Generally, fence is priced according to how many linear feet are required, what materials are used, any unique circumstances on the project, whether electrical work is needed, and what kind of gating systems are installed, if any.

Zoning ordinances and HOA requirements can affect the size of the fence you are allowed to install as well as the material you are allowed to use.

Almost every property in city limits has some form of utility under or near it. It’s very important that property owners understand whether their fence will be installed over a water pipe, electrical conduit or cable line. Aside from the possibility of electrocution during installation, it might be necessary for a utility to dig up your fence in order to make a future repair. This can be very expensive, so planning ahead is always the best bet.
