Add-ons
- Gates: under $150 to around $2,000; side gates often $400 to $1,200.
- Old fence removal: about $3 to $5 per linear foot, plus dumping.
- Permits: Angi's national average is $20 to $60.
Example
A 160-foot back-yard fence, 6 feet tall in wood with one gate: $1,600 to $7,200 for the fence at national per-foot rates, plus the gate. In chain link: $1,280 to $6,400.
Local factors
- 8-foot fences: allowed in back, but longer posts, more material and a likely permit.
- Slope to the curb: heights are measured from the curb, which can mean stepping panels down on rising ground.
- Rentals: landlords often choose chain link or vinyl to keep upkeep low.
