Why this invoice template matters

Fence installation involves variable terrain, property lines, and material quality that affect costs significantly. Detailed invoices show cost per linear foot, post spacing, gate hardware, and site prep like leveling or rock removal. This helps customers understand why professional installation with proper post depth costs more than DIY big-box kits. Good invoicing also documents property line verification and any utility locates performed before digging.
