Calculate your baseline first
It divides the net fence run by post spacing to estimate bays, adds end/corner and gate posts, then calculates panels or pickets, rails, concrete bags and material cost. Waste is applied to fence boards or panels.
Many residential fences use about 6–8 ft post spacing, but the right spacing depends on fence type, height, wind exposure, soil and local code. Heavier or taller fences often need closer spacing.
No. The estimate focuses on core materials. Labor, removal, permit fees, utility marking, post-hole excavation, hardware, stain, fasteners and site conditions can add significant cost.
Results are estimates generated locally in your browser from the dimensions and prices entered. Fence designs, codes, easements, property lines, utilities, frost depth, wind loads, terrain and product specifications vary. Verify all measurements and requirements with suppliers, utility marking services and qualified professionals before purchase or installation.
