Enter the total length of the fence (ft) and the cost per foot of fence ($/ft) into the Fence Cost calculator. The calculator will evaluate and display the Fence Cost. 

Fence Cost Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Fence Cost. 

FC = L * CPF
  • Where FC is the Fence Cost ($)
  • L is the total length of the fence (ft) 
  • CPF is the cost per foot of fence ($/ft)

To calculate the fence cost, multiply the length of the fence by the cost per foot.

How to Calculate Fence Cost?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Fence Cost.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the total length of the fence (ft). The total length of the fence (ft) is given as 500.
  2. Next, determine the cost per foot of fence ($/ft). The cost per foot of fence ($/ft) is provided as 3.00.
  3. Finally, calculate the Fence Cost using the equation above: 

FC = L * CPF

The values given above are inserted into the equation below:

FC = 500 * 3 = 1,500.00 ($)


Example Problem #2: 

The variables needed for this problem are provided below:

total length of the fence (ft) = 200

cost per foot of fence ($/ft) = 6.00

Entering these values and solving gives:

FC = 200 * 6.00 = 1,200.00($)
