Methodology

How we build these ranges

Each calculator blends 2025-2026 pricing from Houzz, HomeAdvisor, Angi, Modernize, and trade-association rate sheets. The low end reflects builder-grade materials in an accessible jobsite in a competitive market; the high end reflects premium materials, difficult access, and high-cost metros. Ranges are planning estimates, not binding bids.
