How Much Does Metal Siding Cost?
Metal Siding Gauge
Whenever you are buying metal, the gauge is always a factor that you need to consider. The thicker the gauge, the more expensive it will be. Metal siding comes in different gauges mostly ranging from 22-29 gauge.
Most metal siding for homes will be 26 gauge or 24 gauge. Anything lighter than 26 gauge is not a recommended use of your money. If you go this route, you’ll be left with an inferior product that’s not meant to be long-lasting. The main reason you’d go with a gauge lighter (like 29 gauge) is to save money, but really you’re not saving much when compared to 26-gauge.
A 26-gauge metal panel costs about 10 to 15 percent more than a 29-gauge panel.
Material that’s heavier than 24 gauge is normally not necessary for home applications. There’s rarely an instance in which steel heavier than 24 gauge would be worth the additional costs.
For reference, 24 gauge metal siding costs 30% to 40% more than 26 gauge material.
How Much Does Galvalume Or Galvanized Metal Siding Cost?
This type of metal siding is not painted. It’s a steel siding that simply has a galvanized or Galvalume® finish to protect against corrosion. It will be bright and shiny and is primarily used for commercial or agricultural applications.
26 Gauge/Galvalume®: $1.50-$2.00 per square foot.
24 Gauge/Galvalume®: $2.50-$3.00 per square foot.
How Much Does Painted Metal Siding Cost?
This is the most common type of metal siding that’s used for a residential home. It’s typically a steel siding that has a Galvalume® finish to protect against corrosion and then a paint finish is applied on top of the Galvalume® finish. This gives you two layers of protection against the elements.
26 Gauge/SMP Paint Finish: $2.00- $2.50 per square foot.
24 Gauge/PVDF Paint Finish In Standard Colors: $2.50-$3.00 per square foot.
24 Gauge/PVDF Paint Finish In Specialty Colors: $3.75-$4.25 per square foot.
Aluminum/PVDF Paint Finish: $3.50-$6.50 per square foot.
What Is The Installation Cost Of Metal Siding?
The national average cost to install metal siding is between $3 to $7 per square foot. Exposed fastener panels, such as corrugated metal, will cost less to install when compared to a concealed fastener panel.
Concealed fastener panels such as flush wall panels and wave panels will cost 50% or more to install than a typical corrugated metal roofing panel.
The installation price will increase further if your old siding needs to be removed prior to the new siding being installed since it requires more hours of labor.
