Fence Cost Per Foot?

I.just split the cost on 43 ft section that went down during Ida. 4 x 4 post, 6 ft high cedar pickets, shadow box design, $44 per linear foot (total, we split that $44/ft in 1/2).

We did have 2 quotes from reputable companies and they were similar in price.

They also quoted another 45 ft section I share with another neighbor (technically neighbors fence but I’ve offered to pay 1/2), same design but pickets in this case are pine. $34 per linear foot.

Just had a pretty basic fence put up, 6 foot posts, pine pickets, no shadow boxing or anything of that nature, $23/foot

treated pine in br just got quoted for $26 ish a foot

Isnt wood back down close to normal pricing now? I know labor is high still but about 2 years ago prices were around $13-17/ ft including labor right? That was about 1/2 labor/ income and half materials?

Talked to a friend last night who's doing a lot of fence replacement since Ida hit the area and he told me just for the metal fence posts to do 6 ft. tall wood fence are running $30+ each and cedar fence boards are running around $4.50 each. Treated fence boards just a bit more than half that cost.

Then you have concrete costs, those metal connectors for the stringer runs, bolts to hold the stringers to the posts, screws to secure the fence boards to the stringers and the stringers themselves.
