Is $13,668 to replace a 263 linear foot cedar privacy fence with upgrades and staining a fair price?

Project Details

I am looking to replace my fence and this is the first quote I've received. I'm getting another quote tomorrow. I had read that $25-35 per foot for Cedar was expected, but I wasn't sure if that was an "all-in" price. The $29 per foot for the fence itself seems good, but the total with all the extras takes it to about $13.6K. DIY is not an option for the fence installation itself due to time constraints, but I might consider doing the staining myself to save a significant portion of the cost. I am still waiting for the second estimate to come in.
