Installing a gutter costs an average of 38 euros per meter
Mounting a gutter costs between 22 and 54 euros per meter.
A gutter is essential on every roof in Germany. It collects rainwater and meltwater and channels it through a downpipe either into the ground or into a rainwater collection tank.
This relieves the roof and protects both residents and passersby from water cascades. In addition, you can collect rainwater for garden irrigation.
The following factors can influence the price:
-
Size of the roof
-
Type of gutter
-
Material of the gutter
-
Additional costs
