Every project raises the same four questions, in the same order: what’s this going to cost, do you actually need a full replacement, how do you keep the price honest, and how do you pay for it. This page follows that order — jump to whichever stage you’re at, or start with the real numbers for your project below.

Six projects, six real cost ranges — pulled from Zonda’s 2025 Cost vs. Value Report, not a lead-gen guess.
| Project | Typical Cost | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Bathroom Remodel | $8,000–$20,000 | Outdated single-bath homes |
| Window Replacement | $300–$1,800/win | Homes 20+ yrs old, drafty frames |
| Roof Replacement | $9,000–$18,000 | Roofs nearing 15–20 years old |
| Flooring Installation | $3–$14/sq ft | Refinishing existing hardwood |
| Gutter Installation | $1,200–$4,500 | Preventing foundation/water damage |
| Siding Replacement | $8,000–$20,000 | Maximizing curb appeal & resale |
| Door Replacement | $1,200–$6,000 | Upgrading security & curb appeal |
*Flooring and gutters aren’t part of the Zonda Cost vs. Value Report. Flooring’s number reflects a National Wood Flooring Association finding that homes with wood floors tend to sell faster and for more; gutters’ value comes from preventing water and foundation damage, not a resale percentage.

02The same project can run $500 or $20,000 depending on one thing: whether you actually need a full replacement. Here’s the line for each project.
Shown: the point at which each project stops being a repair and becomes a full replacement. Each cost guide has the full 3-tier breakdown, from minor fix to full replacement.
The same 3 steps apply no matter which project you’re pricing out — skipping any one of them is how identical jobs end up priced 20–40% apart.
