Know What Your Siding Project Will Cost
Siding replacement pricing varies more than roofing because there are more material options and home configurations to account for. Some contractors quote vinyl prices then upsell you once they have your attention. Others quote fiber cement prices for vinyl quality.
The numbers on this page come from actual siding projects we have completed in Omaha. We install both vinyl and James Hardie fiber cement, and we will tell you honestly which material makes sense for your situation and budget.
Siding replacement in Omaha runs $4–$7 per square foot for standard vinyl and $8–$14 per square foot for James Hardie fiber cement, fully installed. For a typical Omaha home with 1,400–1,800 square feet of wall surface, total cost ranges from $5,600 to $25,200 depending on material choice and home complexity.
Cost Factors
What Affects Siding Replacement Cost?
Every siding project is different. Here are the main factors that influence your final price:
- Wall surface area — More square footage means more material and labor
- Penetrations — Windows, doors, vents, and electrical boxes add complexity
- Existing siding removal — Wood, stucco, or multiple layers cost more to remove
- Trim and fascia work — Wrapping windows, replacing trim boards, and soffit/fascia
- Home height — Two-story homes require scaffolding and more labor time
- Material choice — Premium materials like James Hardie cost more than vinyl

The Process
How We Price Your Siding Project
Every home is different. Here is how we determine the final price for your specific project.
Measurement
We measure your home precisely to calculate total square footage and identify areas that affect pricing like gables, dormers, and trim work.
Material Selection
We walk you through your options: vinyl, premium vinyl, or James Hardie fiber cement. Each has different costs, warranties, and benefits.
Site Assessment
We check accessibility, existing siding condition, and any repairs needed to sheathing or trim before new siding goes up.
Written Estimate
You get a detailed, itemized quote showing exactly what you are paying for. No hidden fees or surprise add-ons after we start work.
Vinyl Siding
Vinyl Siding: $4 to $9 per Square Foot
Vinyl remains the most affordable siding option in Omaha. Standard vinyl (.040 thickness) runs $4–$7 per square foot installed, while premium vinyl (.046 or thicker) costs $6–$9. The thicker material holds up better to impact and temperature swings.
We install ProVia and other premium vinyl brands that offer improved fade resistance and deeper wood-grain textures. While vinyl is the budget-friendly choice, keep in mind that it's more susceptible to hail damage and may crack in extreme Nebraska cold.
James Hardie Fiber Cement
James Hardie Siding: $8 to $14 per Square Foot
James Hardie fiber cement is the premium choice for Omaha homes. Royalty Roofing is a James Hardie Elite Preferred Contractor, meaning our crews are factory-trained and we can offer the full 30-year non-prorated warranty on materials and labor.
Hardie siding is engineered specifically for climate zones like Nebraska's with HardieZone technology. It resists hail impact, doesn't crack in freeze-thaw cycles, and won't rot, warp, or attract pests. The ColorPlus factory finish comes with a 15-year fade warranty.
The higher upfront cost pays off in longevity (30–50 years), lower maintenance, and better home value retention. Most homeowners who upgrade to Hardie never need to replace their siding again.
Insurance Claims
Does Insurance Cover Siding After a Hail Storm in Nebraska?
Yes, homeowners insurance typically covers siding damage from hail, wind, and other sudden events. In Nebraska, hail storms frequently damage both roofing and siding on the same home. Here's what you need to know:
Hail Size Thresholds
Vinyl siding typically shows damage at 1" hail or larger. James Hardie can withstand larger impacts but may still sustain damage from 1.5"+ hail. We document all damage for your insurance adjuster.
Combined Roof + Siding Claims
When both roof and siding are damaged by the same storm, they can be covered under one claim. This is often the most efficient way to handle repairs—one deductible, one project timeline.
We work with all major insurance carriers and can meet with your adjuster on-site to ensure all damage is properly documented.
