Quick Answer: How Much Does Eavestrough Installation Cost?
For typical full-home projects in Maxima Aluminum LTD’s service areas, 5-inch seamless aluminum eavestrough usually ranges from $8–$13 per linear foot installed, while 6-inch seamless aluminum eavestrough commonly ranges from $13–$17 per linear foot installed, before HST. Most full-home projects are about 200–250 linear feet. The final price depends on measurements, corners, downspouts, removal, access, and optional gutter guards.
Gutter Renovation Cost vs. Full Replacement in Ontario — 2026 Pricing
“Gutter renovation” usually means partial work rather than a full tear-off. Homeowners renovate when the existing system is mostly sound but the roofline needs targeted attention. Common gutter renovation scopes and 2026 West GTA pricing:
Retrofit gutter guards on existing eavestrough in good condition: $9–$18 per linear foot, depending on the Alu-Rex product (T-Rex continuous hanger, DoublePro dual-layer perforated aluminum, or Gutter Clean).
Replace short sections that are sagging, leaking at seams, or damaged: $300 minimum service call, then $12–$18 per linear foot for the replaced portion.
Reseal corners, re-hang loose runs, add downspout extensions without replacing the full system: $300–$800 typical for a straightforward tune-up.
Fascia repair or replacement under existing gutters (common after years of leaking): $8–$14 per linear foot added to the eavestrough work.
Full eavestrough replacement is a separate scope: complete removal of the old system plus new seamless aluminum eavestrough formed on-site. Typical full-home ranges: $2,200–$3,400 for 5-inch, or $2,800–$4,600 for 6-inch with high-flow downspouts (excluding HST).
Which is right for your home? If your eavestrough is 15+ years old, has been patched repeatedly, or is undersized for the roof area, full replacement almost always beats renovation on cost per year of remaining life. If the system is 8–12 years old, still straight and properly fastened, and the main issue is debris or a single leaking corner, targeted renovation makes sense. A quick on-site review confirms which scope fits your home — the difference is usually obvious once we’re on the roof.
2026 Eavestrough Cost in Ontario: Typical Price Per Foot for West GTA Homes
Most homeowners want a realistic number before booking a site visit. This page gives you current 2026 eavestrough and gutter pricing ranges, plus two calculators: one for new seamless aluminum eavestrough installation and one for Alu-Rex Gutter Clean on existing gutters.
Use the tables below as a starting point, then enter your roofline footage, corners, downspouts, removal, and optional Alu-Rex upgrades into the calculator. The result is still a planning estimate, not a final quote. A site visit or photo review lets us confirm measurements, access, downspout routing, materials, and any extra work before pricing is finalized.

What Is Included in These Ranges?
The ranges cover typical residential material and labour for a standard installation: seamless aluminum eavestrough formed on site, standard corners, outlets, elbows, and downspout connections. Final pricing can change based on corner count, downspout count, home height, access, removal of old gutters, gutter guard upgrades, fascia condition, and special material requests.
Why Two Homes with the Same Footage Can Cost Different Amounts
Footage is only one part of the price. A simple bungalow with easy access and few corners lands in a different range than a tall home with tight side yards, many roof sections, old gutters to remove, and several downspout changes. Extra corners add fabrication time. Height changes setup. Access affects labour. Fascia repairs or special finishes can also change the final quote.
How to Use the Eavestrough Cost Calculator
Step 1: Add your total roofline footage
Estimate the linear footage along each fascia where eavestroughs run: front, back, sides, garage sections, bays, and smaller roof areas. A typical full-home replacement is often around 200–250 linear feet.
Step 2: Count the corners
Count every inside and outside corner where the eavestrough turns. Corners take extra cutting, sealing, and shaping, so they affect the total more than many homeowners expect.
Step 3: Enter downspouts by storey
Enter the number of downspouts needed on each level. Second- and third-storey downspouts take more time because access and setup are more involved.
Step 4: Choose optional upgrades
For gutter guards, enter the footage for the Alu-Rex product you are considering. If you do not want gutter guards, leave those fields blank or enter “0.”
The examples below show what roofline footage looks like on a real home. Add the gutter runs, count the corners, and note where downspouts drop by storey.

