How to read these prices
01
Ranges, not offers
Each range covers typical jobs. Yours could land anywhere in it, or outside it, depending on size, materials and the site. Your price is set in a written quote after we see the job.
02
Real jobs, labelled as examples
Where we show what a past project cost, it's marked as an example. It tells you what that job cost, not what yours will.
03
Plus HST
HST (13% in Ontario) is added to every price on this site. Ranges were last reviewed October 2026, and material prices move.

Visit the online shopWhy prices vary
Six things that move the number.
Size
Length, area and height. Bigger jobs usually cost less per foot, because setup is spread over more work.
Materials
Pressure-treated, cedar or composite; standard or premium pavers; cabinet lines and tile. The same job can vary by thousands.
Access and site
Narrow side yards, slopes, steps and long carries take more labour. Machine access saves time on excavation.
Removal and disposal
Old fences, decks, concrete and finishes have to come out and go somewhere. Bins and dump fees add up.
Permits and drawings
Raised decks, larger sheds, plumbing changes and basement finishing in some cities need drawings, a permit and inspections.
What you can't see
Rot under old decking, buried concrete, wiring behind walls and moisture in basements show up once work starts.
Where the numbers come from
How we set these ranges.
Where we have them, ranges come from our own recent jobs, and the examples are real projects. For work we price less often, we use typical GTA costs for the same scope. We review every range at least twice a year.
Last reviewed October 2026
Are estimates free?
Yes. We'll visit, measure and talk through your options, then send you a written quote. There's no charge and no obligation.
Are the prices on your website quotes?
No. They're planning ranges to help you budget, and the examples are what specific past jobs cost. Your project's price depends on its size, materials and site, so it's set in a written quote after we've seen the job.
Do your prices include HST?
No. HST (13% in Ontario) is added to every price on this site.
How does hourly pricing work for small jobs?
Our rate is $110 per hour with a 4-hour minimum ($440), plus materials and HST. Long-distance travel, specialty materials or disposal can add fees, and we'll tell you up front.
Why do your fences cost more than some quotes I've seen?
Our standard fence is heavier than most: 6×6 posts instead of 4×4, a 2×6 top rail and a board-on-board pattern that stays private as the wood shrinks. If you'd rather keep costs down, we also build on 4×4 posts. Ask for both prices.
