Calculate installation prices for Vinyl, Fiber Cement, Cedar Clapboard & Shingles, & Aluminum Siding. Free Siding Calculator tool helps homeowners estimate residential siding prices. To calculate siding installation price, simply plug-in your home foundation measurements, number of floors in you home and number of windows and doors that will need to get trimmed with flat-stock aluminum coil.

Siding Calculator v. 1.1 features: Progressive siding pricing algorithm accounts for smaller residential siding projects (under 700 sq. ft.) prices are adjusted to account for smaller size job. Now you can also estimate cost of installing aluminum copping (aluminum trim) around windows, doors, bay windows, etc. It is also possible to calculate soffit and fascia installation cost for vented vinyl soffits and aluminum fascia trimming.

* Siding prices are estimated, and will vary based on your geographic location, local market conditions and and other factors, such as fluctuating costs of roofing materials. Although vinyl siding prices are not directly related to oil prices, they seem to go up when oil is up, and usually do not drop back down. In case of cedar siding the clear-coat staining or painting is not included in price calculation.

** Siding prices are calculated based on the assumption that you are working with a reputable, fully licensed and insured siding contractor. Although the General Liability Insurance for siding installation is rather inexpensive, the Workers Comp insurance is what the contractors usually skip on.

It is important that the information that you plug into the siding calculator is more or less accurate this way you will get the best estimate of siding installation costs for your particular home.

House Dimensions:

Take the ground measurements of your house, from corner to corner. Our calculator assumes that your house has rectangular shape. It cannot operate with odd shaped objects, so when you are plugging in the ground dimensions of your home, that is not rectangular, calculate the outer perimeter of your house and plug it in, multiplied by one.

For example, you have an L shaped house that measures 50 x 25 feet for the main section of the house and 20 x 15 feet for the bump-out section. Calculate your outside wall dimensions in our case it will be: 50 (back side), 25 + 25 (sides of the main section), 30 (front of the main section), and 15 + 15 + 20 (sides and front of the bump-out section). Your total outside perimeter (length of the outside walls) is 180 linear feet. Plug in 180 x 1 into the calculator.

PS. You can use the length of the outside walls to also get the pricing on soffit and fascia installation.

BROOKSVILLE Most people would agree that the 163-year-old Chinsegut Hill manor house is among the most photographed edifices in Hernando County, with the earliest known images dating to the early 1900s.

But thanks to advanced 3-D technology and the endeavors of a team of spatial engineers from the University of South Florida, the storied structure now has a new photographic record that will provide valuable information to future generations of historians.

The recently completed project by the university's Alliance for Integrated Spatial Technologies involved setting up sophisticated terrestrial laser scanning cameras throughout the manor house to capture images that were later strung together to create a rolling three-dimensional "flyover" video image. The project took place in the spring during the early phase of an extensive $1.5 million restoration that is set to be completed by early September.

Friends of Chinsegut Hill director Christie Anderberg said the team spent several weeks at the site and was allowed access to areas of the structure that had been dismantled to replace rotting wood. The completed photos offered a rare glimpse of the dwelling, the construction of which began in 1851.

As a knowledgeable expert on the manor house, Anderberg has seen nearly every existing early photo of the home. The new three-dimensional photos capture a character of the structure she hadn't thought much about until now.

"It must have been a very comfortable place to live," she said. "It's very sturdy and well built. You can't imagine it ever falling down. No matter what."

One of Hernando County's oldest homesteads, Chinsegut Hill dates to 1847, when Col. Byrd Pearson laid claim to the land and surrounding acres to build a home and cultivate sugar cane. Four years later, he sold the house and property to Francis Ederington, who began construction on most of the original house that stands today. Additions and alterations were made in the 1850s and 1860s by subsequent owners, but the most substantial and historically significant period of the house is associated with its early to middle 20th century owners, Raymond and Margaret Robins.

Work on restoring the home to the period of the Robins family began in December with the replacement of the foundation. Since then, the work has progressed to upper areas of the house that had suffered from decades of neglect when the manor house served as a conference and education center for USF. Two weeks ago, crews completed installation of new wood siding and window frames. Installation of a new roof will begin in two weeks, Anderberg said.

While restoration of the edifice is the primary goal behind the $1.5 million grant awarded last year by the Florida Legislature, it included about $200,000 for archaeological research of the property and its surroundings as well. Anderberg said that the effort led to the discovery of what is believed to be the foundation footings of Pearson's original log cabin, built in 1842.

Anderberg believes that the archaeological dig around the property could also help fill in some gaps in the facility's history as a plantation that once produced sugar cane using slave labor.
