Vinyl comes as ready-made panels that slot into routed posts, so labour is quicker than wood. HomeAdvisor puts a typical 150 ft vinyl fence at $4,500 to $9,000.
How the estimate works
Cost = fence length × price per linear foot + gates + removal of an old fence. The range uses the low and high installed prices for the fence type you pick.
Example: vinyl (pvc) for 100 ft comes to about $3,000 to $6,000, with a midpoint of $4,500.

Common questions
How much does a fence cost per foot?
Installed fences in the US typically cost about $9 to $30 per linear foot for chain link, $20 to $50 for wood, $30 to $60 for vinyl and $50 to $85 for wrought iron, according to HomeAdvisor.
Why do quotes vary so much?
Height, post spacing, the number of gates and corners, rocky or sloping ground, permits and local labour rates all change the price. Short fences cost more per foot because set-up costs are spread over fewer feet.
Does the price include removing my old fence?
Usually not. Removal is quoted separately; sources put it at about $3 to $20 per linear foot depending on the fence and how far it is hauled.
Do I need a permit?
Many towns require a permit for fences over a certain height, often 6 ft in back yards and 3 to 4 ft in front yards. Check with your local building department and any homeowners association.
How can I lower the cost?
Get at least three quotes, keep the fence to standard heights, limit the number of gates and corners, and consider doing the demolition or staining yourself.
