Corner Return Installation Cost

Construction Item Description

Exterior construction estimating unit cost for installation of corner return details at roof eaves.

Unit Size

One pair (two corners).

Labor Costs

We figure about 8 hours for a skilled carpenter to install a pair of corner returns at the bottoms of a gable. They are surprisingly complicated!

Material Costs

18 board feet of pine trim, plus six square feet of copper flashing.

Suggested Quantity

Goldenseal suggests one pair for each gable.

Source of Construction Pricing

Based on crew timing and/or job costing data from a few installations done by Turtle Creek Construction.
