Chain link fence installation in Bartlett, TN
A lot of Bartlett chain link is original to the house. Around Bartlett Station, Elmore Park and the older Stage Road subdivisions we are usually replacing mesh that has been stretched, rusted and pushed out of line for thirty years — and homeowners are surprised how much better a new run looks for roughly $18–$26 per foot.
$18–$26 per foot installed • Old fence torn out and hauled off • Posts driven about 40 inches • 2-year no-questions-asked workmanship warranty
What chain link costs in Bartlett
Installed chain link generally runs about $18–$26 per foot installed, using the same estimator pricing we quote from. Height and mesh gauge move you inside that range, and black vinyl-coated mesh sits above galvanized. Gates are priced separately — $300 for a single walk gate and $600 for a double drive gate — and there is a $750 minimum job charge.
Tearing out an old fence, rock, slope and tight equipment access are the site conditions that most often change a number. You can price your own yard in a few minutes rather than waiting on a callback.
Chain link options we install
Heights
Four foot for pet containment and front-yard boundaries, five foot as the common middle, six foot where you want real deterrence around a back lot or a yard that stores equipment.
Galvanized or black vinyl-coated
Galvanized is the value option and the standard on job sites. Black vinyl-coated mesh costs more per foot but visually disappears against a treeline, which is why most backyards that back onto woods choose it.
Mesh gauge and framework
Residential work is typically 11 or 11.5 gauge mesh on residential-grade framework. Commercial and job-site fence steps up to heavier mesh and heavier pipe where hardware takes daily abuse.
Top rail or top wire
Top rail gives the fence a finished line and stiffens the run, and it is what we use on nearly all residential installs. Tension wire is the utility-yard approach where budget beats looks.
Gates sized to what you own
Walk gates and double drive gates are built to your mower, trailer or truck rather than to a standard kit width. A welded metal gate frame is available as an upgrade.
Slats and bottom wire
Privacy slats can be woven into chain link when you want screening without paying for a solid privacy fence, and bottom tension wire keeps a dog from pushing the mesh up along the ground.
What Bartlett yards need from chain link
Bartlett lots are generous and mostly flat, which is exactly the situation chain link is built for: you can enclose the whole yard rather than fencing a rectangle around the patio and calling it done. That is why so many of the calls we take here are dog owners who want the full run of the property secured.
Replacement is the other half of the work. Where an old galvanized fence is sagging, we tear it out and haul it off as part of the job rather than leaving a pile at the curb. Homeowners on tree-lined streets almost always move to black vinyl-coated mesh on the replacement — same fence, but it stops being the first thing you notice from the deck.
Bartlett subdivisions frequently sit under HOA covenants. We provide drawings and guidance for a submittal, and approval stays in the property owner's name.
How we build it
We lay the line off your survey, set terminal and gate posts first, then work the run so it stays straight and tight rather than sagging a season later. Posts are driven approximately 40 inches into the soil, and gate posts get the extra attention because they are what carries the daily abuse.
Old fence removal and haul-off is quoted with the job, a welded metal gate frame is available as an upgrade rather than standard, and every install carries our 2-Year No-Questions-Asked Workmanship Warranty. Permits and HOA submittals are something we can guide you through and provide drawings for — approval stays in the property owner's name.
Chain link questions from Bartlett homeowners
How much does a chain link fence cost in Bartlett, TN?
Using our own estimator pricing, installed chain link generally runs about $18–$26 per foot in Bartlett. Height, mesh gauge and galvanized versus black vinyl-coated decide where you land. Gates are added on top — $300 for a single walk gate, $600 for a double drive gate — with a $750 minimum job charge.
Can you replace the old chain link fence that came with my house?
Yes, and it is a large share of our Bartlett work. We tear out the existing fence, haul it off and set new line and terminal posts rather than reusing tired steel. Removal is quoted with the job so there is no separate surprise.
Is black chain link worth it in Bartlett?
On most Bartlett streets, yes. Black vinyl-coated mesh reads as a boundary instead of as the main feature of the yard, especially where there are mature trees behind the property. Galvanized is still the right answer for utility areas and job sites.
Will chain link hold my dog?
With the right height and bottom detail, yes. Four foot handles most dogs; taller mesh helps with jumpers and bottom tension wire stops diggers pushing the mesh up. We size it to your specific dog before quoting.
What warranty comes with the fence?
Every installation is backed by our 2-Year No-Questions-Asked Workmanship Warranty. Call 662-806-7800 if you want to talk it through before you book.
