Five inch is the standard, six inch the upgrade for big roofs and heavy tree cover. Below is how the numbers break down, and what moves them.

Cost by part of the system

Eavestrough price per linear foot, installed.

Installed cost means materials and our labour together, including seamless aluminum troughs roll-formed on site, hangers at the right spacing, downspouts and outlets. Two-storey homes, steep pitches and complex rooflines sit at the top of each range. The ranges below reflect typical Ontario pricing reported in 2025 and 2026 industry cost guides.

A full eavestrough replacement on an average Ontario home runs roughly $1,900 to $3,600, with two-storey and complex rooflines higher. Aluminum soffit and fascia replacement typically adds about $2,500 to $4,500 on a bungalow and $3,500 to $7,000 on a two-storey when done at the same time.

What moves the number

What affects your eavestrough price.

Roofline length

Price scales with linear feet of roofline. An average home has roughly 150 to 200 feet; bigger and more cut-up rooflines mean more trough, more corners and more downspouts.

Trough size

Five inch is the standard; six inch carries about half again more water and costs a few dollars more per foot, plus the larger downspouts it needs to drain properly.

Height and storeys

A second or third storey, steep pitches and tricky access add staging and labour, often 15 to 25 percent over a simple single-storey run.

Soffit and fascia

If the fascia has gone soft or the soffit needs replacing, that is its own line. Doing it with the eavestrough means the details line up and you only stage the roofline once.

Downspouts and drainage

Number of downspouts, 3x4 versus 2x3 sizing, extensions and underground tie-ins all move the total. We spec the system as a whole so the water actually leaves.

Gutter guards

Optional, and typically a 15 to 25 percent add. Under heavy pine and maple they earn it; on a light-tree lot, twice-a-year cleaning may serve you better.

Spread the cost

Protect the house now, pay over time.

A failing eavestrough quietly damages the foundation, siding and landscaping, so it is rarely a job worth putting off. We offer flexible financing on eavestrough projects, especially when you bundle them with new siding or a deck while the crew is on site, so you can move forward this season and pay in manageable monthly amounts. We lay out the options with the same honesty as the materials.

Eavestrough cost questions

Quick answers.

How much does eavestrough installation cost in Ontario in 2026?

Seamless aluminum eavestrough in Ontario typically costs about $8 to $18 per linear foot installed in 2026, so a full replacement on an average home with 150 to 200 feet of roofline runs roughly $1,900 to $3,600. Five inch sits at the low end, six inch and two-storey homes at the high end. Larger and complex rooflines run higher; we quote yours free.

Is 6 inch eavestrough more expensive than 5 inch?

Yes, modestly. Five inch seamless aluminum typically runs about $8 to $13 per linear foot installed, while six inch falls around $13 to $17 because it uses more material and needs larger 3x4 inch downspouts to drain. The upgrade earns its keep on big roofs, steep pitches and homes under heavy tree cover, which describes a lot of properties on the escarpment.

How much does soffit and fascia cost in Ontario?

Aluminum soffit and fascia typically runs about $8 to $18 per linear foot installed in Ontario, so a bungalow lands roughly $2,500 to $4,500 and a two-storey $3,500 to $7,000. It is most efficient to do it with the eavestrough, since the roofline is already staged and the fascia, flashing and trough details all line up.

Are gutter guards worth the extra cost?

Under heavy tree cover, usually yes. Guards typically add 15 to 25 percent to an eavestrough install and cut cleaning from several times a year to an occasional rinse. They are not maintenance-free, and in winter ice can still form on top of any guard. If your trees are light, twice-a-year cleaning may serve you better than the upfront cost, and we will tell you honestly which fits.

What makes an eavestrough job cost more?

The biggest drivers are roofline length, the number of storeys and access, the trough size you choose, and how many downspouts and drainage details the house needs. Replacing soft fascia or worn soffit at the same time adds to it, but skipping it is how water gets behind the wall. Good detailing is most of what separates a system that lasts from one that overflows.

Do you offer financing on eavestrough?

Yes. We offer flexible financing so you can spread an eavestrough, soffit and fascia project over manageable monthly payments instead of paying it all up front, which is especially handy when you bundle it with siding. Ask about it when we quote and we will walk you through the options on the financing page.
