Fencing
Fencing jobs price differently based on material, length, and terrain, which makes it exactly the kind of category where getting more than one bid matters most. GroundBid gets you sealed bids from multiple vetted local providers on the same job, so you're comparing real prices for your specific property, not a single quote with no comparison point.
What's typically included
Installation and repair of wood, vinyl, chain-link, and metal fencing, plus gate installation and post replacement.
What to include in your job post
Fencing jobs price very differently based on details a photo can't always capture on its own — note the approximate linear footage, material preference, terrain (flat vs. sloped), and whether any old fencing needs to be removed first. The more of this you include up front, the more confidently providers can bid, and the less likely you are to see a low bid get revised upward once the provider actually sees the job.
Licensing note
Fencing installation itself is usually not separately licensed beyond general contractor requirements, but many municipalities have permit and property-line setback rules for fences above a certain height — that's a property-specific and local question GroundBid doesn't verify on your behalf. If you're unsure, check with your local permitting office before posting.
How it works
Same process as every category on GroundBid: post with photos and the details above, get sealed bids for 24 hours, accept the one you want, and pay from escrow once the work is confirmed done. Full walkthrough: how sealed bidding works.
