What’s different about Paterson
Paterson shares the northern New Jersey labor market, with dense older housing and high regional costs shaping exterior project pricing.
- Permit fees and skilled-trade labor rates here run well above the national average — usually the single biggest cost driver.
- Salt air calls for corrosion-resistant gutters and stainless fasteners.
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.
