Wages behind the New Hampshire 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 1.02 for New Hampshire.
For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 60%) the local median is $29.42 an hour, which is in line with the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $24.12 and $35.46 an hour. BLS counts 3,760 of them working in the state, 55.0 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is deeper than average.
Construction laborers (47-2061), 30% of the weighting: a median of $24.03 an hour, 6% above the US median of $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $21.61 and $28.32 an hour. About 4,330 work in the state. That is 63.4 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 $28.75 an hour, which is 3% below the national $29.71. The middle half of them earn between $22.26 and $34.06 an hour. BLS counts 760 of them working in the state, 11.1 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 7.7), so the local bench is deeper than average.
A crew paid at the 75th percentile for carpenters ($35.46 an hour) would add about $1,050 to the statewide midpoint; one at the 25th percentile ($24.12) would take off about $920. Use that as a rough guide to how far a bid can sit from our midpoint on wages alone.
BLS counts 683,290 jobs across New Hampshire (May 2025), which is 0.4% of US employment.
| Trade | Weight | 25th pct | Median | 75th pct | US median | Ratio | Level used |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carpenters (47-2031) | 60% | $24.12 | $29.42 | $35.46 | $29.12 | 1.01 | state |

New Hampshire seasons and vinyl siding
Season matters for vinyl siding. For each New Hampshire metro below we took NOAA's 1991-2020 monthly normals from the nearest suitable station and counted comfortable months for exterior installation.
Manchester has 9 comfortable months (March through November), with about 40 inches of precipitation a year.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Manchester | 17 | 84 | 40 | 9: March through November |
