Here is a copper gutter job I did for a nice couple in Forest Grove. They have been working hard to personally remodel the inside, but got help to do the outside work. This is listed on the Historical Registry, so they needed to make sure the remodeling would be done right.

The aluminum gutters they had were hung from thin aluminum straps nailed on the roof, and some had fallen off after a few years, so they had the painters tear off the rest of the gutters and downspouts. They had paid $23k just to have their house paint removed. And another $13k to have it primed and a 4 tone paint job done. Their house is on the Historical registry, so they were perplexed to figure out how to solve their gutter problems.

They had spent a few years trying to find a gutter contractor to even give them a bid for the work they needed, but were unsuccessful. They were thrilled to finally find our web site and see how we have already done this kind of work on houses that were originally designed not to be able to mount gutters onto.

In our original bid to add the drip edge that the roofers neglected to install, and to build out the eaves of the roof in order to mount the 175' of new aluminum gutters onto, the downspouts, and the No-clog options had come to $4,600 total.

After seeing our bid, the Kistlers then asked us for a price on 16oz copper gutters with the mitered endcapping. This added only $3,200 more to the cost, for a total of $7,800. They put down $3,900 to have us schedule it in, even though we were booked 3 months out. They latter added the heavy gauge 20oz copper gutters to our bid. The final cost was $8,063.10 for everything after we recalculated the cost to reflect only the materials used. So the heavy-duty copper only added $263.10 to the original bid

Click on the photos above to see more clarity and detail. I had taken over 300 photos, so I spaced out this project over 8 separate web pages, with the most detailed info on this web site for gutter fabrication. There is also photos from several years after installation.
