Few upgrades deliver curb appeal, privacy, and low-maintenance living like a PVC fence. Yet “How much will it cost?” is still the first question every homeowner and contractor faces. CountBricks combines AI voice capture, real-time material feeds, and instant labor benchmarking to remove the guesswork from pvc fence pricing. Below you’ll find a transparent look at what drives cost, how prices fluctuate in today’s market, and the fastest path to an accurate, professional estimate.
• Entry-grade hollow vinyl panels: $18-$24 per linear foot
• Mid-grade PVC with aluminum reinforcement: $25-$34 per linear foot
• Premium wood-grain or color-through boards: $35-$48 per linear foot
Higher grades resist fading and warping longer. CountBricks pulls current distributor pricing every 15 minutes so your estimate always reflects market realities, not last month’s catalog.
• 4"x4" posts set 24" deep in quick-set concrete: material + labor average $42 per post
• 5"x5" posts for taller (6-8') fences: material + labor average $58 per post
Posts account for nearly 30% of a typical PVC fence budget. Reinforced posts in high-wind zones can add 8-12% to overall cost—data CountBricks flags automatically when you identify your zip code.
Hourly install rates vary from $48 on rural crews to $85 in dense metros. CountBricks references localized labor tables updated quarterly so you can quote competitively while protecting margin.
• Clearing shrubs or dismantling an old fence: $3-$6 per linear foot
• Grading uneven terrain: $350-$1,100 depending on slope and equipment access
• Utility marking & permits: $75-$200
Hidden preparation charges often derail budgets. CountBricks voice prompts automatically capture these details during your on-site walk-through so nothing gets missed.
Pen-and-paper takeoffs or static spreadsheets rely on static pricing and human memory—two things that change daily. The result is under-bids, embarrassing change orders, and profit leakage. Paper quotes also take hours, forcing contractors to choose between evenings at the desk or evenings with family.

Pricing is only half the story; long-term return on investment matters just as much to homeowners weighing PVC against wood or composite. CountBricks helps contractors demonstrate ROI clearly inside every proposal.
• A pressure-treated wood fence may cost 15-20% less up front, yet annual staining and board replacements average $430 per year on a typical suburban lot.
• PVC’s maintenance cost averages $60 per year for occasional cleaning. Over 10 years, homeowners save more than $3,700—an insight CountBricks adds automatically to proposals when you select the “ROI slide” option.

The built-in ROI page highlighted $4,100 maintenance savings over wood. Result: instant client approval and a signed digital contract before the crew left the driveway.