Quick Measuring Tip
You do not need perfect measurements to start. Pace out the front and back runs, use a property survey, check an older quote, or use rough exterior dimensions from a real-estate listing. The calculator gives a planning range. We confirm the actual measurements before providing a firm written estimate.
What Impacts the Final Price?
Linear footage
More roof edge means more aluminum, more fastening, more labour, and usually more downspout planning.
Corners and miters
Corners take more time than straight runs. A home with many inside and outside corners can cost more than a home with similar footage and a simpler roofline.
Downspouts and height
Downspouts add material and labour. Upper-storey work also requires more setup and safe access.
Removal and disposal
Replacing old eavestroughs means removing and disposing of the existing system. The calculator includes this only when the removal option is selected.
Access and roof complexity
Tight side yards, walkouts, steep grades, decks, landscaping, additions, and complex rooflines can all change the time required. We confirm access before finalizing the quote.
Alu-Rex Gutter Protection Options
Alu-Rex manufactures different products for different situations. Some are best installed with a new eavestrough system, while others are designed for existing gutters that are still in good condition. See our gutter guards service page for a more detailed comparison.
Alu-Rex T-Rex™ — Continuous Hanger System
Best for new installations.T-Rex™ replaces spaced hangers with a continuous aluminum support that runs along the eavestrough. It adds rigidity across the run and can be a good choice when gutter protection and structural support are both part of the project.
Best for heavy-debris areas.DoublePro™ uses two staggered layers of perforated aluminum to help block debris while allowing water through. Not micro-mesh, not microfiltration — a proprietary staggered perforation geometry. It can be useful near mature trees where leaves, seed pods, needles, and roof grit are common.
Alu-Rex Gutter Clean™ — Retrofit for Existing Gutters
Best for existing gutters in good condition.Gutter Clean™ installs over existing eavestroughs without replacing the trough. It is worth considering when the current gutters are straight, properly sloped, securely fastened, and the main issue is debris buildup.

Pricing and minimum charges
What is the average gutter price per foot in Ontario?
For many West GTA residential projects, 5-inch seamless aluminum eavestrough typically falls around $8–$13 per linear foot installed, while 6-inch seamless aluminum eavestrough often falls around $13–$17 per linear foot installed. Prices exclude HST. Corners, downspouts, removal, access, and upgrades can change the final total.
Do you have a minimum charge for small repairs or partial replacements?

Calculator accuracy and measuring
How accurate is the Eavestrough Cost Calculator?
The calculator gives a ballpark range based on roofline length, corners, downspouts, removal, and selected upgrades. A site visit or photo review is still needed to confirm measurements, access, fascia condition, drainage layout, and any extra work before a firm written quote is issued.
How do I measure roofline length?
Measure the straight runs along the fascia where gutters will be installed. Include the front, back, sides, garage sections, bays, and smaller roof areas. Then count every inside and outside corner. The closer your measurements are, the closer the calculator result will be.
What is included and what changes pricing
What affects the cost per foot?
Total footage, number of corners, downspout count, fascia condition, home height, access, removal, and upgrades all affect the final price. Options such as gutter guards or aluminum cladding can increase the total.
Do estimates include parts and labour?
Yes. The calculator includes typical residential materials and professional installation by Maxima Aluminum LTD. Final written estimates confirm exactly what is included, including removal, disposal, downspouts, accessories, and any added scope.
Are downspouts included in the price?
Yes, when downspouts are entered into the calculator. Downspout count, storey height, routing, and discharge location all affect the estimate.
Do you remove and dispose of old gutters?
For full replacement projects, removal and disposal are often included when that option is selected or confirmed in the written estimate. For partial repairs, what is included is confirmed during follow-up.
Materials, upgrades, and service area
What materials do you install?
We install seamless aluminum eavestrough systems in 5-inch and 6-inch K-style profiles with matching aluminum downspouts. Alu-Rex upgrades include T-Rex, DoublePro, and Gutter Clean. Half-round profiles are available on request for selected projects.
Can I add Alu-Rex gutter guards to the quote?
Yes. Enter the footage for the Alu-Rex option you are considering. The best fit depends on whether the gutters are new or existing, the roofline, nearby trees, debris exposure, and the condition of the current system.
Do you offer financing for projects estimated with this calculator?
If the project qualifies, financing options may be available for gutters, soffit, fascia, and siding. After the quote request, we can share current programs and payment examples if applicable.
How long does installation take after I approve the quote?
Many standard eavestrough installations can be completed in a single working day once scheduled, but timing depends on season, weather, access, material availability, project size, and current crew capacity. The expected schedule is confirmed after the scope has been reviewed and the written estimate is approved.
Why use this calculator instead of just calling for a quote?
The calculator gives you a realistic planning range before a site visit. It is useful for budgeting and comparing options. A firm quote still requires confirmed measurements, site conditions, materials, and scope.
