    Steel Tape Measure
    Marking Pencil
    Hammer
    Work Gloves
    Ultra Laser Level
    Ready Mix Concrete
    Tamping Rod
    Wooden Stakes & Nylon Line


    Cheaper but Less Efficient:

    Jig Saw or Hacksaw

    Marking Pencil
    Hammer
    Work Gloves
    Standard Level
    Gravel, Crushed Stone, or Sand
    Tamping Rod
    Wooden Stakes & Thin Rope


    Now depending on the exact type of fence you are looking to construct you will fine the specific materials will vary from project to project. Wooden fences will require wooden posts and boards in addition to a nails, wood chisel, preservative, paint, and stain. Aluminum fence will require aluminum posts, aluminum fabric, wire ties, aluminum post caps, and wire cutters.
    Many steel and vinyl fences are likely to come pre-assembled for the most part and will only require you to dig and set the fence posts. In addition, you will need to properly connect each segment of the fence together. Many of these fences comes with small tags with specific instructions on how exactly the fence should be connected.
    One other “tool” you may need is a building permit. Make sure to check with your town clerk to verify the need for a permit. Also, be aware of any state or local codes to that may apply to your project. Violating any laws and statues will almost guarantee you unnecessary headaches down the road. Lastly, be sure to follow all safety precautions and warnings associated with the type of fence that you are installing.
    Once you have determined the height you would like or are required to build your fence you will need to purchase materials.
