Is $6,500 to install 190' of 6" gutters and 55' of 3x4" downspouts, plus replace 40' of fascia a fair price?
Project Details
I am a new homeowner trying to determine if the quoted price is reasonable. I have basic house maintenance skills but lack the tools and experience for this job and do not wish to do it myself. I am willing to pay a fair price to support a local business, especially during the down season, but I want to ensure I am not being significantly overcharged. I understand that estimates online and even within this discussion vary widely, which is why I am seeking input.
