What sets the price
Eight things that move a Charleston gutter estimate
Plenty of people search for a seamless gutter cost per foot in Charleston, South Carolina. Footage is only one piece. A Solutionist measures and writes down all eight of these on every visit.
Factor 1
Linear feet of gutter
The biggest line on any estimate. We measure every eave, including short runs over a bay window, garage or back porch, and form each run on our truck to its exact length.
Factor 2
Stories and access
A one-story ranch goes up quickly. A three-story home, a steep roof or a tight downtown lot takes more ladder work, setup and crew time.
Factor 3
Corners and roof shape
Valleys, dormers and lots of corners mean more mitered pieces, more end caps and more labor to make every joint watertight.
Factor 4
6 or 7 inch
We form 6 inch and 7 inch seamless gutters. Six inch is our standard on Lowcountry homes. Seven inch, which costs more, goes where a big roof plane gathers a lot of water.
Factor 5
The metal
Aluminum and colored aluminum suit most homes. Copper is the premium choice, and galvalume and galvanized steel are also available.
Factor 6
Downspouts
Every downspout adds material and labor. Raised homes need long drops strapped to the structure, and extensions or added outlets are listed separately.
Factor 7
Fascia behind the gutter
Soft or rotted board found behind old gutters is replaced through our fascia board service and written up as its own line.
Factor 8
Gutter guards
BroGuard stainless micro-mesh is its own line, so you can compare the free estimate with and without it.

Lowcountry houses
Why the same footage prices differently from house to house
Four common Lowcountry house types, and how each one changes the work.
- 01
Raised homes on piers or pilings
The gutter sits a story higher than it looks, and every long downspout is strapped to the structure and carried past the edge of the house.
- 02
Porches and piazzas
A piazza adds short runs, corners and a downspout down a post. See our porch and piazza guide.
- 03
Two and three story homes
Height means more setup. An upper roof emptying onto a lower one usually calls for an added downspout or a larger lower run.
- 04
Metal roofs near the marsh
Standing seam metal throws water fast, so the gutter is sized and set where the stream lands. Read gutters for metal roofs.

Gutter guards
Is gutter guard worth it in Charleston? Weigh these six things
We install one guard, BroGuard stainless micro-mesh, and we would rather you buy it because it fits your house. The honest answer depends on things you can check yourself.
- What hangs over your roofUnder pines and live oaks, gutters fill with pine straw in fall and leaves, catkins and pollen in spring. Open sky overhead may need only a cleaning schedule.
- How many cleanings you would needMost Charleston homes need two cleanings a year, and heavy canopy often means three or four. Our cleaning timing guide explains why. The more cleanings, the more a guard saves.
- Who climbs the ladderIf you clean your own one-story gutters, a guard saves you less. On a two-story or raised home, fewer trips up a tall ladder is a real benefit.
- The shape your gutters are inA guard belongs on a gutter that is clean, sloped and firmly hung. Sagging, leaking or undersized runs get fixed or replaced first.
- What a guard will not doNo guard is maintenance free. Pollen and storm debris can sit on top, so plan a quick check after the pine drop and the spring pollen.
- How long you plan to stayBroGuard is stainless steel with a limited lifetime warranty, so it suits a house you plan to keep. Selling soon? A cleaning may be enough.
Salt air, Summerville and the islands
Gutter installation cost in Summerville, SC versus the islands
In Summerville, Goose Creek and Ladson the pines are the story: heavy pine straw and two-story homes whose upper roofs drain onto lower ones. On Isle of Palms, Folly Beach and Sullivan’s Island, and along the marsh, salt air comes first. Aluminum cannot rust, so it is usually where we start near the water. Galvalume and galvanized steel suit inland homes, and copper gets copper downspouts and hangers so its runoff never lands on another metal. On the Charleston peninsula, historic homes often call for half-round gutters, and the historic district gutter guide covers what to check first. The coastal and raised home gutters page goes deeper on metals near the water.

Charleston Gutter Cost Questions, Answered
It depends on the house. Linear feet, the number of stories and corners, porches and piazzas, gutter size, metal, downspouts, fascia repairs and guards all change the total. So we measure first and leave a free, itemized written estimate with the real number for your home.
Because footage is only part of the job. A long, simple run on a one-story ranch and the same footage on a raised island home with long downspouts are very different jobs. A per-foot price would leave out height, corners, downspouts and fascia, so we measure and put it all in writing.
No. We form 6 and 7 inch seamless gutters. Six inch is our standard on Lowcountry homes because our summer storms dump a lot of rain fast, and 7 inch goes on very large roof areas and commercial buildings. Each run gets the size its share of the roof calls for.
For many homes under pines and live oaks, yes, especially two-story and raised homes where every cleaning means a tall ladder. With few trees nearby, a cleaning schedule may cost less. BroGuard stainless micro-mesh is priced as its own line on your free estimate, so you can compare both options before you decide.
By the footage of gutter being covered and the condition of the gutters underneath. We clean and flush the gutters first, and if a run sags or leaks we price that repair so the guard goes on a sound gutter. Adding BroGuard when new gutters go up is the simplest time to do it.
Yes. Financing is available through a trusted third-party provider, which makes the credit decision and sets the terms. Start with your free written estimate so you know the exact amount, then ask your Solutionist about current payment options while you review it together.
