Small Changes, Big Results

Straighten it up. Tighten it up.

Fence repairs for posts, gates, rails, and problem sections

Most fence problems start small. A post leans, a rail loosens up, a gate starts dragging, or the hardware stops holding the way it should. Then weather, moisture, and movement make the section worse over time.

We handle fence and gate repairs across the Pocono Mountains and Lehigh Valley with a small-job focus. If the goal is to straighten it up, get the gate working again, or keep one section from getting worse, that is usually a good fit for what we do.

  • Straighten leaning posts and stabilize loose sections
  • Repair gates with sagging, dragging, latch, or alignment problems
  • Replace hinges, latches, handles, and other hardware

Posts, rails, panels, gates, wire, and storm damage

Fence repairs usually come down to a few common trouble spots: posts near the ground line, loose rails or panels, gates that sag, and hardware that has worn out or pulled loose. We keep the work targeted and focus on the parts that actually need attention.

  • Wood fences including pressure-treated, cedar, split rail, and privacy fencing
  • Gate repairs including alignment, sag correction, hinge replacement, latch replacement, and hardware upgrades
  • Straighten posts and re-secure loose rails, panels, and pickets
  • Chicken wire install or replacement for pets, gardens, and small containment needs
  • Deer fencing installs and repairs for yard and garden protection
  • Aluminum fences and gates including adjustments, repairs, and hardware replacement
Install limit: We mainly focus on repairs and upgrades. New fence installs are usually limited to smaller runs, about 40 feet or less, depending on layout, access, and digging conditions.

Repair Options

Some fence repairs are simple, like replacing hardware or reattaching a loose rail. Other jobs may involve resetting a post or rebuilding a small section. We try to keep the repair practical for the condition of the fence and the size of the job.

  • Straighten and stabilize: reduce lean, tighten movement, and reinforce weak areas
  • Hardware replacement: hinges, latches, drop rods, handles, and fasteners
  • Gate repairs: fix sagging, dragging, poor closure, and rebuild smaller sections when needed
  • Wire add-ons: chicken wire for pets and gardens, deer fencing for protection

Time & Scheduling

Most fence repairs can be looked at through photos first. Smaller repairs may be finished in one visit. Larger repair lists or post work may take longer depending on digging conditions and materials.

Typical timeline: small repairs often take 2–6 hours. Multi-area repairs or post resets can take 1–2 days depending on digging conditions and materials.

Fence Repair Questions

Quick answers homeowners ask before scheduling.

Can you fix a leaning fence or wobbly section without replacing everything?

Yes. Many fence issues can be handled with targeted repairs like straightening posts, reattaching rails or panels, reinforcing weak points, and replacing hardware.
