Siding replacement can be a difficult process but with the right preparation and research, it can be done without breaking the bank. The most important part of any exterior replacement is the accurate cost estimation of the project. In this article, American Roofing & Construction, LLC enumerates six tips to help you get an accurate siding estimate.
For accurate estimates, you should measure the height and width of the entire area that will need new siding. Make sure to get measurements of all areas, including any eaves or corners where two walls meet. This information will be needed when getting a quote from a local siding contractor. Square footage is the most critical cost driver for new siding projects.
The complexity of the siding project will also affect the final cost. For example, if there are any problematic angles or corners that need to be cut, this will require extra labor and may increase the price of the estimate. Be sure to communicate these details with your siding contractor so they can accurately factor them into their quote.
If there are any walls that need to be finished with siding, this may require extra labor and materials. Make sure to factor this into your budget when getting an estimate for the project.
The quality and quantity of the siding materials that you’ll be using have a big influence on the estimate. Different materials require different installation techniques and may require extra labor or special tools.
The labor cost is an integral part of any exterior replacement project. Make sure to ask your contractor for an estimated cost of their services so you can accurately budget for the project.
In some cases, you may need additional services like gutters or insulation. Make sure to factor these into your budget when getting an estimate for the project. This will ensure that you are prepared for any unexpected costs and that your exterior replacement goes as smoothly as possible.
