What’s different about Aberdeen

Aberdeen's small, rural market can raise labor and material costs, and severe winters with hail exposure demand durable exterior construction.

  • 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.
