| Service | Price | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Wood & Privacy Fence Installation | From $26/ft | Kansas City clay heaves in spring and cracks open by August, so we set posts below frost depth for a fence line that stays straight for years. We build six-foot cedar and treated pine dog-ear privacy fences to match the look common from Brookside to Raytown, with post spacing sized for local wind. |
| Vinyl & PVC Fence Installation | From $37/ft | Northland subdivisions and older Midtown lots alike deal with humid summers, ice in winter and clay that shifts underfoot. Our vinyl fencing uses reinforced posts and wide rails so panels stay straight without the warping or rot that wood sees here. |
| Chain Link Fence Installation | From $15/ft | Chain link still holds its own on older Midtown lots and along back alleys where budget and durability matter more than looks. We set galvanized posts below frost depth so gates and corners stay square through spring heave and August dry-out. |
| Aluminum & Ornamental Iron Fencing | From $41/ft | Aluminum and iron fencing suits the brick bungalows, four-squares and Tudor cottages found south and east of downtown, adding a finished edge without blocking the view of mature oaks and maples. Powder-coated posts resist the rust that Kansas City humidity causes on bare steel. |
| Fence Repair | From $450 | Expansive clay under Kansas City yards heaves fence lines every spring and pulls them apart again in August drought. We repair leaning posts, broken pickets and sagging rails so your existing fence holds its line without a full rebuild. |
| Storm Damage Fence Repair | Free damage assessment | Spring thunderstorms and winter ice loads bring down panels, snap posts and tear gates off older hinges across the metro. We offer a free on-site assessment, then handle insurance-ready documentation and rebuild so your yard is secure again fast. |
| Fence Post Repair & Replacement | From $450 | Expansive clay and freeze-thaw cycles work posts loose over time, especially on sloped lots common through Waldo and the Northland. We dig below frost depth, set new posts in concrete and match existing panel style so the repair blends in. |
| Gate Installation & Repair | From $475 | Sagging gates are common where alley access and detached garages put daily wear on hinges and hardware. We install and repair walk gates and drive gates, squaring frames and upgrading hardware so they swing true through winter freeze and swelling wood. |
| Automatic & Driveway Gates | From $2,800 | Automatic gates work well on the longer driveways found through Lee's Summit, Raymore and Parkville acreage properties, adding security without a manual swing in bad weather. We wire in openers, keypads and safety sensors rated for Missouri winters. |
| Pool Fence Installation | From $33/ft | Backyard pools are common on the wider ranch and suburban lots through Blue Springs and Lee's Summit, and self-closing gates matter as much as the fence itself. We install self-latching gates and non-climbable panels to meet the barrier code that applies at your address. |
| Fence Replacement & Removal | From $2,300 | Cedar fences from the 1990s and older chain link on alley lots are usually past saving once posts rot or rust through at grade. We tear out and haul away the old line, then install new fencing set to current post depth and spacing for this soil. |
| Fence Staining & Restoration | From $900 | South-facing fence lines fade fastest in Kansas City's humid summers, and the weathered silver-gray look on older cedar usually means the wood is drying out and cracking. We clean, brighten and re-stain to lock moisture back into the wood before winter. |
| Commercial & Temporary Fencing | Free site quote | Construction sites, storefront lots and event grounds across the metro need fencing that goes up fast and comes down clean. We supply temporary panel fencing and permanent commercial chain link or ornamental fencing, with a free site quote before work starts. |
| Farm & Ranch Fencing | From $11/ft | Acreage properties around Pleasant Hill, Harrisonville and Grain Valley need fencing that holds livestock and stands up to rolling glacial hills and clay that shifts every season. We install woven wire, high-tensile and board fencing set to that ground. |
What Affects the Price
- Fence Material and Type : Different materials have different costs. Chain link is the most economical option, while vinyl, wood, and ornamental iron command higher prices due to durability and aesthetic appeal.
- Linear Footage and Project Size : Most fence installations are priced per linear foot. Larger projects may qualify for modest volume discounts, and we always provide accurate measurements during your free estimate.
- Site Conditions and Terrain : Sloped yards, rocky soil, existing fence removal, and accessibility challenges can affect labor time and equipment needs, which we assess during the initial consultation.
