Around here that would be a deal. I've seen jobs here like that go for $4-5k for about the same footage on a two story house. Height has a big factor in price too.
I've seen gutter cleaning companies charge $300+ just to clean a pair of gutter runs here. Wow I wish I get that, I just clean mine tree buds sat, dangerous on ladder, 2-3 times a year is all do, I also got channel on carport clean out if ever rains There is an gutter cleaning outfit here by the name of Ned Stevens , their trucks are painted orange with the business name and logo. All they do is clean gutters , no installs or repairs just cleaning.They are based out of New Jersey I believe. I've seen their trucks all over the tri-state area. Good sized company. I know of several people who have paid them $300 for a 2 story house with two 50' straight runs and downspouts. More complicated and taller houses are more. I've heard of mini mansions with multiple rooflines costing $500-$1000 or more for a clean out. When I do ADC work I have gotten $150-$300 to clean gutters as an add-on only when I have already put my ladders up to access the roof. Easy sell , easy for me because I am already on the roof. I've also made $100-$250 to remove old TV antennas as well. Most people will gladly pay for this as they may terrified of heights and don't own a tall ladder. In somewhat of defence of these prices , most houses in my area are at least 2 stories and taller. Very few single story houses here. I also live in a very expensive area and any service industry company charges quite a bit.

I just put up the cheap plastic ones for $7 per 10 foot section (pretty much any hardware store had them in white and dark brown) and attach them with a long deck screw and a small fender washer instead of buying the attachment fittings that go with them as those are overpriced and how they get you on price. They’ve made it through 3 winters even with being full of ice. Even on my metal roofs they don’t get torn off when the 3 feet of snow slides off, they flex and pop back into place. Aluminum gutters are nothing but a racket. I’ll do the 100 feet of install for $300 as long as you pay for my gas to get to your house YOU WILL REGRET! YELLING ON PURPOSE!

I used to be able to get seamless gutters installed for $7/ft. Downspouts were $7 a foot as well. My guy was also willing to drop them on the ground for $2.10 a foot if I wanted to install them myself. He called me this week and added a $1 a foot to each. The price of materials is going up.
