Big saving and cost per foot was only5.33 per ft verses $40.per ft
I agree. $40 per foot is an outrageous price for a piece of metal to cover a gutter. I understand that some installers will start at an even higher price, and then negotiate down from there. It's similar to the awning installers who will charge $1200 in labor to attach an awning to the house. A job that takes about 30 minutes. Buyer beware.
