More than just a home improvement store, The Home Depot offers home services to make project completion easy without breaking your budget.
If you’ve been putting off home improvements or repairs because you don’t have the time or energy to find a quality local contractor, this could be a game-changer. Specifically, the company offers more than 400 home improvement services carried out by local contractors.
This can serve as an efficient and affordable way to check projects off your list. Here’s a look at five affordable home services you might not realize are offered by The Home Depot.
All-Inclusive Whole Home Carpet Installation
Available in select markets, complementary installation is available with a minimum carpet purchase of $699. This includes having old carpet ripped up and hauled away, furniture moving and stairs.
This offer applies to single-family residential jobs only. Your purchase must include qualified carpet padding as noted in The Home Depot Carpet Buying Guide.
Door Installation
The Home Depot’s exterior and interior door installation service includes a variety of features, such as your choice of door, professional measurement, door delivery — within 30 miles of a Home Depot store — installation/labor, job site cleanup and free disposal of your existing doors.
Prices vary according to several factors, such as style of door, condition of the home, labor required, number of doors being installed — you can save by doing several at once — and geographic location. Generally speaking, interior door installation averages $178-$398, exterior door installation costs $398-$998 and patio doors are approximately $498-$1,298.
Fence Installation
You can request a free in-home consultation to have a licensed, local Home Depot fence installer measure your yard and design a fence that meets your needs. Specific costs of fence installation vary according to several factors, such as the type of fence, material, length, terrain, local regulations and labor expenses.
As of 2022, the average cost of fence installation was $6,700, according to The Home Depot.
Water Heater Installation
If you want The Home Depot to install a water heater, you’ll start with an in-home consultation and site inspection. On installation day, your service provider will test and inspect your new water heater and haul away your old one.
Costs vary according to several factors, but average between $1,600-$5,400. This includes the price of the water heater, permits, installation materials, installation and removal of the old unit.
Window Installation
If you need new windows, you might be interested in The Home Depot’s current price match guarantee, allowing you to save up to 20% on installed windows and doors. To get you started, a design consultant will visit your home, discuss window options with you, take measurements and provide you with a free quote — or you can opt for a virtual consultation.
The cost of new window installation varies according to many factors, including window size, glass type, color, grid pattern, décor and geographic location. However, all full-service window installation cost estimates include the price of the selected window(s) and/or patio doors, as well as applicable permit fees, installation/labor and taxes.
Editor’s note: Pricing and availability may vary depending on location.
