| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Wood & Privacy Fence Installation | From $24/ft | Wood privacy is the default fence across Memphis, from Midtown's shotgun lots to the ranch rows further out. We set posts deep enough for the wind-blown silt on the bluff, since it turns slick once saturated and rarely holds a post firm on its own. |
| Vinyl & PVC Fence Installation | From $34/ft | Vinyl fencing holds up well against Memphis humidity and the wind that rolls off the bluff each spring. Posts still need footings deep enough for the loose silt underneath, especially on older Midtown lots where roots run close to the line. |
| Chain Link Fence Installation | From $15/ft | Chain link still holds on across Memphis's older neighborhoods, especially where lots run narrow and budgets matter. We set posts deep enough to stand in the wind-blown silt, since it turns soft and slick after heavy rain. |
| Aluminum & Ornamental Iron Fencing | From $39/ft | Aluminum and iron fencing suits Memphis's flat, bluff-top ranch lots well. Posts still go in deep, since Memphis silt turns loose and slick once soaked through by spring storms. |
| Fence Repair | From $425 | Fence repair in Memphis usually starts at the post, where wind-blown silt shifts once it gets soaked. We reset the post in fresh concrete and match the repair to your existing wood or chain link line. |
| Storm Damage Fence Repair | Free damage assessment | Straight-line wind events and derechos move through Memphis in spring and summer, flattening long runs of wood fence. We assess the damage, clear downed limbs from oak and sweetgum canopy, and rebuild the line section by section. |
| Fence Post Repair & Replacement | From $425 | A leaning fence post in Memphis usually means the loess silt shifted after a soaking rain. We dig out the old footing and reset the post in fresh concrete, since frost here rarely reaches past a foot. |
| Gate Installation & Repair | From $450 | A gate on a Memphis fence often sags first, since posts set in loess silt shift once the ground saturates. We reset the hinge post deep and adjust hardware so the gate swings true through wind and heavy rain. |
| Automatic & Driveway Gates | From $2,600 | Automatic driveway gates across Memphis need posts set well past the loose top layer of loess silt. We wire openers and keypads to handle summer storms and the wind that rolls off the bluff. |
| Pool Fence Installation | From $32/ft | A pool fence in Memphis has to meet the pool barrier code that applies at your address. We set posts deep in the loess silt and size gaps and gate latches to keep children safely away from the water. |
| Fence Replacement & Removal | From $2,200 | Fence replacement in Memphis often means clearing decades-old wood or chain link before new posts go into the silt. We haul off the old fence and set new posts deep enough for Memphis's shifting ground. |
| Fence Staining & Restoration | From $875 | Wood fences in Memphis take a beating from summer humidity and winter ice loading limbs onto the line. We clean, sand and reseal the wood so it holds up through another round of oak and sweetgum limb fall. |
| Commercial & Temporary Fencing | Free site quote | Commercial and temporary fencing across Memphis has to stand up to straight-line wind events and derecho gusts. We set panels for job sites, events, and site security across Shelby County, adjusting layout for flat bluff-top ground. |
| Farm & Ranch Fencing | From $11/ft | Farm and ranch fencing east of Memphis has to hold up across flat bluff-top pasture and softer bottomland soil. We set posts deep enough for the loose silt and alluvium so fences hold through wet spells and spring storms. |
What Affects the Price
- Fence Material & Type : Different materials have different costs. Chain link is the most affordable option, while vinyl, wood, and ornamental iron command higher prices due to durability and aesthetics. Premium materials like aluminum ornamental fencing reflect superior longevity and appearance.
- Linear Footage & Project Size : Most fence installations are priced per linear foot. Larger projects may qualify for modest per-foot discounts, while smaller jobs have higher base costs. Gate installations and automatic systems are priced individually based on complexity.
- Site Conditions & Terrain : Sloped yards, rocky soil, existing debris, or difficult access increases labor time and equipment needs. We assess your property during the free estimate to account for these real-world factors.
- Removal, Repair & Restoration Work : Removing old fencing, repairing damaged posts, or restoring stained wood adds to project costs. Storm damage repairs may require emergency scheduling. Each situation is unique, which is why we provide detailed estimates.
