How Much Do Contractors Charge to Install Vinyl Siding?

Contractors often charge around $4 to $12 per square foot installed for vinyl siding, including materials and labour, depending on the siding grade, home size, removal of old siding, trim work and region. Labour alone is often $2 to $5 per square foot. Siding pros often price by the square (100 square feet).

These are rough ranges; get local quotes for accurate prices.

What's included

• Removal and disposal of old siding (sometimes extra)
• House wrap or underlayment
• Vinyl siding panels
• Trim, corners, J-channel, soffit and fascia (sometimes extra)
• Labour and cleanup

What affects the price

Example

A 2,000 sq ft wall area at $6–$9 per sq ft is roughly $12,000 to $18,000, before extras like soffit, fascia or sheathing repairs.

How siding contractors build quotes

1. Measure wall area in squares, subtract windows and doors
2. Add waste (often 10%)
3. Price materials and accessories
4. Add labour per square
5. Add removal, dump fees and repairs
6. Add overhead and profit
