Question

Anyone Know About Pipe Fence


Any help will be appreciated, I am a GC in Houston TX, I am building three additions on this house and they asked me to work up a bid on a pipe fence around their front entrance of their land and all the way around their house a total of 1049ft of pipe fence with an automatic gate opener. The fence he wants will be 5 ft high with three rails. Now this job is about an hour outside of town and they have a hard time getting contractors to come this far can anyone help with a price for this type of fence, Thanks for the help

Re: Anyone Know About Pipe Fence


So the fence is just the upright pipe, using loop caps for the top rail, then boulevard clamps( think -+-) to attach the middle and bottom rails? Sounds very time consuming if your lines are not centered right for precut pipe. But just like wood rail fence, fi you can get your poles accurately spaced then once layed out should go smoothly. Sorry, I have no idea on pricing/hours for that, except it's gonna be lots of $$$.
