New home owner who has never had to hire a contractor before. Want to have chain link fence replaced and want to have put in white vinyl fence to match connected town home.

It is just a 40 foot length I need replaced and will need to have one gate. As I get quotes, what kind of price should I expect to pay? What’s considered fair and what’s considered a rip off?

EDIT: Thanks for all the feedback! I think I’m not in the right tax bracket to hire people to do this, so probably going to try to do it myself.

    Get multiple quotes and compare them.

    And don’t go with the cheapest one. I did that. The guy is almost done. Almost nothing about the fence meets what I would consider professional standards. I deeply regret hiring this guy.
