Why Greeley prices look the way they do

The wage side of the estimate leans on carpenters, who do 60% of the hours on a typical job. Their local median is $27.83 an hour. Add the other trades involved and the blended wage index for Greeley is 0.95 (US = 1.00), which puts labor at 50% of the total.

On the materials line, the BEA goods price index for the Greeley metro is 96.1 (US = 100). The midpoint materials bill for 2,100 sq ft of wall comes to $8,050, compared with $8,400 at national prices. Permit and inspection fees are scaled by the broader index (100.2) and land at $0 to $0.

Local wages behind the labor line

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 Greeley is 0.95 times the national level.

For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 60%) the local median is $27.83 an hour, which is 4% below the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $24.38 and $30.06 an hour. BLS counts 560 of them working in the area, 46.8 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is about average.

Construction laborers (47-2061), 30% of the weighting: a median of $22.19 an hour, in line with the US median of $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $19.97 and $26.19 an hour. About 1,430 work in the metro. That is 119.6 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 70.5 nationally, which suggests plenty of local crews to bid.

For sheet metal workers (47-2211, weighted 10%) the local median is $24.05 an hour, which is 19% below the national $29.71. The middle half of them earn between $22.68 and $29.28 an hour. BLS counts 120 of them working in the area, 10.0 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 7.7), so the local bench is deeper than average.

Quotes come from real crews, not medians. If the carpenters on your job are paid at the 75th percentile ($30.06 an hour) instead of the median, the labor line grows by about $390. At the 25th percentile ($24.38) it shrinks by about $600. The total moves by 2.4% or 3.7%, so wages alone rarely explain a quote that is far outside our range.

For context on the local economy, BLS counts 119,540 jobs in the Greeley area. That makes it the 184th largest of the 300 metros we cover, with 0.08% of US employment.

When to schedule vinyl siding in Greeley

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

February through June and August through November are the stretches where exterior installation runs into the fewest weather problems in Greeley (9 of 12 months). January and December have an average daytime high under 45°F; July has an average daytime high of 90°F or more.

In January and December the average high stays below 45°F. Sealants, adhesives and some materials, such as vinyl, are harder to install well in the cold, and short daylight cuts the working day.

Greeley gets about 15 inches of precipitation in a normal year, including roughly 35 inches of snow. The wettest months are April, May and June (2.6 inches in May). Inside the workable window, February and November are the driest, at 0.5 and 0.7 inches. The station averages about 58 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.
