Gutter prices look wildly inconsistent until you check what each one includes. Line them up that way and they make sense.

Quad Colorbond gutter runs $35 to $55 per metre installed in Victoria, on The Quote Yard's 2026 figures. An
Adelaide installer quotes $75 to $105 per metre all-in, which covers downpipes, removal of the old gutters
and fascia work. Whole homes land at $1,500 to $4,000 in Victoria and $3,000 to $4,500 for a
single-storey Adelaide house.
A gutter quote can cover any of these parts. When one price looks far lower than another, it is usually because
the downpipes, the fascia work or removal of the old gutters sit outside it.
Why do per-metre gutter prices vary so much?
Because "per metre" is measuring different work each time. The Adelaide all-in rate carries four jobs; the
Victorian rate is the gutter itself. Neither is wrong, and neither is comparable until you split them.

How are downpipes priced?
Two ways, and the difference bites. Pro Roof and Gutter charges Adelaide downpipes by length at
$30 to $50 per metre. The Quote Yard prices Victorian downpipes at $80 to $150 each, each,
covering supply, the new pipe and brackets, and the connection at ground level. Before you compare, count the
downpipes on the house and note how far each one drops.

Height is the next multiplier. The same Adelaide guide puts a two-storey home at $5,000 to $6,000+, an
open-ended figure we have left off the chart because it has no published top. If your house is two storeys, expect
access and safety gear to be part of the conversation.
What does gutter guard add?
Pro Roof and Gutter prices gutter guard at $20 to $45 per metre in Adelaide. Ask for it as its own line. If
the budget gets tight you can drop it without re-quoting the whole job, and if you keep it you know exactly what it
cost.
Should gutters be done at the same time as the roof?
If a re-roof is likely within a few years, ask the roofer to price gutters as an option in the same visit. Both
jobs need the same access to the eaves, so quoting them together tells you what you save by combining them. Our
replacement cost guide covers the roof side.
All the figures here come from named installers and quote services, not from government pages. They are current
2026 published prices for three cities, so treat them as a benchmark for questions rather than a national average.
