What’s different about Davenport
Davenport sits in the Quad Cities along the Mississippi, where humid summers, hail, and freeze-thaw cycles drive exterior durability needs.
- Posts are set below the frost line, which deepens the holes and adds concrete.
- Severe-storm exposure favors impact-resistant materials.
How the cost is built
Fence cost depends on linear footage, height, and material — chain-link and wood are cheaper, while vinyl, aluminum, and composite cost more. Gates, sloped or rocky terrain, post setting in concrete, and tearing out an old fence all raise the price.
