Fiber Cement Siding Cost Guide - Pricing Assumptions and Notes

Homewyse Cost Guides estimate approximate cost ranges for basic work in typical conditions. The estimates should only be used for preliminary planning. Homewyse estimates are NOT substitutes for quotes from qualified vendors. Homewyse strongly recommends that you contact reputable professionals for an accurate assessment of work required and costs for your project - before making any decisions or commitments.

  • Labor tasks - Layout, fabricate and attach plank fiber cement siding (6" width) over vapor barrier. Blind nail to wall framing through drilled pilot holes. Caulk all seams at installation perimeter / edges.
  • * Common home footprints have 6 - 12 corners; complex home footprints have 12+ corners. Include window and door openings in exterior surface area.
  • Fiber Cement Siding cost estimates may require an onsite inspection. Usually these estimates will be "free". You should expect any estimate to be presented with an in-depth sales pitch/presentation.
  • Low to High labor cost range differences are in part due to variations in work load, job location and seasonal wage rates.
  • The variation in installation costs for complex configurations (non-rectangular shape, many corners, multiple levels, etc.) can be considerable. For accurate cost estimates, collect detailed bids from several qualified professionals.
  • The homewyse Fiber Cement Siding cost estimates do not include costs for removal and disposal of existing siding and trim, structural modifications or repairs, and any work on soffit or fascia.
  • The homewyse cost estimates include all typical costs for manufacturer recommended underlayment, flashing for all wall openings, siding, starter strip, window trim fittings, door trim fittings, and manufacturer recommended adhesives, caulking and fasteners.
  • Higher priced Fiber Cement Siding typically offer more durable material, extended warranties and enhanced appearance and finish options
  • Fiber Cement Siding installation costs vary considerably by location. For an accurate estimate in your area, enter your zip code in the calculator above.
  • Reduce total project cost by having multiple vendors bid on the same, detailed work specification of your Fiber Cement Siding project.
  • Save on installation costs by combining similar jobs and by being willing to have your project completed during low demand periods for the vendor/installer.
