Long punch lists and projects with no fixed scope. Billed by the hour, so the total depends on how long it runs.
What the lower end buys
One exterior door, gaps checked the whole way around, the old failed seal pulled off, fresh weatherstrip set to the right compression and a sweep fitted at the bottom. The door still has to close and latch without a shoulder behind it, so we test it before we go.
What the higher end buys
Several doors plus a run of windows in one visit, with brittle old seal to scrape away and gaps that want caulking first, adds up fast. A door racked out of square by a settled house needs alignment work up front, or the new seal wears through by summer.

Biggest price driver
Count of openings drives this. Each door and window is its own small job with its own measuring, cutting and fitting. Windows in a pre-war house rarely match each other, so the seal gets sized opening by opening instead of cut off one long roll.
How to keep your weatherstripping cost down
Take the whole house at once, since the trip and the setup cost the same whether we seal one door or five. On the next windy evening, walk around with a hand out and mark the spots where you feel air moving.
