Gutter Installation Cost in the Twin Cities (2026)
Gutters are easy to ignore — until an ice dam or a wet basement reminds you why they matter. Here’s what new gutters cost in the Twin Cities in 2026 and what changes the price.
What gutters cost in the metro
- Seamless aluminum: ~$8–$16 per linear foot installed
- Steel: ~$12–$20 per linear foot
- Copper: premium, $25+ per linear foot
- A typical home runs $1,500–$4,000
What affects your price
- Total linear footage and number of downspouts
- One- vs. two-story (harder access)
- Gutter guards
- Fascia or soffit repair found during the job
Are gutter guards worth it in Minnesota?
Good guards cut cleaning and help manage leaves — but no guard fully “solves” ice dams. Proper attic insulation and ventilation matter just as much here.
Why gutters matter
They protect your foundation, siding, and landscaping, and help control the meltwater that causes ice dams.
