Introduction

A wood fence adds both beauty and functionality to your property. However, it’s important to budget for the cost of materials. The Wood Fence Cost Calculator is designed to help you estimate the expenses associated with building a wood fence, taking into account factors like length, height, material, and style.

Formula

The total cost of a wood fence is calculated by multiplying the cost per foot (which depends on the selected material and style) by the length and height of the fence.

Total Fence Cost = Cost per Foot x Fence Length x Fence Height

Using the Wood Fence Cost Calculator is a simple process:

1. Enter the desired length of your fence in feet in the “Fence Length (in feet)” field.

4. Select the style of the fence from the dropdown menu labeled “Fence Style.”
