How this estimator works
- Low end assumes a straightforward job: accessible site, standard materials, competitive local labor market, no surprises.
- Typical is roughly what most US homeowners report paying for a mid-spec, mid-market version of the job.
- High end covers premium materials, difficult access, code upgrades, permit-heavy jurisdictions, and busy-season labor.
- Every range is national and approximate. A quote 20% outside the range isn’t automatically wrong — it’s a reason to ask the contractor to walk you through their line items.
Heads up: these figures are compiled from commonly published national averages and homeowner reports. They are not scraped from any single study, and no single number here should be cited as “the” price of anything. Ranges are refreshed annually — see the date above.
