Roughly 44% of the installed price is labor. Trim and accessories are usually inside these ranges — but confirm they're itemized in any quote, a common place prices get padded.
Compare this to a quote you have →A 2026 planning estimate, not a quote. Actual price depends on your home, trim, access, repairs, and local labor. Always get written quotes.
How to read the estimate
The range is deliberately wide because two honest quotes for the same house can differ a lot. The low end is a builder-grade product with a simple install; the high end is a premium line, complex walls, or a high-cost metro. Where your real quotes land inside — or outside — that range is the useful signal.
What this calculator doesn't include
It doesn't know about hidden repairs (rotted sheathing behind old siding is common), custom trim, permits, or your exact local labor market. Treat it as a planning range, get two or three written quotes, and check them against typical ranges.
