Typical fence installation prices per linear foot by material, and what affects the cost.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a permit?
Many towns require one, especially for fences over 6 ft or near property lines. Local pros usually know the rules.
How long does a fence last?
Wood fences often last 10–20 years. Vinyl and aluminum can last 20 years or more.
How many quotes should I get?
Two or three is a good rule. Compare the scope, materials, warranty and timeline, not just the price.
