• Brick veneer cost$12 to $30per sq ftBrick veneer costs $12 to $30 a square foot installed. Among the most expensive claddings to install and the cheapest to own, because it needs essentially nothing for a century.
• Metal siding cost$900 to $2,800per squareMetal siding costs $900 to $2,800 a square installed. It does not burn, it does not rot, and a good coating carries a forty-year warranty. The finish matters more to the price than the metal.
• Siding repair cost$300 to $2,500per projectRepairing siding costs $300 to $2,500, typically $800. Replacing a few vinyl panels is a two-hour job. Opening a wall because the panels were hiding rot is a different project.
• Garage door replacement cost$800 to $4,500eachReplacing a garage door costs $800 to $4,500 installed, typically $1,800 for a double. It is consistently near the top of every return-on-investment survey, which is unusual for something this cheap.
• Window repair cost$150 to $700eachRepairing a window costs $150 to $700 against $450 to $2,500 to replace. The most common reason people replace windows is a foggy pane, and that is usually repairable for a quarter of the price.
• Storm door installation cost$250 to $900eachA storm door costs $250 to $900 installed. One of the cheapest exterior improvements there is, and one of the few where the wrong choice actively damages what it is protecting.
• Bay window installation cost$2,000 to $8,000eachA bay window costs $2,000 to $8,000 installed, typically $4,000. Most of the difference from a flat window is structure rather than glass: a header above, support below, and a small roof over it.
• Exterior trim replacement cost$8 to $25per linear ftExterior trim costs $8 to $25 a linear foot installed. It is the first thing on a house to rot and the last thing anyone budgets for, and it always fails at the end grain nobody looks at.
• Exterior shutters cost$80 to $600eachExterior shutters cost $80 to $600 a pair installed. Almost every shutter sold in America is decorative, and the most common mistake is fitting them at a size that makes it obvious.
• Pressure washing cost$0.15 to $0.75per sq ftPressure washing a house costs $0.15 to $0.75 a square foot, putting a 2,000 square foot house at $300 to $900. The distinction that matters is between pressure washing and soft washing.
