Have you used an online vinyl siding calculator or the national average to determine your home’s new replacement siding cost? These figures can be misleading because multiple factors are not included and play a role in the final estimate. Do you need soffits, gutters, and fascia? What about shutters, gables, unique trim, or additional insulation? What is your climate? What does your community’s code require and what does that requirement cost? Do you have a deck or balcony attached to the home? These and other factors are critical to know to determine your new siding cost and make sure it fits into your budget.
1. Siding Material Selection
The type of siding material plays a significant role in determining the overall cost. Consider your preferences, city codes, climate, and maintenance capabilities when selecting the type of siding, trim, and other exterior finishes.
Common siding materials include:
2. Siding Style & Design
Different siding styles and designs, including shakers, vertical and horizontal patterns, trim, shutters, and multiple colors can impact costs. Intricate designs or unique patterns may require more labor and materials, influencing the overall price.
3. The Size & Layout of Your Home
The size and layout of your home directly affect the amount of siding needed. Larger homes with multiple stories will naturally require more materials and labor, leading to higher costs.
4. Siding Installation & Demolition Complexity
Factors such as the condition of the existing siding, whether it needs to be removed or can be sided over; the need for additional insulation, and the complexity of the installation process will all contribute to the overall new siding cost. Professional demolition and installation ensure budget accuracy, siding longevity, and proper functionality.
5. Your Home’s Location & Climate
The region of the country where you reside, your city or town’s real estate market, and your community’s code requirements will affect costs. For example, home repairs and siding costs in Missouri tend to be less than in California or New York, but, if you’re in an affluent community, that price might be higher than the Missouri average.
Additionally, if you reside in a cold climate or a tropical locale, some siding materials and trim will withstand the extreme cold and heat better than others. New siding costs in your location will be very specific. Your best chance to gain a realistic estimate and budget is to work with a local siding contractor to begin the estimation process.
Work with Jones Home Improvements, a local siding company with a 28-year, proven track record that is well-known in the market. We prioritize caring for home renovation customers like you and always guarantee our workmanship and products.
There are at least three new siding benefits to weigh when factoring your home’s new siding cost.
1. Maintenance
Depending on your current siding, the long-term maintenance costs associated with your newly chosen siding material could be improved. Some materials require more frequent and complex cleaning, painting, staining, sealing, or repairs. Selecting low-maintenance, high-quality siding that fits into your climate and works with the style of your home can offer the benefit of long-term savings.
2. Curb Appeal & Return on Investment (ROI)
New siding is the best way to improve curb appeal and enjoy the new look of your home for years to come. Nothing refreshes a home quite like new, clean, attractive vinyl siding with complementary trim and other finishes (think gables, soffits, fascia, outdoor lighting, porch railings, new gutters). Home buyers agree! In a recent poll, Realtors estimate that buyers are willing to pay 7% more when a home has new siding. When you select a top-quality, long-lasting replacement product and the best vinyl siding contractor who guarantees the installation is done right, you can realize up to 95% ROI.
3. Energy Efficiency
Investing in energy-efficient siding and additional insulation where needed can provide years of savings on heating and cooling costs. Insulated vinyl siding, for example, is cost-effective, thermally resistant, and energy-efficient.
