If you’re budgeting a exterior trim repair in Boise, most projects run $147-$1,965, 2% below the $550 national average. What moves that number most is usually one thing: Trim Material.

In the Mountain West (where Boise sits): Denver and Salt Lake City near or above national average; UV exposure at altitude accelerates paint failure.
