How to write a fence estimate

A fence estimate lives or dies on linear footage. Customers usually know they want 'a privacy fence along the back,' but they rarely know it's 160 feet with two gates and an old chain-link fence to remove first. Walking the line, measuring it and writing it down is what turns a rough idea into a number they can approve. The material choice drives most of the price difference between quotes: pressure-treated pine, cedar, vinyl, aluminum and chain link all cost and install differently. Gates deserve their own lines because hardware and framing take more time than a straight run. Mention property lines and buried utilities too. You are not the surveyor, and the estimate should say the homeowner confirms where the fence goes.

Frequently asked questions

Who is responsible for knowing the property line?
Usually the property owner. Many contractors include a line saying the customer confirms the boundary and recommending a survey when it's unclear. Check local rules and any HOA guidelines on setbacks and height before installing.

Should the estimate include removing my old fence?
It should if the job needs it. Tear-out and disposal take real time and dump fees, so put it on its own line. That way the customer can see the cost and decide whether to handle it themselves.

Why does a fence estimate need a deposit?
Fence materials are often ordered or picked up before the job starts, and custom gates or vinyl colors can't easily be returned. A deposit at signing covers that risk. Some states limit deposits on home-improvement work, so check your state's rules.
