Cedar post fence estimating, piece by piece

Peeled cedar post fence is priced post by post and brace by brace, and a generic calculator gets it wrong. FenceDraft prices every cedar piece from your own catalog, at the size you set it.

Every cedar piece, at its own size

Line posts, brace posts and horizontal braces each price from your cedar catalog, with posts matched to the fence height.

Line posts on your spacing.Set the center-to-center spacing and the count follows every run.

Gate H-braces built in.Each gate gets its brace, and the brace span comes out of the line-post count.

Wire that fits.The wire selector only offers wire that matches the fence height, with barbed or smooth strands added over the top.

Peeling labor counted on every post and horizontal brace.

Gates

Cedar post gates are welded diamond-braced steel frames covered with cattle panel, hung on J-bolts. The pull sheet lists the tubing, J-bolts, hinges, latch and drop rod.

From the estimate to the truck

One estimate produces everything the job needs:

A customer proposal with your scope language, ready to sign online, with the deposit collected at signing.
A job cost sheet showing material, labor and margin.
A pull sheet the yard checks off on a phone.
A crew sheet in English and Spanish, with a dimensioned site plan and no dollar amounts.

Draw the fence over satellite imagery with property lines shown, or enter the footage by hand. Either way, the material count is the same.
