Fence Cost Estimator
Estimate the cost of a fence from its length, height and materials.
Budgeting a fence
A fence's cost depends on its length and height, the material, and the posts, fixings and labour to install it. This estimates the total from those inputs, so you can budget the project and compare materials before deciding.
Enter the fence length, height and material to see an estimated cost.
The costs beyond the panels
It is easy to price a fence by its panels alone and be surprised by the final bill, because the posts, the concrete to set them, gates, and labour all add substantially. Material choice makes a big difference too — a basic timber fence, a more durable hardwood, or a low-maintenance composite or metal sit at very different price points, and the cheapest to buy is not always cheapest to own once maintenance is counted. Ground conditions and access affect labour as well.
Common questions
What costs are easy to forget in a fence?
The posts, the concrete to set them, gates, and labour — pricing by panels alone understates the real total.
Does material choice matter much?
Yes — timber, hardwood, composite and metal sit at very different prices, and the cheapest upfront is not always cheapest once maintenance is counted.
Is this an exact price?
No — it is a planning estimate. Real costs depend on your site, access and local prices, so get quotes for the actual job.
