Example: A Typical Amarillo Backyard
Fencing the back and sides of a typical Amarillo lot takes roughly 120 to 200 linear feet, often with a side gate and an alley gate. At $18 to $40 per foot, 150 feet of 6 ft cedar on steel posts lands around $2,700 to $6,000 before gates and tear-out.
Where These Numbers Come From
Published Amarillo data puts installed 4 ft fences at roughly $9 to $29 per foot, with wood privacy around $15 to $24 depending on height and chain link at the bottom of the range. National guides from HomeAdvisor, Angi and NerdWallet show similar wood and chain link prices, and put wrought iron and ornamental steel at $25 per foot and up. Our ranges add the cost of steel posts and deeper footings, which is how we build for Amarillo wind.
What Changes the Price
- Footage: the biggest factor by far.
- Height: 8 ft privacy, allowed behind the front-yard line, needs more boards and heavier posts than 6 ft.
- Posts: steel posts cost a bit more than wood up front and outlast them by years.
- Gates: a basic walk gate often starts around $150; wide, premium and drive gates commonly run $400 to $1,200 or more.
- Tear-out: national guides put removal around $3 to $5 per foot. We itemize it.
- Ground: caliche and canyon rock slow down post holes.
- Permits: most Amarillo fences need none. Pool barriers do, and we include the permit in your quote.
Pricing Pipe Fence and Acreage
Pipe fence around Bushland, Canyon and the canyon communities is priced by total footage, rail count and fill. National data puts installed pipe fence around $13.50 to $40 per foot, and a one-acre perimeter of roughly 835 feet commonly lands somewhere between $11,000 and $33,000. Corners, gates and rocky ground add the most labor, so we walk the whole line before quoting.
Ways to Save
- Use chain link or pipe on long back lines and privacy only near the patio
- Choose shadowbox or side-by-side cedar over board-on-board
- Fix failed posts with a steel retrofit instead of replacing a sound fence

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the cheapest fence to install in Amarillo?
Chain link usually has the lowest cost per foot. For privacy on a budget, side-by-side pine or cedar on steel posts is the lowest-cost option.
Are steel posts worth the extra cost?
In Amarillo, yes. Wood posts are what fail in the wind. Steel posts cost a little more up front and usually save you from rebuilding sections after windy springs.
Is iron worth the price?
For front yards and pools, many homeowners think so. Iron lasts for decades, needs little upkeep and isn't bothered by wind or hail.
Is a permit included in the price?
Most Amarillo fences need no permit. When one is required, like for a pool barrier, it's included in your written quote.
