Gutter Installation Pricing in Houston, TX
We can’t provide exact pricing online because every Houston home is different. The best way to get an accurate quote is with a free consultation where our team can assess your specific needs.
Key factors that affect your quote: Home height and roof pitch, material choice (aluminum vs copper), gutter size (5-inch, 6-inch, or 7-inch), and whether fascia repairs are needed. Fascia condition is often the biggest variable—Houston’s heat and humidity can take a toll on wood fascia, so our team checks this carefully during every inspection.
If your old gutters need removal, we’ll handle that and disposal too. Ready to learn more? Schedule your free consultation today for a detailed quote customized for your home.

Houston’s Climate Challenges
Year-Round Gutter Protection
Spring & Summer
Houston gets over 50 inches of rain annually, and most of it comes between April and September. During storm season, we see gutters overwhelmed by high-volume downpours—sometimes two inches in under an hour. When gutters can’t channel that water properly, it can overflow onto fascia boards (the wooden trim behind your gutters), potentially causing rot over time. Regular inspections help catch clogs early, and LeafFilter can help prevent debris buildup that restricts water flow during intense Gulf Coast storms.
Fall & Winter
Houston’s mild winters stay humid, which means wet leaves and roof granules don’t dry out—they sit in gutters breaking down for months. By late winter, that decomposing layer holds moisture against your home’s trim. We recommend checking gutters after fall storms and before spring rains return. Live oak and magnolia debris are common here, and they compact quickly when wet. LeafFilter helps keep that organic material out so gutters can drain properly year-round, even during our wettest months.
Did You Know?
Just a small rainstorm can divert hundreds of gallons of water to your foundation if your gutters are clogged. Houston receives an average annual precipitation of 49.8 inches, making proper gutter maintenance essential for protecting your home’s foundation from water damage. With this significant level of rainfall, clogged gutters can quickly lead to costly foundation issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
If your gutters are sagging, leaking, or pulling away from your home, it’s a clear sign you may need new gutters. In Houston, where the area receives over 50 inches of rainfall annually, these conditions can accelerate wear and tear on your gutter system. Timely replacement or repair helps protect your foundation, siding, and landscaping from water damage.
Aluminum is a popular material choice for gutter installations in Houston because it’s lightweight and helps resist rust—an important feature given our Gulf Coast humidity and frequent heavy rainfall. Houston homeowners often choose aluminum gutters because they help maintain their appearance over time, even with the wear and tear from our subtropical climate.
In Houston, most professional gutter installations are completed in one day. Larger homes or complex rooflines may require additional time. The timeline can also vary based on whether you’re replacing an existing system or installing new gutters. Houston’s afternoon thunderstorms can occasionally delay outdoor work, so installers will adjust scheduling if weather becomes a factor.
LeafFilter uses Sherwin Williams Plastilure to match your existing gutters or select a new color that complements your Houston home’s exterior. Our custom gutter system ensures a perfect fit for your property.
The right gutter size for your Houston home depends on your roof area and local weather patterns. Most Houston homeowners choose 6-inch gutters because they handle heavy rainfall better during intense storms and tropical weather. Homes with roof areas under 1,500 square feet may work with 5-inch gutters, while larger homes sometimes need 6-inch or even 7-inch gutters to manage Houston’s 50+ inches of annual rainfall.
Yes, new gutters require regular cleaning and maintenance to function properly. In Houston, where the area receives over 40 inches of rainfall annually and faces seasonal debris from oak trees and other vegetation, homeowners typically clean gutters 2-4 times per year. Pairing your gutter installation with LeafFilter’s gutter guard system helps minimize upkeep. LeafFilter is engineered to protect your gutters from clogs and help reduce the need for frequent gutter cleaning.
Yes, gutters can be installed on steep or complex roofs. Houston homes feature diverse architectural styles—from traditional ranch and Colonial designs to modern builds—and professional installers have experience adapting gutter systems to fit each unique structure. With Houston receiving over 50 inches of rainfall annually, proper gutter installation is essential regardless of roof complexity to help protect your home from water damage.
Gutters protect your home by directing rainwater away from your foundation, walls, and landscaping. In Houston, where the subtropical climate brings over 50 inches of rain annually and tropical storms during hurricane season, properly functioning gutters are essential for helping prevent foundation damage and soil erosion. Houston’s expansive clay soil makes this protection especially critical.
LeafFilter backs all gutter installations with a lifetime transferable warranty. This warranty covers both the gutter system and the installation workmanship, giving Houston homeowners peace of mind that their investment is protected for the long term.
Yes, we remove and dispose of old gutters as part of our installation process. Our team handles the entire removal and cleans up all debris before installing your new system. In Houston, we often replace gutters damaged by the area’s heavy rainfall, high humidity, and severe weather. During removal, we assess the fascia and underlying structure to ensure everything is in good condition for installation.
