In purchasing a new seamless gutter machine you have probably invested somewhere in the range of $6,000 to $15,000, depending on the type selected. If you have listened to what the dealers have probably told you, you understand that the machine in capable of lasting for at least 20 years, and maybe for 30 years or more, in active use.
