Not sure? A typical Front Range single-story home has 1,200–2,000 sq ft of exterior wall; a two-story runs 2,000–3,500.
Estimated Project Cost
Installed range for 1,800 sq ft of Fiber Cement siding, including tear-off.
- Includes standard trim, flashing, and fasteners
- Assumes 10–15% waste for cuts and pattern matching
- Excludes major sheathing repair, insulation upgrades, or custom accents
Estimates are for planning only. Final siding replacement cost depends on site conditions, trim details, and material selection.
How the Siding Cost Calculator Works
Our siding cost calculator multiplies your exterior wall square footage by the installed price range for your chosen material, then factors in tear-off, waste, and two-story labor. The result is a realistic siding replacement cost range you can use for budgeting before scheduling an on-site measure.
Siding Cost by Material (Installed)
| Material | Per Sq Ft | Lifespan | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vinyl | $4–$8 | 20–30 yrs | Budget-friendly, low maintenance. |
| Engineered Wood | $6–$10 | 25–30 yrs | Warm wood look with better durability. |
| Fiber Cement | $8–$13 | 40–50 yrs | Hail-resistant, ideal for Colorado. |
| Cedar / Wood | $8–$14 | 20–40 yrs | Classic look, requires upkeep. |
| Metal (Steel/Aluminum) | $9–$15 | 40–70 yrs | Extremely durable, modern look. |
What Drives Siding Replacement Cost
- Home size and wall square footage
- Material choice (vinyl vs. fiber cement vs. metal)
- Tear-off and disposal of existing siding
- Number of stories and site accessibility
- Trim, corners, gables, and architectural details
- Sheathing repairs or moisture damage discovered during tear-off
Siding Cost Calculator FAQ
How accurate is a siding cost calculator?
A calculator gives a solid planning range. Final pricing depends on measurements taken on-site and any repairs uncovered during tear-off.
What is the cheapest siding to install?
Vinyl siding is typically the most affordable at $4–$8 per square foot installed.
Is fiber cement worth it in Colorado?
Yes — fiber cement stands up well to hail, UV, and freeze-thaw, which is why many Front Range homeowners choose it for long-term siding replacement.
