    The Cost of Siding Replacement: How is it Calculated?

    The Cost of Siding Replacement: How is it Calculated?

    The cost of siding replacement depends on several factors such as home size, siding & trim materials, labor, disposal fees and more. In this blog, we’ll go into detail about how the costs of siding are calculated.

    Care Free Homes uses the HOVER App to capture measurements and create an interactive, virtual model of your home.

    Home Size and Architecture: Your home’s square footage, architectural complexity, and number of floors, windows, and doors help determine how much siding and trim material will be required for your home. Accurate measurements are crucial for estimating the amount of siding material needed. Here at Care Free Homes, we use the Hover App to capture precise measurements and images of your home. 

    Siding and Trim Material Choices: The choice of siding material significantly impacts the overall cost. Common siding materials include vinyl, wood, fiber cement, and composite siding. Each material has its pros and cons, and prices vary accordingly. Research the durability, maintenance requirements, and aesthetic appeal of each option to find the best fit for your home and budget. Thanks to the Hover App – we create an interactive, virtual model of your house which allows you to mix and match siding colors, styles and more. This helps you visualize your home improvement project so you can decide which siding material works best for you.

    Labor: The cost of siding replacement and installation are impacted by the complexity of the job and the chosen siding material. Panelized siding, such as most vinyl siding products, requires less labor then siding that is installed one plank or shingle at a time. Each product has it’s own installation specifications that require professional training and expertise. Be sure to hire qualified siding contractors with all the necessary licenses and industry certifications. 

    Additional Costs: Beyond home size, siding material, and labor, consider other expenses that may contribute to the overall cost. These can include prep work, repairs, permit and disposal fees, damaged sheathing, removing old siding, or addressing issues with the structural integrity of the walls. If you have asbestos siding, a professional asbestos removal company will be required to safely remove and dispose of your siding.
