What Fencing Material Is Right for You?

Getting in touch with a skilled fencing pro can help you understand what type of fence you should ask for. Some fences enclose a yard and keep strangers from looking in. Chain-link fences give some security but don't do anything for privacy.

Fences are made of a number of materials. A fencing expert will help you choose the right option for your yard, needs, and location.

What You Should Have to Pay for a New Fence Build

The cost to install a new fence can range from $500 to $7,000 on average. The amount of fencing required and the type of materials used are the biggest factors in determining how much you'll have to pay.

Normal metal fencing, such as chicken wire, typically has the lowest cost. Chain-link fences are also lower-cost options. Other types of materials like vinyl are typically the most expensive.

Most fencing pros build prices based on linear feet. That's the measurement of how long the fence needs to be to cover the desired area. Typically, having a fence installed will cost you $1 to $45 per linear foot.

Prices for fencing projects may include more than the labor and materials to install the fence. Some other factors that can add to the cost include:

  • Getting necessary permits
  • Having the ground checked for utility lines before digging
  • Prepping the area, such as getting rid of debris or building up or flattening the ground to better support the fence

The best fence installation business for your job can put you in touch with one of its reps to review the details, including the right materials and costs, with you. Get started by searching for a fence contractor so you can enjoy your new fence as soon as possible.

Frequently asked questions

  • Budget: Your budget is central in influencing which fence you buy. Figure out your spending limit and determine your budget per linear foot, as fencing costs can quickly add up.
  • Durability: Consider strength, lifespan, resistance to pests, rot and fungus, rust, and the material’s ability to withstand local weather conditions.
  • Maintenance: Maintenance, cleaning and repairs should be simple and minimal.
  • Purpose: The style of fence you choose should be suitable for its intended purpose. 
  • Installation: Find out what installation requirements, such as foundations or supports, are necessary. Research if DIY is possible or if professional installation is your only option.

  • Wood fence styles range from traditional to contemporary and from purely functional to attractive and decorative.
  • Lattice fences are affordable and decorative. You can use them as privacy fences by growing dense foliage over them.
  • Vertical board fences are the most common type of residential fence. There are budget-friendly options available as well as higher-end panels. Vertical board fences are affordable choices for basic privacy and security fences.
  • Picket fences conjure up cozy images of traditional properties with carefully tended lawns. They’re good for demarcating a property boundary but don’t provide much security.
  • Post-and-rail fences are a solid choice for making a boundary over a large area, as material use is minimal. However, they don’t provide any security or privacy.
  • Metal fences are generally stronger and more secure than other materials. You can choose from highly ornate and secure metalwork or simple but functional wire. For the higher-end options, which are often costly, homeowners often reduce costs per square foot by combining the metal with brick.
  • Aluminum fencing is an attractive, more affordable alternative to wrought iron. Although it has a similar appearance, it’s not as strong as wrought iron.
  • Steel fencing is a strong, long-lasting fencing option that’s good for creating a secure barrier around your home.
  • Vinyl fencing made from PVC comes in a range of styles, including those that mimic real wood.
  • Composite fencing is an amalgamation of wood fibers, pulp or sawdust and ground plastic particles that are bonded and held together by an acrylic resin. It looks and feels like real wood and is an environmentally friendly choice, as it usually contains a high percentage of recycled materials.
  • Wire fences are not made to enhance the aesthetics of your property, although some homeowners opt for black fencing to help boost aesthetics. They are inexpensive, purely functional products suitable for DIY or professional installation.
  • Barbed wire fencing isn’t common in residential settings. While it’s an inexpensive, fierce and intimidating security deterrent, it isn’t attractive and will not add value to your home.
