Wood fencing total average cost per square foot.

Average cost to build a wood gate.

The frame for a basic wooden fence gate should be a simple box with 4 sides usually somewhat smaller than the gate opening. Installing a wood fence costs 13 to 19 per foot on average with most homeowners spending 1 950 to 2 850 for their privacy fencing. The average cost to build an 8 foot wood fence is between 21 and 30 per linear foot using pressure treated pine with dog ear panels. Installation of wood fence gates costs roughly 4 to 8 per linear foot approximately 20 to 60 for a single gate and 50 to 125 for a double gate.

I m quoting 170 for the labor to build the new door 12 to remove the old gate and 22 to install the new gate. The cost of wood fencing depends on the species of wood chosen with the most popular being pine cedar and redwood. Cost can add up quickly especially if you re a novice and have never attempted a wood fencing installation before. Hiring a carpenter to build a custom wood gate could cost around 35 to 75 per hour.

A basic wood gate costs approximately 100 to 500 although elaborate gates could cost 500 to 1 500 or more. I would strongly recommend you hire a licensed and insured fence contractor to perform the installation for you. A lady wants her wooden gate removed and a new one built in its place. Wood is the most common material backyard fencing and can last for 20 years.

She is providing all the materials so my quote is labor only.
