Gutter Protection Business ROI Calculator
Illustrate what your own gutter protection business could look like, using your own job price, teams, working days and costs.
Hypothetical illustration only. Every figure is calculated from the inputs you enter. They are not typical or guaranteed dealer results, and they do not include every possible business expense.
Your one-time setup
Your one-time setup of $20,000–$40,000 covers everything, so there's no heavy inventory, no shopfront and no other startup costs. We'll walk you through the full breakdown on your call.

Pick a figure in the $20,000–$40,000 range to illustrate how quickly it could be earned back. Your exact setup is confirmed on your call.
Your business assumptions
The average gutter protection job is $3,000–$5,000, paid by the homeowner.
A team of two can complete up to 3 jobs a day.
How many days a month your teams could be out installing.
Start with one team of two (you and a helper), or build up to 3 teams as you grow.
Enter what you'd pay installers per job. It starts at $0 because it depends on your local installers; it's subtracted from your profit.
Doing the installs yourself means no installer cost is subtracted. Your own time isn't counted as a cost here.
What you plan to spend on ads each month. It starts at $0 and is subtracted from your monthly profit.
Existing business upside
= 0 one-off jobs
= 0 jobs a month, 0 a year
Enter your own numbers. Your list is counted once; customers you see each month repeat for 12 months. These are possible opportunities only, not guaranteed customers. They're added to your year-one figures, on top of your install schedule, so check your teams could handle the extra work.
How quickly could you earn back your setup?
Jobs to earn back = setup ÷ profit per job, rounded up (shown as “Not paid back” if monthly net is $0 or less). Payback = setup ÷ monthly net. First-year ROI = (yearly net − setup) ÷ setup. None of these include a ramp-up period, seasonality, taxes or financing.
Your illustrative profit per job
What could a month and a year look like?
1 team × 2 jobs a day × 20 days = 40 illustrative jobs a month
Revenue = jobs × average price. At 50% estimated margin (before installers and ads) = revenue × 50%. Yearly net = monthly net × 12, plus any existing-business upside from Section 3, before taxes and before your setup.
