Is Measured Bid cheaper than InstantGutterQuotes?
No. At InstantGutterQuotes' founder prices it costs less at every volume. Measured Bid Starter is $99 a month with 150 estimates. InstantGutterQuotes Founder Basic is $79.99 a month with unlimited quotes, as of September 2026.
Can I try both?
Measured Bid has a 14-day free trial with 25 estimates and no card. InstantGutterQuotes is in early access; you request access on its site.
Does Measured Bid price gutter guards on existing gutters?
Yes. The homeowner picks guards only, new gutters with guards, or new gutters. Add cleaning prices and gutter cleaning is a fourth choice. Guards-only and cleaning jobs each have their own minimum.
What happens when there's no roof data for an address?
The widget shows a visit request form instead of a price, so the homeowner still becomes a lead. Those addresses don't count as estimates.
How do I switch my website from another gutter widget?
Set your gutter rates in Measured Bid, add your website to the widget's allowed sites, then replace the old embed code or install the WordPress plugin.
