Climate in Greenville: timing your storm door job

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

August through June is the stretch where exterior installation runs into the fewest weather problems in Greenville (11 of 12 months). July has an average daytime high of 90°F or more.

Greenville gets about 53 inches of precipitation in a normal year, including roughly 3 inches of snow. The wettest months are July, August and September (7.3 inches in September). Inside the workable window, February and November are the driest, at 3.4 and 3.4 inches. The station averages about 53 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.

Specs and site conditions that change a Greenville bid

  • Permit

    No permit fee is included in this estimate; storm doors rarely need one.

  • Door style

    A mid-view door is $350-$700 installed, a full-view door $425-$950, and a low-E full-view door $475-$1,000 (HomeGuide).

  • Replacing versus new

    Replacing an old storm door runs $400-$1,050 because the old door has to come off.

Greenville labor market for storm door

Wages are the part of this estimate that changes most from town to town. 2 trades carry the job here, and each is compared with its US median. The weighted result for Greenville is 0.80 times the national level.

For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 80%) the local median is $22.47 an hour, which is 23% below the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $18.46 and $27.01 an hour. BLS counts 180 of them working in the area, 22.3 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is thinner than average.

General maintenance and repair workers (49-9071), 20% of the weighting: a median of $21.82 an hour, 8% below the US median of $23.84. The middle half of them earn between $18.16 and $28.71 an hour. About 540 work in the metro. That is 66.9 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 ($27.01 an hour) instead of the median, the labor line grows by about $35. At the 25th percentile ($18.46) it shrinks by about $30. The total moves by 5.6% or 4.9%, so wages alone rarely explain a quote that is far outside our range.

For context on the local economy, BLS counts 80,770 jobs in the Greenville area. That makes it the 236th largest of the 300 metros we cover, with 0.05% of US employment.
