- Labor if billed hourly: about $50 to $125 per hour
Height changes the price
Ladder work on a two-story house takes longer and needs more safety gear. National averages put a typical repair at about $223 for a one-story home, $357 for two stories and $479 for three or more.
Fascia damage adds to the job
When gutters overflow for years, water soaks the fascia board behind them and it starts to rot. Rotted fascia has to be replaced before the gutter can be re-hung securely, so we check it on every repair estimate and price it separately.
When repair stops making sense
If you're fixing leaks in several spots every year, or the gutters are sectional and 20+ years old, new seamless gutters often cost less over time. Our repair-or-replace guide walks through the signs.
