How these numbers are made

Source: City of Scottsdale building permits (the City's open-data permit file up to January 2026, and the City's SPUR permit system since), with the contractor named on each permit. The window is October 2023 through September 2026; a permit filed after that isn't here yet.

Usual is the middle permit: half were filed for less, half for more. Only permits with a filed value count; a value of $0 or none is left out.

The spread is approximate: we keep seven points of each firm's own range of filed values, not every permit, and pool them.

Common questions

  • How many quotes should I get for a fence & wall job in Scottsdale?At least three. In the permit record the middle half of Scottsdale fence & wall firms usually file between $3,324 and $10,670 a job, so two ordinary firms can sit 3.2 times apart and both be normal for Scottsdale. A third quote shows which one is the outlier. Filed values are what contractors wrote on permits, not quotes, so use them to judge the spread, not to price your own job.
  • What range is normal for fence & wall jobs in Scottsdale?Half of permits were filed between $3,000 and $18,100; 8 in 10 between $1,100 and $28,400. These are approximate, pooled from each firm's own spread.
  • How much do fence companies charge in Scottsdale?The usual fence & wall job is filed at $7,831; the middle half of firms usually file between $3,324 and $10,670. The 10 firms with the most permits in the last 12 months usually file $7,257, less than the usual. See every firm's usual job →
  • Why is this different from the per-foot prices I see online?Online prices are quoted per foot. A filed value is one number for the whole job on one permit, often many feet plus the work around them, and the Scottsdale file does not record how many each job covered, so we can't turn $7,831 into a price per foot.
  • Do bigger houses get bigger bills?In the file, yes for the firms: those working on the upper third of homes by value usually file $10,462, the lower third $5,850. That is firms, not single jobs.
  • Where does this data come from?City of Scottsdale building permits (the City's open-data permit file up to January 2026, and the City's SPUR permit system since), with the contractor named on each permit, read October 2026. How the records work in Scottsdale →
