Vinyl is rapidly becoming more popular than a wooden fence. You can also choose from wrought iron or chain link, aluminum, and steel. The cheapest option is a chain link fence at $17 per ft, while a more expensive wrought iron fencing will run you $40 per ft.
Because fence installation costs can be divided equally between labor- and material-intensive materials, it is possible to put up a fence all by yourself. You can just dig a hole, install a post, then hang a fence panel. Building a fence can be complicated if your ground is unevenly graded, difficult to reach, or if you have to hang panels in an even pattern. Although chain-link fences may seem the easiest to make, professional installers can install wrought iron and other metal fences.
A privacy fence can be an option if you live on adjoining land or have backyard property. Wood and vinyl are the best options, but metal can also be used at a higher cost. The average price for a 150-foot privacy fencing is $2,750. It costs between $1500 and $8250. Other privacy fence options include adding lattice at the top or planting green-space friendly privet.
Local fencing contractors will tell you whether a permit is required to construct a fence. There may be restrictions on the height and material used. Building permits are typically between $400 and $850.
Since ancient times, people have used different types of fencing as security measures. Chain-link is an innovation that has been around for a while. Chain-link fencing has enjoyed a wide popularity worldwide since its inception. It is durable, efficient, and relatively inexpensive.

Budgeting for fence installation costs is simple. There are only a few other factors to consider. The cost of installing a fence to cover landscaping will rise if the yard is steep or has thick vegetation. The cost of installing a fence can increase if the builder needs to remove existing fencing or add extra posts or gates.
The material of the fence determines its life expectancy. The lifespan of different woods is dependent on their treatment. A cedar fence could last between 15 and 30 years, while an untreated pine fence might only last 5-12 years. Treatment pine can last for up to 20. Regular maintenance can extend the life of wood fences. Vinyl fencing can resist weathering, provided it is constructed in mild climates. It will last for at least 20 years. Galvanized galvanized chain-link fencing can last for 20 years, depending on its coating and weave. For a longer lifespan, metal fences will need to have a rust-inhibitor coated applied every few year.
Before installing a new fence, you will need to remove your old fence. This will increase the project cost. To save money, you can remove the old fence yourself.
836 feet is the minimum length of fencing required to fully fence a 1 acre parcel of land. Multiply 836 by the cost per linear foot to determine how much it will cost.
