Average job cost from the 2025 Cost vs. Value Report (Zonda / JLC). Each figure is for one defined project scope, not your home. Your price depends on size, materials, access, damage found and the contractor.

How to use these numbers

  • Each figure is for one specific project scope; read the scope before comparing.
  • Use them to check that a quote is in a reasonable range, not as a target price.
  • Ask a contractor to explain any quote far above or below these averages.

Checking a contractor in South Carolina

The South Carolina Residential Builders Commission, part of SC LLR, licenses residential builders and licenses or registers residential specialty contractors. Look a contractor up on the LLR website before you sign, and ask for a certificate of insurance.

South Carolina's 2024 building codes take effect on January 1, 2027, according to SC LLR. Ask your contractor how that affects any project permitted around that date.

Permits are issued by your city or county, such as the City of Greenville or Greenville County. Your contractor usually pulls the permit; confirm who does in writing.
