vinyl gutters, adding bleach with water and dish soap may help to remove black streaks. Many retailers sell premixed gutter sprays. Applying cleaning solutions to dry gutters before rinsing can help cleaners attach to dirt and grime for easier removal.
