What pushes Walnut Creek-area quotes up

Slopes: stepped panels, longer posts and more cutting.
Access: no truck access to the backyard means hand-carrying posts, concrete and old boards.
Rock and roots: slow post holes; protected trees may need hand digging.
Haul-off: old fences, especially with concrete footings, take time and dump fees.
Steel posts, lattice tops, board-on-board: more material, more labor.
Gates: each one adds hardware, a heavier post and framing.
HOA approval and neighbor notice: time, not money, but they move schedules.
