Questions

Common questions

What does eavestrough guards cost in Canada?

Nationally, most quotes fall between $6 and $22 per foot installed. Indicative national ranges for planning only. They are not quotes and do not reflect your property. Prices vary significantly by province, roof height, access and materials.

Is eavestrough guards the same as gutter guards?

Yes, exactly the same work. "Gutter" and "eavestrough" are regional words for the same thing — eavestrough is common in Ontario and the Prairies, gutter is standard in British Columbia and most of North America.

How do I compare quotes fairly?

Check that each quote specifies the material and gauge, the number of downspouts, whether removal and disposal of the old system is included, and the length of the workmanship warranty. Two quotes with the same headline price can differ substantially on all four.
