Fence Repair & Replacement

Why Fence Repair Matters

A damaged fence is more than just an eyesore. It compromises your property's security, reduces your home's value, and can even create liability issues if someone gets hurt. Whether you have broken boards, leaning posts, or a gate that won't close properly, these problems only get worse over time.

Here in Cathedral City, our desert climate and occasional winds can take a toll on fences. What starts as a small crack or loose board can quickly turn into a bigger problem if you don't address it. We've seen fences that could have been saved with a simple repair end up needing complete replacement because the damage spread.

That's why we offer fast, affordable fence repair services. We'll assess the damage, give you an honest recommendation about repair versus replacement, and get your fence back to looking and working great. No pressure, no upselling. Just honest advice from local fence experts who care about your property.

Common Fence Problems We Fix

We've seen it all when it comes to fence damage. Some issues are simple fixes, while others require more extensive work. Here are the most common problems we repair:

• Broken or rotted fence boards and pickets
• Leaning or loose fence posts
• Damaged or sagging gates that don't close properly
• Missing or broken fence rails
• Rust damage on metal fences
• Storm or wind damage to any fence type
• Foundation issues causing fence instability
• Hardware failures like broken hinges or latches

Whatever the problem, we'll diagnose it quickly and fix it right. Our team carries the most common repair materials on our trucks, so we can often complete repairs the same day. For more extensive damage, we'll schedule a follow-up visit and make sure your fence is secure in the meantime.

When to Repair vs. Replace

This is the question every homeowner asks, and honestly, there's no one-size-fits-all answer. It depends on the extent of the damage, the age of your fence, and your budget. Here's how we think about it.

If the damage is limited to one or two sections, repair almost always makes sense. You'll save money and time, and your fence will be good as new. But if more than 30% of your fence is damaged, or if it's already 15-20 years old, replacement might be the smarter investment. You'll get a warranty, better materials, and peace of mind for years to come.

We'll walk you through the options and show you exactly what each choice means for your property and wallet. Want to explore professional fence installation for a complete upgrade? We can handle that too. Or if you're considering switching to a different material, check out our vinyl fence options that never need painting or staining.
