What affects fence installation cost?

Fence length, panel or board type, post material, ground conditions, gates and removal of an existing fence all affect the final price.

Hard ground, slopes and difficult access can increase installation time. Ask whether old posts and concrete bases will be removed or left in place.

Make sure each quote covers posts, panels or boards, concrete, gates, disposal and finishing. This makes a low headline price easier to evaluate.
