Aluminum Fence Installation







Our fence installation process is tailored to Ocala and Marion County permitting requirements, required utility locates, and Florida wind-load standards. We install wood, vinyl, aluminum, chain link, farm, and commercial fencing for different budgets and property needs, with post depth and concrete footings sized for Florida heat, humidity, sandy soil, acreage, and storm exposure.






Fence Post Replacement
We install five main fence types, each suited to different budgets and property needs.

Actual installation is usually the shortest part of the project. A standard 150 to 200 linear foot backyard privacy fence takes our crew one to two working days. Larger properties, ranch and pasture fencing, or jobs with heavy limestone rock can stretch to three or four days.
Here is how a typical wood or vinyl privacy fence moves through our schedule.

On-Site Assessment
Most residential fencing in Ocala falls between $18 and $65 per linear foot installed. The spread depends almost entirely on material and height.

Chain link (4 Ft, Galvanized) | $18 - $28 |
Wood (6 Ft, Pressure-treated Pine) | $28- $42 |
Vinyl Privacy (6 Ft) | $38- $60 |
Aluminum Ornamental (4-5 Ft) | $33 - $55 |
Farm/Field Fence (non-climb horse wire)

How Much Do Fences Cost?
Linear footage is the number that drives your total. A quarter-acre lot with a rectangular backyard usually needs 150 to 200 feet of fence.
At that size, here's what a typical Ocala project costs:
Perimeter fencing an acre requires about 835 feet if the lot is square. Larger acreage properties often shift to field fence or board fence to keep the number reasonable.
Getting quotes in late fall or winter can save money, since demand drops after hurricane season repairs slow down.
Wood costs less upfront. Metal costs less over time. That trade-off is the core of the decision.

Wood (pressure-treated Pine or Cedar)

Metal (Aluminum or Galvanized Steel)

Frequently Asked Questions About Fence Installation & Repair in Ocala, FL
In most cases, yes. Both the City of Ocala and unincorporated Marion County require a permit for new fence construction, and the requirements differ depending on which jurisdiction your property falls in. Height limits are the most common issue. Residential fences are generally capped at six feet in side and rear yards, with lower limits in front yards and at corner lots where sight-triangle rules apply. Pool barriers have their own standards, including minimum height and self-closing, self-latching gate hardware. We pull permits as part of our service. That includes preparing the site plan, submitting the application, and scheduling inspections so you aren't managing paperwork on your own. If your property is governed by an HOA, you'll also need their approval - we can supply the drawings and material specifications they typically ask for.
Fence installation cost in Ocala depends on material, linear footage, height, terrain, and gate count. Typical installed pricing ranges from $15–$25/ft for 4-ft chain link, $25–$40/ft for 6-ft wood privacy, $35–$55/ft for 6-ft vinyl privacy, $35–$60/ft for ornamental aluminum, and $12–$30/ft for board or ranch fencing. Slopes, limestone, old fence removal, large driveway gates, and automation can increase costs. We provide a clear, itemized fence estimate before work begins.
Most residential fence installation in Ocala takes 1–3 days on site once materials and permits are ready. A typical 150–200 linear foot backyard fence may take about a day, while larger acreage, pasture fencing, and commercial perimeter projects can take several days or longer. Ocala and Marion County permitting often adds 1–3 weeks, and Sunshine 811 requires at least 2 business days before you can dig. We provide a projected schedule with every estimate and update you on weather or permitting delays.
We provide fence repair in Ocala for rotted wood posts, storm-damaged sections, leaning fences, sagging gates, and damaged chain link. If repairs approach 50% of replacement cost, we’ll price both options so you can compare. Free on-site estimates include measurements, soil and grade review, property-line checks, applicable setback and height requirements, and a written quote with materials, gates, permit costs, and timeline.
Professional installation reduces permit risk, ensures proper post depth in Florida's sandy soil, and typically includes a workmanship guarantee. DIY often misses code requirements and wind-load anchoring.
