Fence or deck in Ocala

Around Ocala, fences are part of the landscape. Marion County's visitors bureau bills the county as the Horse Capital of the World, says it's home to more horses than anywhere else in the country, and counts 600 thoroughbred horse farms. If you own acreage here, your project may be a long run of board fence along a pasture, not a short stretch of privacy panels.

A pool brings the state into it. If your fence is meant to keep kids out of the pool, Florida's Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act says the barrier has to be at least four feet high on the outside. It can't have gaps or footholds a young child could crawl under, squeeze through or climb over. Gates must open outward, away from the pool, and close and latch on their own, with the latch release on the pool side and out of a child's reach.

Your yard fence can count as part of that barrier only where it runs along the pool's perimeter and meets those same rules.

Questions homeowners ask

How accurate is a photo estimate?
It’s a ballpark, not a quote. A photo tells us a lot about the material and size, but a local pro who walks the yard will always be more precise. Use our number as the range to expect before you start calling around.
How is a fence priced versus a deck?
Fences are usually priced by the foot and decks by the square foot. We’ll ask one quick question to tell which you’re after, then size it from your photo and your answers.
Which materials can you estimate?
Wood, vinyl, chain-link and metal for fences; pressure-treated wood and composite for decks. Material is the single biggest price swing, so it’s worth picking the one you want.
Is this really free?
Yes. No signup, no credit card, no spam. We only make money if you choose to connect with a local pro — and that’s up to you.
What photo works best?
A wide shot of where the fence or deck will go — or of the old one you’re replacing — works best.
