Hey guys, so I bought my first house this past November. One of the first projects I wanted to tackle was replacing my ugly chain link fence with a wooden fence both to keep my dogs in and for privacy from the road and to cut down road noise as I live next to a fairly busy street.
I knew it was going to be expensive but at the end of the day was actually pretty happy with the deal I got. I wound up paying $4400 for a wooden fence of pressure treated wood. My posts were 36' deep, I wound up going with pressure treated shadowbox/board and batton style fence with dog eared tops and one gate.
Now the cost will vary depending upon where you are in the country, lumber costs at the given time, whether you do cedar or pressure treated wood, and also if you decide to go with 2x6 or 2x8 kicker boards as opposed to the standard 2x4's.
I'd suggest getting a couple quotes. Don't let the company ask you how much you're looking to spend as they will build a fence to fit that price, ask them what they would suggest and the options and after talking to a few contractors you'll begin to get an idea of the costs as well as picking the different contractors brains for ideas and suggestions.
