We just got an estimate for 342' that was around $6,500 (disposal and all).

Are you perhaps in need of someone to spec out a new computer for you to just post on TD with? I can do that at the incredibly low price of $4,500

I've got the same problem as the OP. I need to replace an old rotting 60-foot section of old, 6' rotting wood fence. I don't mind doing demolition, but need the job done pretty quickly to keep a dog in back yard.


make a temporary fence...

Did a 75' straight run myself. Cost was $800 for everything. Auger, concrete, screws & nails, posts and wood. Started at 8am and finished around 3. Lowes sells premade 9' sections of pine if your beta.
you did everything in 6 hours? from setting lines augreing to setting posts to running the stretcher to installing fence boards? hard to believe you did that all alone in that amount of time.

Any recommendations?

I recommend that you sell you house and rent an apartment. If you can't install your own fence, you should not be a homeowner.

Are the posts metal? If so, why not use the same ones?
