The sections below break each line down, then explain what moves a St. Pete price up or down and why three quotes for the same house can disagree.
New seamless gutters, by the foot
Seamless gutters are priced per linear foot because every run is formed to length on site. The per-foot figure covers the gutter, hidden hangers, end caps, mitered corners, outlets and sealing.
| Job | Estimate | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| 5" seamless aluminum, K-style | $7–$11 per ft | Hidden hangers, end caps, mitered corners and outlets included |
| 6" seamless aluminum, K-style | $9–$14 per ft | Larger trough for big, steep, tile or metal roofs |
| .032 heavy-gauge coil upgrade | $1–$2 per ft extra | Stiffer gutter for long runs; .027 is standard |
Typical whole-house totals
Most single-story homes in St. Pete have 140–180 feet of roof edge that needs a gutter. Not every edge does: gable ends shed no water, and some homeowners only gutter the front and back.
| Job | Estimate | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Single-story, about 140–180 ft | $1,400–$2,800 | 5" gutters and 4–6 downspouts |
| Single-story with tile roof | $2,000–$3,600 | Usually 6" with 3×4 downspouts |
| Two-story, about 180–240 ft | $2,600–$5,000 | Taller ladders, more downspout length |
Downspouts and drainage
Downspouts are priced per piece, not per foot, because each one has the same outlet, elbows and straps whatever its length on a single-story wall.
| Job | Estimate | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Downspout, 2×3 | $90–$150 each | Standard size, with elbows and straps |
| Downspout, 3×4 oversized | $120–$200 each | Moves roughly twice the water of a 2×3 |
| Extension or underground run-out | $40–$250 each | Flip-up extension at the low end; buried pipe to a pop-up emitter at the top |
Replacing an old system
Replacement adds two lines to a new install: taking the old gutters away and replacing any fascia that turns out to be soft. Details are on the gutter replacement page.
| Job | Estimate | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Tear-off and haul-away of old gutters | $1–$2 per ft | Usually $150–$400 for a whole house |
| Fascia board replacement | $8–$20 per ft | Only where the wood behind the old gutter is soft |
| Full replacement, single-story home | $1,600–$3,200 | Tear-off, new seamless runs and downspouts |
Gutter guards
Guards are cheapest fitted with new gutters, since there is no clean-out. More on the options on the gutter guards page.
| Job | Estimate | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Perforated aluminum cover | $4–$7 per ft | Keeps out leaves and fronds; fine debris can sit on top |
| Stainless micro-mesh guard | $8–$14 per ft | Stops oak flowers, needles and grit; the most common pick here |
| Clean-out before fitting guards | $100–$250 per house | Needed when guards go on existing gutters |
Gutter repairs
Most repairs are a single visit. See the gutter repair page for what each job involves.
| Job | Estimate | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Reseal a leaking corner or end cap | $100–$250 | Old sealant cut out, new end cap or miter strip where needed |
| Rehang a sagging section | $150–$450 | New hidden hangers screwed into sound wood |
| Re-pitch a run that holds water | $200–$500 | Gutter lowered at one end so it drains to the outlet |
| Replace a damaged length | $250–$600 | New seamless piece formed to fit the gap |
Soffit and fascia
Wood repair is priced after we see how far the damage runs. The soffit and fascia page covers materials.
| Job | Estimate | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Fascia board replacement | $8–$20 per ft | Primed pine or PVC board, painted or wrapped |
| Aluminum fascia wrap | $4–$9 per ft | Covers sound wood so it never needs paint |
| Soffit panel replacement | $9–$24 per ft | Vented aluminum or vinyl, matched to the house |
| Small rot repair, a few sections | $350–$1,200 | The usual job when it is caught early |
What moves the price on St. Pete homes
- Stories. Two-story walls need taller ladders, more care and longer downspouts. Expect roughly 25–40% more per foot.
- Roof type. Tile and metal roofs shed water fast, so they usually need 6-inch gutters and 3×4 downspouts. Working around tile also takes longer.
- Corners. Each mitered corner is cut and sealed by hand. A hip roof with eight corners costs more than a simple box with four.
- Fascia condition. Older homes in Old Northeast, Kenwood and Crescent Lake often hide soft boards behind their gutters.
- Access. Pool cages, lanai screens and tight side yards mean ladders go up from awkward spots, and some runs are reached from the roof.
- Waterfront exposure. On Snell Isle, Shore Acres and the beaches we use coastal-grade fasteners throughout, which adds a little.
Cost per foot versus price per house
Per-foot pricing lets you compare quotes, but only if both quotes count the same things. Some contractors quote a low per-foot figure and then add corners, outlets, end caps and hangers as extras. Ours includes them. Downspouts, guards, tear-off and wood repair are always separate lines because they vary so much between houses.
Why local gutter quotes disagree
Three St. Pete quotes for the same house can differ by a thousand dollars. The usual reasons:
- Gauge. .027 aluminum is standard; .032 is stiffer and costs more. A cheaper quote may use thinner coil.
- Hanger spacing. Hangers every 24 inches hold a gutter better than every 36. It is cheap to skimp and hard to see from the ground.
- Downspout size. A 2×3 outlet costs less than a 3×4, and on a big roof it overflows.
- Sectional versus seamless. A low price may be for sectional gutters joined every ten feet.
- What is included. Tear-off, haul-away and fascia repair are sometimes left off the first number and added later.
When you compare, ask each company for the gauge, the size, the hanger spacing and a line-by-line list. Ours comes that way.

Cost questions
What is the average cost of seamless gutters in St. Pete?
For a typical single-story St. Petersburg home, about $1,400–$2,800 for 5-inch seamless aluminum gutters with downspouts. Six-inch gutters on a tile-roof home usually run $2,000–$3,600, and two-story homes $2,600–$5,000.
Are seamless gutters more expensive than sectional?
Slightly, per foot. The difference is small on most homes, and seamless runs have no mid-run joints to fail, so they usually cost less over the life of the system.
Do you charge for the estimate?
No. The on-site measure and written quote are free, with no obligation. We call first to set a time.
Is it cheaper to do just the front of the house?
Yes, and plenty of people do. Guttering only the edges that dump water on entries, walkways or the pool deck is a common way to cut cost. We will show you which runs matter most.
