Siding · Scope

One question to ask about a siding replacement estimate

Pick one line of the bid. A follow-up that rewrites the whole scope does not get answered.

Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.

The line that gets replies

Do you want the back wall included so the color matches, or left as-is? Put $18,600 in the email so they know which siding replacement you mean.

Included and left out

Included: house wrap, new lap siding on the street face and both sides, and caulk at the windows. Left out: the back wall, which is still sound and was priced only if you want it matched. The number follows how many walls are wrapped and resided, not a per-window add-on. Do not tell them the color can be changed after the order is placed.
