What’s different about South Carolina
South Carolina's coast faces hurricane wind codes, and humid, subtropical conditions statewide increase exterior wear and moisture management costs.

- Humidity favors moisture- and mildew-resistant materials.
Expect quotes toward the higher end in South Carolina’s larger metros — Charleston, Columbia, and Greenville — where labor and permit costs run above the state average, and lower in rural areas.
How the cost is built
Gutter cost is driven mostly by total linear footage, material (aluminum is the budget standard; copper and steel cost several times more), the number of corners and downspouts, and whether old gutters have to be torn off. Two-story homes cost more because of the added labor and safety equipment.
