Loose or leaning fence sections

We re-stabilize the section, correct alignment, and address the root cause so it stays straight instead of drifting again.

Small section rebuilds when a full replacement isn’t necessary

When the rest of the fence is still solid, we rebuild only the affected area to save cost while restoring a consistent look.

Timeline

Timeline depends on:

  • The type of fence (wood vs metal) and extent of damage

  • Number of posts and sections affected

  • Gate issues (alignment, hinges, latch points)

  • Weather and access to the repair area

  • If the fence is failing in multiple areas, replacement may be the smarter long-term option. See Fence Replacement for guidance.

Fence Repairs FAQ's

How do you fix a leaning fence?

It depends on why it’s leaning. Many times the issue is posts shifting, rotting, or loosening over time. We focus on stabilizing the structure first, then restoring alignment.

Do you match existing boards and materials?

We do our best to match what’s already there, but wood can weather and change color over time. We’ll explain what will blend well and what to expect.

Is it better to repair or replace?

If multiple posts are failing, sections are warped, or the fence is near the end of its lifespan, replacement may be the better investment. We’ll give you a straightforward recommendation.

Do you offer a workmanship guarantee?

We stand behind our workmanship. Ask during your quote and we’ll explain what’s covered for your specific repair.

Can you repair just one section of my fence?

Yes. If the rest of the fence is still solid, targeted section repairs can be a cost-effective fix. We’ll confirm what’s worth repairing versus what’s likely to fail soon.

Can you repair or rebuild a gate that sags?

Yes. Gates are one of the most common repair calls. We inspect hinges, posts, bracing, and latch points, then adjust or rebuild what’s needed so the gate swings and latches cleanly.

How long do repairs usually take?

Most repairs depend on the number of posts/sections involved and access to the area. After the walkthrough, we’ll give you a realistic timeline.

Do you repair wood and metal fences?

Yes. We repair common wood fence issues and many metal fence issues, including gates and hardware.
