Wages behind the Georgia number
Statewide wages come from BLS's state-level estimates, which blend big cities with small towns and rural areas. 3 trades drive the labor line for this job, and the weighted ratio against the national wage level is 0.83 for Georgia.
For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 60%) the local median is $23.72 an hour, which is 19% below the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $20.29 and $28.00 an hour. BLS counts 9,190 of them working in the state, 18.8 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is thinner than average.
Construction laborers (47-2061), 30% of the weighting: a median of $18.74 an hour, 17% below the US median of $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $16.93 and $22.57 an hour. About 27,800 work in the state. That is 56.9 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 70.5 nationally, so expect fewer local crews to bid.
For sheet metal workers (47-2211, weighted 10%) the local median is $27.31 an hour, which is 8% below the national $29.71. The middle half of them earn between $22.23 and $33.96 an hour. BLS counts 3,590 of them working in the state, 7.3 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 7.7), so the local bench is about average.
A crew paid at the 75th percentile for carpenters ($28.00 an hour) would add about $740 to the statewide midpoint; one at the 25th percentile ($20.29) would take off about $590. Use that as a rough guide to how far a bid can sit from our midpoint on wages alone.
BLS counts 4,889,170 jobs across Georgia (May 2025), which is 3.1% of US employment.
| Trade | Weight | 25th pct | Median | 75th pct | US median | Ratio | Level used |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carpenters (47-2031) | 60% | $20.29 | $23.72 | $28.00 | $29.12 | 0.81 | state |

Vinyl siding: what moves the price in Georgia
Style
Clapboard vinyl siding runs $4-$7 per sq ft installed; board-and-batten is $5-$9 (HomeGuide).
Old siding removal
Taking the old siding off costs $0.70-$2.00 per sq ft. Check that disposal is included.
Labor and season
Siding labor is $40-$80 an hour or $2-$6 per sq ft, and it is highest in warm months.
Wall area is not floor area
A 2,000 sq ft house usually has more wall area than floor area once you count gables and two stories. Measure the wall, not the floor.
Georgia seasons and vinyl siding
Season matters for vinyl siding. For each Georgia metro below we took NOAA's 1991-2020 monthly normals from the nearest suitable station and counted comfortable months for exterior installation.
Gainesville has the longest comfortable season of the metros we cover in Georgia at 12 months; Albany has the shortest at 9 (September through May). Rainfall runs from 45 inches a year in Augusta to 55 inches in Dalton.
We do not adjust prices by month, because we have no reliable published data on seasonal pricing. Timing is still worth raising when you collect bids.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Atlanta | 34 | 90 | 48 | 11: August through June |

Vinyl siding cost by metro in Georgia
2 of the 10 metros sit above the statewide midpoint of $15,300, and the top-to-bottom gap is 14%. Each row prices the default size with that metro's own BLS wages and BEA price levels, so the gap between rows is real local variation rather than a flat markup.
