You need wood fence repair service when your fence starts falling apart. Not next month. Not when it’s convenient. When damage happens.
Call 832-688-4412 for wood fence repair service in Southeast Houston.
Southeast Houston weather beats the hell out of wood fences. Gulf moisture, sudden storms, blazing sun. Your fence takes all of it.
Most homeowners wait too long to call for wood fence repair service. They see a loose board here, a sagging section there, and think it’ll hold up another season. Wrong.
Small problems become expensive replacements when you ignore them.
We’ve been providing wood fence repair service in Dickinson and Southeast Houston for years. We know what happens to wood fences here. More importantly, we know how to fix them properly.
Loose or missing pickets. Obvious sign. But here’s what most people miss.
Posts leaning even slightly. That’s a foundation problem. Gets worse fast.
Gates that don’t latch properly or drag on the ground. Hardware failure or frame warping.
Soft spots in the wood. Touch your fence posts and rails. Soft wood means rot. Rot spreads.
Gaps appearing between boards where there weren’t gaps before. Wood shrinkage or structural settling.
Staining or discoloration that won’t clean off. Often indicates water damage or pest issues.
Don’t wait until sections start falling down. That’s when wood fence repair service becomes wood fence replacement service. Costs a lot more.
We don’t just nail a board back on and call it fixed. Real wood fence repair service starts with figuring out why the damage happened.
Post rotting at ground level? We dig it out, check the surrounding posts, replace with proper pressure-treated lumber, and reset with concrete.
Pickets warping or splitting? We look at spacing, drainage, and wood quality. Sometimes it’s installation problems. Sometimes it’s material problems.
Gate sagging? We check the hinges, the frame, and the post it’s attached to. Often the post itself needs reinforcement.
Rails pulling away from posts? We examine the fasteners, the wood condition, and the original installation method.
Proper wood fence repair service fixes the cause, not just the symptom.
Cedar fence repair. Cedar is naturally rot-resistant but still needs proper maintenance. When cedar fails, it’s usually because water got trapped somewhere.
Pressure-treated pine repair. Most common fencing material in Southeast Houston. When pressure-treated wood fails, it’s often at connection points or ground level.
We match existing materials when possible. Sometimes that means hunting down specific lumber sizes or grades.
Sometimes we recommend upgrading to better materials during repair. Especially if the original installation used substandard lumber.
Picket fence repair. Classic look, common problems. Pickets split, posts lean, gates sag. We handle all of it.
Privacy fence repair. Bigger panels, different stresses. Wind load is the main enemy. We reinforce properly.
Split rail fence repair. Different construction, different repair methods. Posts usually fail first.
Decorative wood fence repair. Fancy cuts and designs need specialty work. We can match existing patterns.
Each fence type has specific failure patterns. Experience matters for proper wood fence repair service.
Business properties need wood fence repair service that doesn’t interfere with operations. We work around your schedule.
Commercial fences get more abuse. Delivery trucks, customer traffic, and weather exposure. Repairs need to be stronger than residential work.
We understand liability concerns. Commercial wood fence repair service includes proper permits when needed and follows local codes.
Security is often a factor. We can upgrade security features during repair work.
Gates take more stress than fence sections. They swing, they carry weight, and they get slammed.
Hinge problems. Usually fixable if caught early. Wait too long and you need new posts.
Latch problems. Hardware wears out. We upgrade to better hardware during repairs.
Frame problems. Gates rack and sag. Sometimes we can square them up. Sometimes we need to rebuild.
Gate opener repair for automatic gates. Different skill set. We handle both mechanical and electrical issues.
We actually diagnose problems instead of guessing. Saves you money on unnecessary work.
We explain what went wrong and how to prevent it from happening again. Education helps you maintain your fence better.
Quality materials. We don’t fix your fence with junk lumber that’ll fail in six months.
Proper techniques. We know how wood fences are supposed to be built. Most repair problems come from poor original installation.
Fair pricing. We charge for what needs to be done, not what we want to sell you.
Minor repairs cost less than major reconstruction. Obvious, but people ignore small problems until they become big expenses.
Post replacement costs more than picket replacement. Foundation problems are always more expensive.
Gate repairs often cost more per linear foot than fence repairs. More complex construction, more expensive hardware.
Emergency wood fence repair service costs more than scheduled repairs. Plan ahead when possible.
Get multiple estimates for major repairs. But understand that the cheapest bid often means the cheapest work.
Simple picket replacement? You might handle that yourself if you have basic tools and skills.
Post replacement? Probably not a DIY job unless you really know what you’re doing. Post depth, concrete mixing, alignment. Easy to mess up.
Gate repair? Definitely not DIY unless you understand weight distribution and hardware requirements.
Structural repairs? Call professionals. Your fence’s stability affects your neighbors’ property too.
Clean your fence annually. Remove dirt, mildew, and plant growth. Use appropriate cleaners for your wood type.
Stain or seal according to manufacturer recommendations. Usually every 2-3 years in the Southeast Houston climate.
Trim vegetation away from fence. Plants hold moisture and create pest problems.
Check and tighten hardware annually. Loose screws and bolts cause bigger problems over time.
Address drainage issues. Standing water kills wood fences faster than anything else.
Waiting too long to call. Small problems become big expenses.
Hiring based on price alone. Cheap repairs usually fail quickly.
Not addressing underlying causes. Fixing symptoms without fixing problems wastes money.
Mixing incompatible materials. Different wood types expand and contract differently.
Ignoring local codes. Some repairs require permits. Violations cause problems later.
Wood fence repair service saves money when done right and done promptly. Ignore problems and you’ll end up replacing instead of repairing.
We provide honest assessments of what needs repair and what can wait. We explain your options and let you decide.
Quality wood fence repair service extends the life of your fence and protects your property investment.
