Typical costs: Wood privacy fencing runs $20–$45 per linear foot installed. Vinyl is $25–$50. Chain-link is $10–$25. A typical 150 ft residential fence costs $3,000–$7,500 depending on material.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How much does fencing & gate installation cost in Seattle?
- Budget $20–$45 per linear foot for wood privacy fencing, $25–$50 for vinyl, and $10–$25 for chain-link — all installed. A typical residential project (150–200 ft) runs $3,000–$9,000. Gates add $300–$1,000+ each depending on width and whether they're automated.
- How do I find a reliable fencing & gate installation contractor in Seattle?
- Ask about post-setting method (concrete-set posts last much longer) and material warranties. Good fence installers will check for underground utilities before digging and can advise on setback requirements so you don't have to move the fence later.
- Do I need a permit for fencing & gate installation in Seattle?
- Most areas require a fence permit, especially for front-yard or tall fences. There are usually height limits (4 ft front yard, 6 ft back) and setback requirements from property lines. Your installer should know local regulations.
