What’s different about Sioux Falls
Sioux Falls is South Dakota's largest market with the deepest contractor pool, where cold winters and Plains hail favor durable, impact-resistant exteriors.
- 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.
