Fence Pricing


Can anyone tell me the average labor rate for installing a three board fence? Also the average price for painting a three board fence? I am located in central va and want to stay competitive. Thanks for the help.

I'll assume you are saying a 1x6 or 1x8 nailed to the face of a flat post?I do a per post price on all fencing, something as simple as that should fetch around $30 to $40 per post,labor only,of course if its only 2 or 3 post,you need to charge min, My min is $350

Re: Fence Pricing


Are you talking about a simple 4x4 post with 2x4's between and 1x6 dog ear fence boards?

Re: Fence Pricing


actually, what works for me on standard redwood fencing is the cost in materials, times two, plus twenty percent.
