Although many businesses provide an hourly rate, there are also those that quote by the metre. The typical rate that they give is approximately $28/m.
Where do these prices come from?
All prices stated in this article are based on FY 2016 pricing data compiled by ServiceSeeking.com.au. The figures resulted from a comprehensive analysis of quotes submitted by Guttering Specialists on the site from July 2015 to July 2016.
Factors that affect the price
Here are some of the things that determine the cost of a guttering job. Knowing these can help you prepare for the expenses.
Material
Gutters come in different types — PVC, Zincalume, aluminium, and stainless steel are the most commonly used in the country. Of these, stainless steel is the priciest. PVC, on the other hand, is the most cost-effective.
Type of job
Of course, the price of simple gutter repairs varies greatly from the price of a complete gutter replacement or a new installation work. Always be specific with the type of job you need done so that businesses can give you more accurate estimates.
Length
As mentioned before, some businesses charge a per-metre rate. This means that the longer the gutter is, the more expensive your job becomes. This can also be applied to hourly rates as longer gutters take more time to install.
Accessibility
If businesses need a scaffolding to reach your roof and extra materials to complete the job, then don’t be surprised if the amount they charge you is higher than the average.
