Installing Fences

Anybody out there know what the going rate is on installing fences?? I do side work with a guy who does this for a living. I've pretty much learned everything about this game, but what to charge. I only make about $12/hr. but I know this guy is making between $1k-$2k/ week. I've gotten to the point where I just wanna do this for myself. Can anybody help??

Re: Installing Fences

Uhmm, what kind of fence?

It could make a difference.

Have you seen Peladu's post on estimating? It could be helpful.

Here is a link to it.http://www.contractortalk.com/f11/price-your-project-here-honest-prices-given-12353/

Let me know if this helps.

Re: Installing Fences

$25/lin. foot to $150/lin. foot - depends on how much you want to make!

You're not asking very specific questions nor providing much information...
