Maryland seasons and vinyl siding
Season matters for vinyl siding. For each Maryland metro below we took NOAA's 1991-2020 monthly normals from the nearest suitable station and counted comfortable months for exterior installation.
Lexington Park has the longest comfortable season of the metros we cover in Maryland at 12 months; Hagerstown has the shortest at 9 (March through November). Rainfall runs from 44 inches a year in Hagerstown to 45 inches in Lexington Park.
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.
| Metro | Jan avg low °F | Jul avg high °F | Precip (in/yr) | Comfortable months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Baltimore | 30 | 90 | 44 | 10: February through June and August through December |
| Hagerstown | 22 | 86 | 44 | 9: March through November |
| Lexington Park | 30 | 87 | 45 | 12: all year |

Maryland labor market for vinyl siding
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 1.02 for Maryland.
For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 60%) the local median is $30.27 an hour, which is 4% above the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $25.11 and $36.93 an hour. BLS counts 9,770 of them working in the state, 35.4 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 $22.58 an hour, in line with the US median of $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $18.98 and $26.70 an hour. About 20,920 work in the state. That is 75.7 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 70.5 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.
For sheet metal workers (47-2211, weighted 10%) the local median is $30.08 an hour, which is in line with the national $29.71. The middle half of them earn between $24.57 and $36.21 an hour. BLS counts 1,940 of them working in the state, 7.0 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 7.7), so the local bench is about average.
A crew paid at the 75th percentile for carpenters ($36.93 an hour) would add about $1,150 to the statewide midpoint; one at the 25th percentile ($25.11) would take off about $890. Use that as a rough guide to how far a bid can sit from our midpoint on wages alone.
BLS counts 2,763,030 jobs across Maryland (May 2025), which is 1.8% of US employment.
