New gutters on a typical Sioux Falls house cost about $1,800 to $3,600. That is seamless aluminum, installed, on the 150 to 200 feet of gutter most single-family homes carry. Everything else on this page is smaller money: a cleaning, a resealed corner, a downspout run out to the lawn.

What a real job adds up to
Ranges only tell you so much, so here is how they land on one house: a single-story ranch with 150 feet of gutter, 5-inch aluminum, and one soft fascia board found when the old gutters came off.
| Line | Cost |
|---|---|
| Gutters and downspouts, 150 feet | $1,800 to $2,700 |
| Replacing 12 feet of rotted fascia | $84 to $264 |
| Contractor excise tax at 2% | About $38 to $59 |
| Total | About $1,920 to $3,020 |
Removal of the old gutters may be a separate line on top of that, and a second story or a cut-up roofline moves the whole thing up. But a quote for this house at $4,600 is worth a question, and one at $900 is worth a different kind of question.

Cost by the length of your rooflines
Gutter work is priced by the foot, so your rooflines decide the total, along with which rooflines need gutters at all. Most homes run 100 to 200 feet, roughly a tenth of the floor area.
| Gutter length | Installed cost |
|---|---|
| 100 feet | $1,200 to $1,800 |
| 150 feet | $1,800 to $2,700 |
| 200 feet | $2,400 to $3,600 |
What pushes the price up
- Six-inch gutters and 3×4 downspouts on large or steep roof planes
- A second story, which means taller ladders and slower work
- A cut-up roofline, since every corner is a sealed joint
- Fascia repair, the line that grows once the old gutters come off. See what fascia work should cost
- Removal and disposal of the old system
- South Dakota contractor excise tax at 2%
Extra downspouts are the cheap fix that gets overlooked. Adding an outlet costs far less than widening every run, and on a roof that overflows in one spot it often does more.
Why the prices online are lower
Prices online put gutter installation at $6 to $12 a foot. Those averages leave out removal, disposal and a contractor overhead, so read them as a floor. Your quote will sit above them.
Nobody can price your house from a phone call either. A number given over the phone or from the curb is a guess until somebody measures.
Guards cost more than the gutters
This is where the money gets strange. Local installers fit guards for about $7 to $11 a foot, so $1,050 to $1,650 on a 150-foot house. National brands charge about $42 a foot for the same length of roof, which is roughly $6,300. Store micro-mesh runs about $2 a foot if you fit it yourself.
Keep guards on their own line in any quote, so the gutter work can be judged on its own. And a guard price that expires the same day is a sales tactic, not a discount. The warranties differ as much as the prices. Our guard cost page sets the brands beside local prices.
The smaller jobs
Cleaning is the one most houses here need twice a year, once after the maple seeds and cottonwood fluff, once after the leaves drop. Guards add $30 to $80 to a visit if they have to come off, a packed underground drain line $25 to $75, and a roof steeper than 8:12 another 15% to 30%.
Repairs are cheaper than people expect. A failed corner or a leaking end cap is a resealing job, not a reason to replace 150 feet of sound aluminum. Most leaks are repair work, and finding where the water gets out takes a hose and ten minutes.
Comparing two quotes
Two prices for the same house can sit $1,000 apart because they are not pricing the same job. One includes removal and the other does not. One moves the downspouts and the other reuses them where they are.
Our gutter quote checklist goes through this line by line. A complete quote names the gutter size and metal thickness, the number and size of downspouts and where each one drains, removal and disposal, any fascia work, guards as a separate option, and both warranties.

Questions about gutter costs in Sioux Falls
How much do gutters cost in Sioux Falls?
Seamless aluminum gutters cost about $12 to $18 per linear foot installed, or roughly $1,800 to $3,600 for the 150 to 200 feet on a typical home. Six-inch gutters, a second story and fascia repair raise the price.
How much does gutter cleaning cost?
About $119 to $234 for a typical house, or $0.95 to $2.25 a foot in 2026. Two-story houses cost more.
How much does it cost to fix a leaking gutter?
Resealing seams costs about $100 to $350, and a typical gutter repair about $195 to $625 in 2026.
How much do gutter guards cost?
Local guard installs run about $7 to $11 a foot. National brands cost far more, around $42 a foot for LeafFilter in 2026. Store micro-mesh costs about $2 a foot to fit yourself.
Why are online gutter prices lower than my quote?
Online averages of $6 to $12 a foot usually exclude removal, disposal and overhead. A measured local quote includes them, so it lands higher.
Is sales tax included in a gutter quote?
Contractors owe South Dakota 2% contractor excise tax on the job, and state law lets them show it as its own line. A quote that leaves it off is not really cheaper.
So what should you expect to pay?
For most houses in Sioux Falls, new gutters land between $1,800 and $3,600, cleaning between $119 and $234, and a repair under $625. Guards are the one place where the same job can cost $1,000 or $6,000, so price them separately and take your time. A quote far outside those numbers is not automatically wrong, but it should come with a reason you can follow.
