pricing suggestion for JH 9 1/4" siding, etc. tear-out and re-install - Contractor Talk - Professional Construction and Remodeling Forum

Hello All!

So, I have a repeat remodel customer. Have done many interior rooms and a deck over the years. This time he needs a roof and siding replacement. This is something I would typically sub-out but I will take all the work I can get right now (ain't this economy great?). It's not that I've never done siding. I have installed it many times for my own rentals and fix-n-flips, as well as many years ago as a laborer, just never as a bid-job. Can someone suggest a good price? I already have the job but don't want to over charge the home owner, at the same time don't want to cheat myself or my guys. The house has 5 gables (around 400 sq ft) We are using James Hardie 9 1/4". Will be pulling the existing soffit, trim and siding.
Thanks for you help!

Go Broncos!

If you typically sub this out then why don't you just charge the customer what your subs typically charge you?

There's some pretty good pricing info here: http://www.contractortalk.com/f16/pr...success-27899/

What I meant by "This is something I would typically sub-out" is that siding is not one of my specialties. If it came my way back when things were flowing a little better, I would call someone else in to do it. But as it is, I have never done that...But damn good point!

Sorry for the mis-speak!
And thanks for your time!

Any advice??
