Gutter replacement · Portland & SW Washington
When patching stops working, we take the old system down, check the fascia, and roll‑form new seamless aluminum gutters on site, pitched to outlets and sized for Portland’s winter rain.
Updated October 2026 · Prices current October 2026 · All Season Continuous Gutters & Roof Care
Replacing gutters in Portland with All Season Continuous Gutters & Roof Care costs $8 to $12 per foot for a complete seamless aluminum system with outlets, corners and downspouts. A single‑story home with about 150 feet of 5‑inch gutter typically comes to $1,200–$1,500. Rotted fascia, unusual profiles and tall or steep rooflines raise the price.
Published Portland guides quote anywhere from $4 to $30 a foot because they average many companies and many homes. Ours is one crew’s actual rate card, and the gutter cost calculator applies it to your roofline in about two minutes.
Preliminary ranges, not a quote. A person on our team confirms every price before work is booked.
If your gutters fail one or two tests, a repair visit from $295 usually makes more sense. Fail three or more, and you are paying to patch a system that is wearing out everywhere at once.
| Test | Repair it if | Replace it if |
|---|---|---|
| Age & material | Aluminum under about 20 years that still holds its shape. | Galvanized steel near 20 years, aluminum past 20–30 with failing joints, or vinyl that has cracked. |
| Leaks | One or two corners or end caps drip. | Sectional gutters leaking at seam after seam along the run. |
| Sagging | A few hangers pulled loose from solid wood. | Sags come back because the fascia behind them is soft or rotted. |
| Rust & holes | A pinhole or a single rusted spot. | Rust through the bottom of a steel channel in more than one place. |
| Overflow | Water spills only when the gutters are full of needles and leaves. | Clean gutters still overflow in a steady rain because 5‑inch is too small for that roof plane. |
| Pitch | One short run holds a little water. | Long runs hold standing water because they were hung flat or backward. |
The first sign is rarely a broken gutter. It is what the water leaves behind on the house and in the yard.
Should you replace 20‑year‑old gutters? Often, yes. The International Association of Certified Home Inspectors rates galvanized steel gutters at about 20 years and aluminum at 20 to 40+. Sectional systems usually fail at the seams first, because every joint is a place for sealant to dry out. Seamless runs only have joints at corners and outlets.

What we install. Won’t rust, rolls seamless on site, and holds Portland’s wet winters well.
Strong, but the coating wears through in standing water and rusts from the inside out.
Cheap to buy, but sectional joints and brittle cold‑weather plastic are what fail.
The long‑life option, usually chosen for historic or high‑end homes.
How long it takes depends on the size and height of the home, how complex the roofline is, how many downspouts it needs and how much fascia needs work. Your written estimate tells you what to expect before we start.
Replacement is the cheapest moment to fix an undersized system. Most Portland homes do fine with 5‑inch K‑style. Large roof planes, valleys that pour into one short run, and steep pitches often need 6‑inch gutters with 3×4 downspouts, which also clog less under firs and maples.
Oregon is one of the states still sized with NOAA Atlas 2 design‑storm data. NOAA’s new Atlas 15 is replacing it, so we size from roof area and local rainfall rather than a rule of thumb.

Ask us a questionWe charge $8 to $12 per foot for a complete seamless aluminum system with outlets, corners and downspouts: $8–$10 for 5‑inch K‑style and $10–$12 for 6‑inch or our 6‑inch fascia profile. A single‑story home with about 150 feet of 5‑inch gutter typically costs $1,200–$1,500.
Often, yes. Galvanized steel gutters last about 20 years and aluminum 20 to 40+, according to InterNACHI. If 20‑year‑old gutters leak at several seams, sag over soft fascia or overflow when clean, replacement usually costs less than repeated repairs.
Repair when the problem is local: one leaking corner, a few loose hangers, a crushed downspout. Replace when the same failures show up along the whole system, the fascia behind it is rotting, or clean gutters still overflow because they are too small.
Not always. Sound gutters can often stay or be detached and reset. If your gutters are near the end of their life, replacing them right after the new roof avoids paying to reset an old system.
Most Portland homes do well with 5‑inch K‑style. Large roof planes, valleys that dump into one run and steep pitches often need 6‑inch gutters with 3×4 downspouts. The gutter sizing calculator on our site works it out from your roof area.
It depends on the size and height of the home, the number of corners and downspouts, and how much fascia needs replacing. Your written estimate tells you what to expect before work starts.
New gutters and downspouts on a one‑ or two‑family home generally don’t need a building permit in Portland. Work on drywells or underground drain pipe can need a plumbing permit.
If your home is in a City of Portland mandatory disconnection area and your downspouts were disconnected, reconnecting them to the combined sewer is prohibited without City approval under City Code 17.37. We plan discharge to stay within those rules.
We check the fascia once the old gutters are off. Soft or rotted boards are replaced before the new runs go up, which typically adds $250–$850 depending on how much wood is affected.
Yes. Every installation we do carries a lifetime warranty on our workmanship.
If firs or maples hang over the roof, replacement is the easiest time to add them. Our gutter guards run $8.25–$15.95 per foot depending on the system, and they cut down on cleanings without making gutters maintenance‑free.
