Estimates only — not a quote. Actual price depends on gates, corners, terrain, local labor rates and current material prices in your area. Default prices are public-market averages; switch on “My Pricing” to use your own numbers. Concrete and post-depth figures are planning estimates only — verify local code, frost depth, soil conditions and manufacturer requirements before you dig.
Wood fence cost drivers
- Pressure-treated pine is the budget option; cedar and redwood raise material cost 30–60%.
- A 6 ft privacy fence is the most common spec — roughly 2 pickets per linear foot.
- Gates, corners and sloped terrain increase labor beyond the per-foot average.
