About a year ago I solicited an estimate from Leafguard. I too own a two story home, roughly 2600 sq ft. with about the same amount of gutter as you. Anyway, when this guy presented his estimate, I almost asked him to leave my property. The bid was for $5200 which put the price at about $25 a foot!

Subsequently, I found a contracter who cleaned all the gutters and installed plastic screens that simply are inserted under the last row of roofing and snap over the gutter. Total cost was $330. They work great keeping out all of the fir needles and I just have the gutters cleaned once a year. Coincidentally, I just had them cleaned two days ago. Cost was $95.

Good luck making your decision. There are a myriad of products that all purport to be the best.
