Calculate the Base Price per Fence Panel

I did a whole bunch of fences Eventually calculated how much material how much time it was taking to do a post to post and I came up with a number That my fence bids are and they are 35 dollars per panel and that is one side of the fence and post to post is a panel So it's 35 dollars from the face of that fence post to post and then if I'm doing both sides Which most of the time it's a shared fence in a neighborhood and the customers only having me do their side And so it's 35 dollars per panel now if they own both sides of the fence or the other opposite neighbors paying to have it done You're gonna have two sides and it's 35 dollars times two and that is the simple Process of how I go about bidding fences all I do is just count up the the Panels so right here. I've got one two three four five six seven eight panels both sides eight times two is 16 16 times 35 is going to be my estimate now of course I am pointing to this fence right here and this isn't eight-foot Post to post sections, but I really just average it out if I run into a fence like this It's shorter But there are gaps into it in between the fence that make it a little bit more difficult to do the fence So there's kind of a trade-off. There's a trade-off This isn't a typical six-foot fence either But it's just all gonna average out to me and I do have to say one thing I don't paint fences to make a living I typically only do fences for customers where I'm painting They're exterior of the house It's very rare that I go just bid a fence and just do the fence because to me There's just not a lot of money in doing fences by themselves I do do them for my customers and once again It's going to be $35 a panel this one here because of the pickets You do have to do the tops and bottoms of the pickets or the horizontal slats You do get over spray going through you know the sides a little bit more than a regular privacy fence But that's kind of the trade-off $35 because it's lower and more narrow I don't want to talk about the $35 charge that we do have a post-supposed I just talked about it just briefly but I did do fences for probably five six years And what I did is just took the average fence that we're doing Eight-foot section that's a post-supposed six-foot high most common fence we did Out of the materials out of the time and labor that it took to do that travel time And then just average it out with an average size length of fence And it just ended up averaging out to about that $35 charge for…
