If you’re tired of chipping paint, sagging gutters, or worn windows, it's time for an exterior remodel. You deserve to feel proud of your home from the moment you arrive. When you're beginning to plan your remodel, it can be difficult to know where to start or how to create your budget for exterior home renovations.
At SmardBuild, we're exterior design-build experts serving Naperville and the Greater Chicago area. We’re happy to offer tools like this blog to help you understand your home's exterior renovation cost. Whether you're interested in an entry door replacement, looking to understand the cost of siding, curious about the cost of replacing exterior trim, or wondering how to add curb appeal to a flat-front house, we're here to help.
The price of new siding depends on the size of your house and the material you choose. Mastic Vinyl Lap siding and James Hardie Lap siding costs will differ based on a few other factors. Here is a quick breakdown of their costs:
Mastic Vinyl Siding
James Hardie Siding
Of course, there’s more to the price of new siding than the upfront cost. For example, vinyl siding will need to be replaced up to two decades before fiber cement siding. Also, consider James Hardie’s minimal maintenance needs and industry-leading 30-year transferable warranty. Fiber cement siding is available in a beautiful array of colors and styles and doesn’t need to be repainted or maintained like traditional wood. James Hardie Siding is also fade-resistant and hail-resistant. Essentially, your upfront investment can save you money down the line.
If you're ready for a full home exterior makeover, consider the costs of some of the most common updates, other than siding replacement, to accurately plan your budget.
Replacing, repairing, and updating multiple features of your home's exterior at once has its benefits. First, you will save money by bundling the services into a single project. Second, by finishing your exterior home remodel in one fell swoop, you will experience less disruption to your everyday life than you would if you spread the projects out over time.
