in Is this quote fair?
A single 5-metre run of guttering and one downpipe to be replaced (old is iron, new plastic) at the front of a two-storey house in Southampton ...

how much labour should I be paying for that?
(the materials are about 50 quid in Wickes)

    It's a 2 man job so allow £250
    Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.

    I was recently quoted £250 to have my existing front gutter emptied of moss, realigned, & new metal brackets. Id say its 10 metres of gutter. North Dorset area.

    I had 4m of guttering and 3m of downpipe fitted for £60 though I did have scaffolding up at the time.
