Make an informed siding decision

Siding Cost Guide helps US homeowners understand siding materials, plan replacement projects and compare contractor estimates. Our guides explain the factors behind a project price, from the size of the exterior and choice of material to removal, repairs, trim and installation.

How to use our cost guides

Published cost ranges are planning estimates, not offers or guaranteed prices. Your location, home design, access and the condition of the walls can change the final cost. Compare written estimates that cover the same scope of work, and ask contractors to identify exclusions and allowances.

Our approach

We aim to explain what each estimate includes, distinguish material costs from installed costs and link to sources used in our guides. Manufacturer instructions and local requirements should guide the details of any installation.
