What is behind the Lexington Park number

Labor is 50% of the midpoint bill here, against 48% nationally. The mix of trades behind this job is carpenters (60%), glaziers (30%), general maintenance and repair workers (10%). We weight each trade's local median wage by that share and compare it with the national median. In Lexington Park the blended ratio comes out at 1.04.

On the materials line, the BEA goods price index for the Lexington Park metro is 99.7 (US = 100). The midpoint materials bill for 1 door comes to $1,700, compared with $1,700 at national prices. Permit and inspection fees are scaled by the broader index (100.8) and land at $0 to $0.

Data note: 30% of the labor weighting for this project uses a statewide median because BLS has no published metro figure for that trade in Lexington Park. The wage table below marks each row.

Lexington Park labor market for patio door

Wages are the part of this estimate that changes most from town to town. 3 trades carry the job here, and each is compared with its US median. The weighted result for Lexington Park is 1.04 times the national level.

For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 60%) the local median is $30.23 an hour, which is 4% above the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $26.36 and $35.38 an hour. BLS counts 210 of them working in the area, 29.7 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is thinner than average.

Glaziers (47-2121) carry 30% of the labor weighting. BLS does not publish this trade for the Lexington Park metro, so we used the Maryland statewide median: $28.79 an hour against $27.44 for the US. The middle half of them earn between $23.50 and $35.04 an hour.

General maintenance and repair workers (49-9071), 10% of the weighting: a median of $25.05 an hour, 5% above the US median of $23.84. The middle half of them earn between $20.30 and $28.68 an hour. About 430 work in the metro. That is 60.9 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 98.4 nationally, so expect fewer local crews to bid.

Quotes come from real crews, not medians. If the carpenters on your job are paid at the 75th percentile ($35.38 an hour) instead of the median, the labor line grows by about $170. At the 25th percentile ($26.36) it shrinks by about $130. The total moves by 5.0% or 3.8%, so wages alone rarely explain a quote that is far outside our range.

For context on the local economy, BLS counts 70,650 jobs in the Lexington Park area. That makes it the 259th largest of the 300 metros we cover, with 0.05% of US employment.

Why two Lexington Park quotes can differ

  • New opening versus replacement

    Cutting a new opening in a wall adds framing, header and finish work compared with a like-for-like swap.

  • Old door removal

    Removing and disposing of the old door is $100-$500 extra.

  • Glass

    Low-E, tempered and hurricane-rated glass cost more than basic single-pane glass.

Climate in Lexington Park: timing your patio door job

We use NOAA's 1991-2020 climate normals for Patuxent River Nas (5 miles from the city center). These are 30-year monthly averages, not forecasts.

Weather is not a serious constraint for exterior installation in Lexington Park: no month in the averages is cold enough (an average daytime high under 45°F) or hot enough (an average daytime high of 90°F or more) to rule it out, so the workable window is all year.

Lexington Park gets about 45 inches of precipitation in a normal year, including roughly 13 inches of snow. The wettest months are June, July and August (4.7 inches in August). The station averages about 26 days a year at 90°F or above.

Does the season change the price? Probably, but we do not have a sourced seasonal price curve, so the estimator shows a year-round figure and does not adjust by month. When you collect quotes, ask whether scheduling in a slower month gets a better rate.

Where these numbers come from

Base prices are national ranges from the sources below. We scale labor by local BLS wages, materials by BEA goods prices and permits by the BEA all-items price level. Full method on the methodology page.

Note on derived figures: Materials = HomeGuide's $400-$3,000 for the sliding door itself, matched to the lower part of the $600-$6,000 installed range; labor is the remainder and sits above HomeGuide's $200-$1,000 labor-only figure because the installed range also covers trim, flashing and haul-away.
