Price examples gutter replacement
As you can see from the table above, prices for gutter replacement vary greatly. The total price for the work depends mainly on what work needs to be done or not. We have created some price examples for you to give you a better understanding of these varying costs by type of work.
Minor work
With minor damage to the gutter, complete gutter replacement is often not necessary. The damage can then be repaired locally. This saves you the cost of replacement. Just keep in mind that it is important to have your gutters maintained and cleaned periodically after the repair. A repair to your gutter will cost you a maximum of about €140.

Cost-saving replacement
Your gutter is badly damaged and/or sagging and therefore in need of replacement. If you enjoy doing odd jobs yourself and are not afraid of working at height, you can choose to do some of the work yourself. For example, remove the existing gutter yourself. This will save you quite a bit in overall costs. For example, you will only pay for the new installation of a plastic gutter. This will cost you between €575,- and €800,-.
