Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
In Alpharetta and the broader Metro Atlanta area, labor rates for fence installation generally range from $25 to $50 per hour. For basic installations, this translates to $8-$12 per linear foot, while complex terrain can command $12-$18 per linear foot.
Gate installation in Alpharetta typically costs between $150 and $400 per gate. This range depends on the type of gate, its material, size, and whether it includes automation or specialized hardware.
Material choices significantly impact the total cost. For example, high-security or elegant materials like wrought iron/steel can cost $45-$75 per linear foot. Aluminum fencing often falls within $20.86-$26.54 per linear foot (for a 4 ft fence, excluding gates), while other common materials fit into the $12-$45 per linear foot mid-range.
If an old fence needs to be removed, you should factor in an additional cost ranging from $3-$8 per linear foot for its demolition and hauling away. This should be clearly itemized in your bid.
Complex terrain, such as rocky, hilly, or uneven ground, increases the labor required for installation. This can raise installation costs from the basic $8-$12 per linear foot to $12-$18 per linear foot, and potentially higher for very challenging sites.
