Wood Gutters - This gutter type was once considered a traditional construction system. Now this type is very rare except in restoration work. These can also be expensive running anywhere from $12 per linear foot to $20, depending on the wood type.

Continuous Aluminum Gutters - Considered the most common product used today, this gutter holds more water than traditional wood gutters. Although this type is generally recommended, one disadvantage of this material is that they may deform when a heavy ladder is leaned up against them. This can be easily avoided by careful use of ladders.

Vinyl and Plastic - These materials are commonly used and often sold in do-it-yourself hardware stores. This type of gutter is easy to install yourself. If properly installed, this product is a good product. Vinyl gutters do not rust or rot, are the easiest to cut and can be installed by you, over a weekend. The downside of these materials is that they can become brittle with age or in extreme cold. Even though vinyl or plastic gutters can cost only $3 to $5 per 10 ft. in length, they can end up costing $3 to $5 per linear foot when you factor in couplings, hangers and downspouts.

Integral Gutters - Popular in the 60’s, this type of gutter worked by using the end of the rafters and fascia on a sloped roof to form this system. The advantage of this gutter is that it holds more water than most other gutter types. The disadvantage to this type of gutter is the potential for leaks, which can result in damage to the framing, fascia, soffit and sheathing of the roof. To prevent this damage from happening, these gutters should be inspected every few years. If you have this gutter type and find that the risk and maintenance are too great, it is possible to convert this gutter into a standard configuration at the time of re-gutter.

Steel Gutters - Most homeowners choose these types of gutters. Galvanized steel gutters tend to be the most economical. The price of these gutters range from $4 to $8 per linear foot installed. Although steel gutters prove to be more durable and can withstand ladders and fallen branches, even galvanized steel can eventually rust through. Stainless steel gutters are strong, rust-free and can maintain their high sheen for years. As they say, “you get what you pay for” and for this type of gutter, that is definitely true. The cost of this type is about $20 per linear foot.
