These are the ranges seen across Valencia, Saugus, Newhall, Canyon Country, Stevenson Ranch, Castaic and Val Verde in 2026 for virgin-PVC, UV-stabilized fence on 5x5 posts in concrete. Big-box installed programs advertise lower per-foot numbers for thinner panels on 4x4 posts at 8 ft spacing; the difference shows up in the first Santa Ana season.
Typical installed ranges for common Santa Clarita yards, built from the same per-foot figures:
| Common yard | Typical installed range |
|---|---|
| 100 ft of 6 ft privacy on a flat yard | $3,800–$5,800 |
| 150 ft of 6 ft privacy, old wood fence removed, one walk gate | $6,650–$10,550 |
| 120 ft of semi-privacy on a sloped yard | $5,520–$8,760 |
| 60 ft pool isolation fence with one self-closing gate | $2,750–$4,250 |
| 400 ft of three-rail ranch fence with a 10–12 ft double gate | $9,100–$15,800 |
What pushes a per-foot price up or down
Material grade
Wall thickness, virgin versus recycled PVC, and whether the bottom rail has a metal insert. The cheap panel and the good one look identical on day one.
Posts, spacing and concrete
5x5 posts at 6 ft centers with three bags each cost more than 4x4 at 8 ft with one bag. On an exposed lot it is the difference between a fence and a pile of panels.
Removal and access
Tearing out a wood fence with concrete footings, carrying material through a 3 ft side gate, or working on a hillside with no truck access all add labor hours.
Soil
Decomposed granite augers in minutes; sandstone and caliche in Canyon Country, Castaic and Val Verde take a rock bit or a hammer per hole.
Gates and corners
Each gate is a reinforced post pair plus hardware; each corner and end is a special post. A yard with four gates and six corners costs more per foot than a straight 100 ft run.
Color and caps
Tan, gray and woodgrain panels carry a material premium; decorative caps and accent tops add per run.
How a written fence price is put together
The installer walks the line, measures with a wheel, counts corners, ends and gates, test-digs a hole or two, and asks about the HOA. The written price lists the linear feet by style, the gates individually, removal and disposal as a line, and the slope or soil adjustment as a line, with the brand and profile of the panel named so a second price can be compared to it. The number changes only if the scope changes on site — bedrock at 12 inches on every hole, or a neighbor who wants the shared line done too — and that is confirmed with the homeowner before the work continues.
Vinyl versus wood, iron and block over twenty years
Pressure-treated or redwood privacy fence installs for roughly $25–$40 per foot in the valley but needs staining every three to five years and replacement in 15–25. Vinyl at $38–$58 is low-maintenance: a hose and an occasional brush. Tubular steel view fencing runs $35–$60 per foot and is the HOA's choice on slope lots. Block walls start around $80–$120 per foot with engineering. Over twenty years the installed-plus-maintenance cost of vinyl is the lowest of the four for a privacy fence, with the caveat that it is the one that can crack from a hard impact and the one that softens in a wildfire.
The cheapest fence on the day it goes in is rarely the cheapest fence twenty years later.
Vinyl Fence Cost in Santa Clarita — common questions
Is vinyl fence priced by the foot or by the panel?
By the linear foot installed, with gates priced each. Panel pricing is a material-only number and leaves out posts, concrete and labor.
Does the price include removing the old fence?
Only when it is listed as a line. The per-foot ranges on this page are for new fence; removal adds $4–$8 per foot and should appear separately on any written price.
