Our Service
Repair When Your Fence Still Has Life Left
If the main structure of your fence is still solid, a focused repair can restore function and appearance for a fraction of the cost of a full replacement. The key is identifying the actual failure — not just swapping out whatever is easy to reach.
We inspect the posts, rails, pickets, panels, hinges, latches, and gate alignment before recommending anything. If a repair will genuinely extend the life of your fence, we will tell you. If replacement is the smarter long-term move, we will be honest about that too.
What You Get
Built Right, Every Time
Leaning Posts
We reset or replace leaning and heaved posts with fresh concrete footings so the fence line stands straight again.
Broken & Rotted Boards
Individual pickets, rails, and panels replaced and blended to match the existing fence so the repair looks seamless.
Gate Alignment & Hardware
Sagging, dragging, or misaligned gates realigned with new hinges, latches, and bracing that stay true for years.
Panel Damage
Storm, wind, and impact damage repaired section by section — no need to tear down the entire fence.
Pet & Impact Damage
Chewed, cracked, or knocked-out boards repaired with reinforced materials built to take the abuse.
Weather & Irrigation Rot
Damaged sections near sprinklers and shaded areas replaced with rot-resistant materials to stop the cycle.
Material & Build Choices
Build details that matter
The finished look depends on more than boards. Post depth, rails, fasteners, and gate framing all affect how solid the fence feels — and how long it lasts.
Post Depth & Footings
Posts are set in concrete deep enough to keep the fence line straight through the seasons — not just on install day.
Rail & Board Alignment
Even spacing and true lines are what separate a fence that looks custom from one that looks rushed.
Gate Framing
Gates are the hardest-working part of any fence. We frame them to stay square and swing true for years.
Sun Exposure
We factor in how much sun your fence line gets, since it affects material choice, fading, and how often you reseal.
Irrigation Overspray
Sprinklers hitting a fence every day is a common cause of rot. We plan the layout around it before anything is set.
Material & Finish
From natural cedar and redwood to low-maintenance vinyl, we match the material to your privacy, budget, and upkeep goals.
Sequence
The work moves in a clear order
Measure the fence line and confirm the style
We walk the property, take measurements, and lock in material, height, and layout before anything is ordered.
Remove old material when needed
If you are replacing a fence, we handle demo, haul-off, and disposal so you start with a clean slate.
Set posts, build the fence, hang gates, clean up
Posts go in concrete, panels go up square, gates get hung and tested, and we leave the yard spotless.
Repair or Replace
Did Wind Blow Your Fence Over? Here's What That Really Means
Wind rarely breaks a strong fence — it exposes a weak one. A post rotted at the soil line, or a footing that heaved years ago, will torque and give way in a storm. So when a section goes down, the real question is not what knocked it over. It is whether the weakness is one section, or the whole run.
Repair it if…
- It is one or two sections that came down
- The remaining posts are still solid and roughly plumb
- Rot is in the boards, not the rails or framing
- The fence line is still straight overall
Replace it if…
- Several posts are loose, leaning, or moving
- Wind took out more than a single section
- Rot has reached the rails and framing, not just the pickets
- You keep repairing the same spots over and over
- Repair quotes are creeping toward half the cost of a new fence
If the damage is parts, repair it. If the fence is failing as a system — loose posts, rotted framing, repeated blowovers — a patch only delays the inevitable.
