Prices JUST UPDATED. Indicative ballpark figures in rand, rounded, based on typical South African market rates. They are not our prices or quotations, and no contractor is bound by them. Ask whether VAT is included, and check what each quotation covers, such as scaffolding, rubble removal and call-out fees.
Which Material?
- Seamless aluminium. Made to length on site, no joins, will not rust.
- Galvanised steel. Strong, but can rust, especially near the coast.
- PVC. Lowest cost, easy to fit, can fade and become brittle in strong sun.
What Affects the Price
- Material. Aluminium costs more than PVC but lasts longer.
- Length and corners. Each corner, stop-end and outlet adds cost.
- Downpipes. Number and length of downpipes.
- Fascia condition. Rotten fascias must be replaced before new gutters go up.
- Height. Double-storey homes may need scaffolding.
What a Quotation Should Include
- Metres. Total gutter length and profile size.
- Material and colour. Aluminium, steel or PVC, and colour.
- Downpipes and outlets. How many, where they discharge.
- Removal. Taking down and disposing of old gutters.
- Warranty. Workmanship warranty in writing.

Get Roofing QuotesFrequently Asked Questions
Are seamless gutters worth the extra cost?
Fewer joins mean fewer leaks, and aluminium does not rust, so they usually last longer than steel or PVC.
How many downpipes do I need?
It depends on roof area and gutter length. The contractor should size them for heavy summer storms.
Can new gutters go on old fascias?
Only if the fascias are sound. Rotten or warped boards should be replaced first.
Is gutter cleaning included?
Not usually. Ask about a maintenance visit once the gutters are in.
