Outdoor & Yard costs

Fences, decks, driveways, trees and landscaping.

Outdoor projects are priced by length, area or the size of the job, and site conditions such as slope, soil, access and local rules can change the total. Material choice is usually the biggest lever you control.

The guides below gather published price ranges for fences, decks, driveways and other yard work, with the source for each figure. They cover what drives the price, permit questions to raise early, and what a contractor quote should spell out before work starts.
