The biggest cost drivers are total wire length, number of strands, post material, and energizer brand. Rocky ground, sloped terrain, or long driveway crossings add labour hours. Gates, warning signs, and a backup battery also bump the total. A written quote should list each item so you can compare offers line by line instead of guessing at the bottom number.
Local codes often limit fence height, require the wire to face inward, or ban energizers near public walkways. Some areas require a visible warning sign every 10 metres. Your installer should know the rules in your district, but you can save time by calling the building department yourself and asking about setbacks, easements, and any homeowner association limits that apply.
Gates need a proper tension spring or handle that transfers the pulse, plus an underground jumper wire so the gate stays live when open. Corners and ends take the most pull, so use braced H posts or angled stays, not just a plain post. Insulators crack at corners first, so use heavy duty corner insulators rated for the wire tension.
Ask for a written warranty on the energizer (often 2 to 5 years) and a separate labour warranty on the installation, usually 12 months. Request the energizer model, joule rating, ground rod layout, and a simple voltage reading at the furthest point. Store these details with your paperwork so any future repair starts with facts instead of guesswork.
Posts are typically treated wood, steel T-posts, or fibreglass, set every 3 to 5 metres depending on terrain. High-tensile wire holds tension better than soft steel and resists sag over time. Insulators must match the post material; the wrong type lets current leak into the post and drains the energizer. Ask which brand and which UV rating the insulators carry.
Linear footage is the largest driver. After that, post type matters: wood posts cost less than fiberglass or driven steel. Number of strands, gate count, and energizer output joules also move the number. Heavy brush clearing, rock drilling, or long underground runs to reach power can each add hours, so ask which line item covers those.
Pet containment is the top reason, usually for dogs that test fences. Second is deterring wildlife, like deer, raccoons, or stray animals from gardens or trash areas. A third, often overlooked reason is protecting pools, since local codes may require a barrier around water features. Tell the installer which problem matters most, because wire height and spacing depend on it.
A weak ground system is the top cause of underperforming fences. Installers usually drive 2 or 3 galvanized rods 1.8 to 2.4 metres apart, deep enough to reach moist soil. Dry climates may need extra rods or a damp bedding around them. Ask to see the ground rods during the walk-through so you understand what a proper install looks like.
Save the energizer model and serial number, the warranty card, the test voltage reading at the far end of the fence, and the ground resistance value the installer measured. Keep the as built sketch showing post spacing, gate locations, and where the underground cable runs. That sketch saves hours later when you need a repair or a new owner takes over.
An installer needs to see slope, soil type, vegetation, and access for a post driver. Clay, rocky ground, or thick roots change labor time and equipment. They also need to locate the power source, usually an outdoor outlet within 50 feet of the energizer. Ask for a written, line item quote after the walkthrough, not a phone guess.
