Gutter Installation And Replacement
Gutters Planned Around the Roof They Drain
American Gutter Service installs and replaces seamless gutters for homeowners in Tigard as part of our Portland-metro service area. Our work is focused on gutters, downspouts, gutter guards, and the roof-edge details that hold them.
The Tigard homes we have worked on range from single-story houses with long, simple eaves to two-story homes with several roof levels. Those homes do not need the same system. Before we recommend a size, we look at how much roof feeds each run, where valleys concentrate water, where outlets and downspouts can go, and whether the fascia is sound enough to hold a new gutter.
If your current gutters only need a fix, our gutter repair service may be the better call. If they are sagging, leaking at several joints, or undersized, a full gutter replacement usually makes more sense.

Tell us what your current gutters are doing and where you see overflow or leaks. We will measure the roofline, recommend a gutter size and downspout layout, and put the scope in a written estimate.
Installation Scope
What a Gutter Installation Includes
Your written estimate lists the parts that apply to your home. On a typical replacement, that covers the following.
Removal and Haul-Away
When a replacement is part of the job, we take down the old gutters and downspouts and remove them from the property.
Fascia and Roof-Edge Check
With the old system down, we inspect the fascia and rafter tails. If we find soft or damaged wood, we show you before a new gutter covers it.
Seamless Runs Formed On Site
Gutters are formed to length at your home, so straight runs have no mid-span joints. Corners, outlets, and end caps are still connections, and we seal each one.
How our seamless installation works →Hidden Hangers and Proper Pitch
Hidden hangers hold the gutter from inside the trough, so there are no spikes across the face. Each run is pitched toward its outlet.
Outlets and Downspouts
Outlets and downspouts are placed where the water can leave the roof and be carried away from the house, sized for the roof area they serve.
See downspout installation →Flow Check and Cleanup
Before we finish, we check flow, connections, and discharge, then clean up the work area and walk you through the finished system.
Sizing The System
5-Inch or 6-Inch Gutters?
Bigger is not automatically better. The right size depends on how much water reaches each run and how quickly it can get out.
The common residential profile. It suits many single-story homes and moderate roof areas, and is often paired with 2×3 downspouts.
More room for concentrated runoff from large roof areas, steep pitches, long runs, and valleys. It is often paired with 3×4 downspouts.
What changes the answer
- Roof area feeding each run. A long eave that collects a large roof plane carries more water than its length suggests.
- Pitch and valleys. Steep roofs and valleys send water to one spot quickly, which can overshoot or overload a smaller gutter.
- Upper roofs draining onto lower ones. Common on two-story homes, this adds water to the lower gutter.
- Outlet count. A larger gutter with too few outlets can still overflow, so size and downspouts are planned together.

From Roof Edge To Ground
Downspouts, Outlets, and the Roof Edge
A gutter only collects water. What happens at the outlet, down the wall, and at the ground decides whether that water ends up where it should.
Downspout size
2×3 downspouts work with many standard residential systems. 3×4 downspouts move more water and are often used with 6-inch gutters or where a large roof area drains to one corner.
Outlets and cleanouts
We place outlets where each run can drain without water backing up along the gutter. On treed lots, a cleanout or leaf trap on the downspout gives you a place to clear debris without taking the downspout apart.
Discharge
Water released right beside the foundation can soak back toward the house. We plan where each downspout discharges. Our guide on where downspouts should drain covers the options.
Fascia and drip edge
Gutters need solid wood behind them. Where roof-edge water runs behind the gutter, drip edge or flashing can help, but we recommend it only when the roof edge calls for it.
Clear Component Pricing
Gutter Installation Pricing
These are our current component prices, not an average-house quote. Your total depends on footage, gutter size, downspouts, corners, stories, access, removal, and the condition of the roof edge.
| Component | Price |
|---|---|
| 5-inch K-style seamless gutter, white | $7.75/LF |
| 6-inch K-style seamless gutter, white | $8.75/LF |
| 2×3 corrugated downspout | $6.50/LF |
| 3×4 corrugated downspout | $7.00/LF |
| Downspout cleanout (2×3 or 3×4) | $75 each |
| Existing gutter removal | $1.00/LF |
| Premium color upgrade | +$300/project |
| Drip edge or flashing, when required | $7.00/LF |
| Fascia replacement | $10.00/LF, $250 min. |
| Minimum installation project | $450 |
LF means linear foot, measured along the roof edge for gutters and down the wall for downspouts. As an example, 150 feet of white 5-inch gutter is $1,162.50 for the gutter runs alone. Downspouts, cleanouts, removal, and any roof-edge work are added from the same list.

Colors And Materials
Aluminum Gutter Colors and Materials
Our residential seamless gutters are aluminum, formed on site. White is the standard finish. A premium finish adds $300 per project, not per foot.
- WhiteStandard
- BlackPremium
- BronzePremium
- BrownPremium
- Copper MetallicPremium
Screen colors are approximate, so we confirm your choice with physical samples where possible. Copper Metallic is a painted aluminum finish, not real copper; real copper gutter systems are available by custom estimate. Matching a different trim color, like the blue system shown above? Ask during your estimate and we will confirm what is available.

Optional Gutter Protection
Gutter Guards for Tree-Covered Lots
Several of the Tigard homes on this page sit near tall firs and evergreen hedges. On lots like that, adding guards while the new gutters go up can cut down on clogs. Open lots with little tree cover usually see less benefit, so we only recommend guards where the debris calls for them.
Easy Lock
$6.00/LFStandard non-mesh protection. A practical option for leaves and larger debris where fine needles are not a major problem.
LeafBlaster Pro
$10.00/LFStainless-steel micro-mesh, better suited to fir, cedar, and pine needles and to heavily wooded properties.
What to Expect
Guards reduce how much debris gets into the gutter. They do not make a roofline maintenance-free. Debris can still collect on top, so plan on periodic checks.

Common Questions
Tigard Gutter Installation FAQs
Should I choose 5-inch or 6-inch gutters?
It depends on the roof area feeding each run, the pitch, valleys, run length, and how many outlets the run can have. 5-inch K-style works on many homes and is often paired with 2×3 downspouts. 6-inch is useful for larger roof areas, steep pitches, long runs, and valleys, and is often paired with 3×4 downspouts. We measure before recommending either.
Are seamless gutters completely seam-free?
No. Seamless gutters are formed in continuous lengths, which removes joints along straight runs. Corners, outlets, and end caps are still connections, and each one is sealed during installation.
How much does gutter installation cost?
White 5-inch seamless gutter is $7.75 per linear foot and white 6-inch is $8.75 per linear foot. Downspouts are $6.50 per foot for 2×3 and $7.00 per foot for 3×4, and the minimum installation project is $450. Removal, corners, stories, access, color, and roof-edge work affect the total, which is shown on your written estimate.
How long does installation take?
Many straightforward residential installations are completed in one working day. Larger rooflines, multiple structures, difficult access, or fascia repair can take longer.
What happens if the fascia behind my old gutters is damaged?
We show you what we found and explain the recommended repair before a new gutter covers it. Fascia replacement is $10.00 per linear foot with a $250 minimum.
Do I need gutter guards?
Not always. Guards make the most sense on lots with heavy tree cover, especially fir, cedar, or pine needles. They reduce debris entering the gutter but do not remove the need for occasional checks. See our gutter guard installation page to compare options.
Can you match my trim color?
White is standard, and premium finishes including black, bronze, brown, and Copper Metallic add $300 per project. If you need a different color, ask during your estimate and we will confirm availability, using physical samples where possible.
