Wooden Facade: What Does It Cost?

A wooden facade costs an average of 190 euros per square meter.

One square meter of wooden facade costs between 84 and 296 euros.

A wooden facade is aesthetic, natural, and warm. Choosing a wooden facade means opting for a sustainable type of house cladding. The material provides excellent thermal insulation for the building envelope.

This allows you to reduce heating costs while improving living comfort. The natural material is not only environmentally friendly but also contributes to a pleasant indoor climate — especially recommended for allergy sufferers and asthmatics.

The following factors can further influence the total price of the building envelope:

• Type of wood

• Insulation measures

• Number of windows and window sills

• Additional scaffolding costs

What Travel Costs Should I Expect?

If the project site is outside the service area, many craftsmen charge a travel flat rate. Depending on the region, this can range between 10 and 50 euros.

Are There Any Subsidies?

If you want to build a wooden facade, various energy efficiency funding programs are available. This means you don’t have to pay all the costs yourself.
Federal, state, and local governments, as well as other institutions, provide funding. An energy consultant can help you find and apply for suitable financing options.

How Much Do Material and Labor Cost?
