How to Sell Gutter Leads
How to sell gutter leads to contractors who expect them exclusive and in their ZIP codes. Sign funded contractors first, separate gutters from other trades, and have overflow ready.
Most of the 19 gutter companies in our directory sell exclusive, real-time leads, and 9 offer inbound calls. Nearly all are multi-trade generators, so gutters are one trade among many.
Contractors here compare every seller with the big shared-lead marketplaces, so exclusivity and clear credit rules are what you sell. Agencies compete with guarantees and branded campaigns.
Line up contractors by ZIP code before you buy traffic, have each fund a balance, write your credit rules, and route anything nobody claims to an overflow outlet.
Who buys gutter leads
Gutter companies in our directory sell to local contractors, multi-trade companies and, in a few cases, to networks that resell.
| Buyer | What they buy | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| Local gutter contractors | Exclusive leads and calls from homeowners in their ZIP codes or radius, split by repair, install, replacement or guards. | Most sellers offer exclusive leads, and a few lock a territory to one contractor. Agree the area and job types, then have the contractor fund a balance. |
| Roofing and exterior contractors | Gutters alongside roofing, siding and windows. | Put each trade on its own lead type so a roofer who also does gutters can bid and cap them separately. |
| Multi-location and national accounts | Leads routed to each location with its own budget. | A few sellers run per-location sub-accounts or national accounts. Set each location up as its own buyer with its own filters and caps. |
| Networks and aggregators | Gutter leads and calls through ping post, priced by category and geography. | One seller runs ping-post bidding for aggregators and one network buys from publishers. Expect rules on traffic, consent records and duplicates, and keep a source sub ID on every lead. |
The gutter lead buyer directory lists every company we found that publicly buys or sells gutter leads, with what each one says it does. It is a research starting point, with no contact details.

What to capture and screen for
- Service type: repair, seamless install, replacement, guards or cleaning.
- Homeowner, and inside the contractor's service area.
- Residential or commercial.
- The reason, such as overflow or storm damage, in the homeowner's words.
- Timeline and whether the person is ready to hire.
- Working phone and email, with duplicates removed.
- A consent certificate and a source sub ID on every lead.

Building it, in order
-
Sign contractors before you build traffic
Get each contractor's ZIP codes or radius, which gutter jobs it takes, and how many leads it wants. A few sellers here check territory availability before signup, so you know where demand is funded before you spend.
-
Get every contractor to fund a balance
Many companies here ask for little commitment and a few keep only a card on file. Ask for a funded balance instead, with no free trial week and no promise of a set number of leads by a date. In Juiced the contractor funds a wallet and is charged as each lead is delivered.
-
Write the credit rules before the first lead
Start from the common ground in published policies here: credit wrong numbers, duplicates, out of area and wrong trade, and do not credit lost jobs, comparison shoppers or homeowners who hired someone else. Decide how you handle unreachable homeowners, because sellers split on it.
-
Set expectations on the first call
Tell the contractor how fast to call, what the credit rules are and that not every homeowner will hire. Contractors who are used to agency guarantees or shared marketplaces will otherwise blame the leads.
-
Give gutters their own lead type
Add service_type, property_type, timeline and project_details. Mark the fields a contractor needs to decide as required for ping and keep contact details for the post.
-
Generate only where a funded contractor is waiting
Point traffic at the ZIP codes your funded contractors cover. A gutter request in an uncovered area is a lead you paid for and may not sell.
-
Let contractors bid
Most sellers here charge a set price per lead, and several run bidding or dynamic pricing. When several contractors want the same ZIP codes, let them bid above your minimum so the highest bid wins in seconds and the lead still goes to one contractor.
-
Have overflow ready
Leads nobody takes go to your own marketplace, where the price falls until someone buys with Buy Now or a standing Buy Order.
-
Track every source
Several sellers here buy from partner sites and affiliates. Keep a source sub ID on every lead so a run of out-of-area or duplicate credits points to one source you can fix or cut.
What makes gutter different
- Gutters are almost always one trade inside a multi-trade seller, not a market of their own.
- Exclusivity is expected: 12 of the 19 companies offer exclusive leads and only one offers shared leads.
- A few sellers lock one contractor per trade per territory.
- Calls matter: 9 of the 19 offer inbound calls and several offer live transfers.
- Agencies are a real share of the market, competing with branded campaigns and guarantees instead of per-lead credit rules.
- Published credit rules agree on most reasons but split on homeowners who never respond.
Common mistakes
- Buying traffic before a contractor has funded a balance in that ZIP code.
- Mixing gutter requests into a roofing or general exterior lead type.
- Calling leads exclusive on the website while the agreement lets you share them.
- Giving a free trial week of leads or promising a lead count by a date before the contractor funds.
- Leaving unreachable homeowners out of the credit rules, then arguing about them lead by lead.
- Selling a territory at a fixed price when several contractors in the same area would bid.
- Dropping the source sub ID, so you cannot tell which partner sends duplicates or out-of-area leads.

Frequently asked
Should I sell gutter leads exclusive or shared?
Exclusive. Twelve of the 19 companies offer exclusive leads and only one offers shared, and contractors here compare sellers against shared-lead marketplaces.
Should gutter leads be sold with roofing?
Sell them to the same contractors if they want both, but on separate lead types. Nearly every seller here is multi-trade, and separate lead types keep filters, caps and bids apart.
What credit reasons do gutter sellers accept?
Published policies here credit wrong or disconnected numbers, duplicates, out of area and wrong trade. Those that list exclusions do not credit lost jobs, comparison shopping or a homeowner who hired someone else.
Do gutter contractors want calls?
Many sellers here offer them: 9 of the 19 companies sell inbound calls. Juiced distributes web leads, so calls need separate call tracking.
Do I need consent records on gutter leads?
How do agencies in this market differ from lead sellers?
Agencies run campaigns for one contractor, often under its brand or in its own ad account, and charge a fee plus a price per lead. Lead sellers generate across many contractors and sell each lead by area and trade.
What do gutter leads sell for?
No prices are published here. Sellers rarely publish them, and what a gutter lead sells for depends on whether it is exclusive or shared, a web lead or a call, the geography, how fresh it is and how many buyers want it. The pay-per-lead pricing guide shows how to work out your own floor from cost and let buyers bid above it.
Does Juiced handle gutter calls or live transfers?
No. Juiced distributes web leads and delivers them by webhook, email or text. It does not track or route phone calls, so if calls are part of your product you need call tracking software for that side.
Selling gutter leads to more than one buyer?
Juiced is lead distribution software for companies that sell leads. Buyers fund a wallet and bid above your minimum, each lead goes to the highest bid in seconds, and leads that miss their first buyer go to your own marketplace instead of being lost.
