Fence Repair & Replacement

Why Fence Repair Matters

Your fence does more than mark property lines. It keeps your family safe, your pets contained, and your home private. When sections start sagging, boards crack, or posts lean, those problems only get worse over time. What starts as a minor issue can turn into a complete fence failure if you wait too long.

We help Novato homeowners catch these problems early and fix them right. Most repairs take just a few hours, and you will save thousands compared to full replacement. Our team has worked on hundreds of fences across Marin County, and we know exactly how to spot damage before it becomes a bigger headache.

Common Fence Problems We Fix

Every fence faces wear and tear. Here in Novato, the combination of coastal moisture and sun exposure puts extra stress on wood, vinyl, and metal materials. We have seen it all, and we can fix it all.

• Leaning or rotted posts: The most common problem. We dig out damaged posts and install new ones with proper concrete footings.
• Broken or missing boards: We match your existing style and replace damaged sections so repairs blend in perfectly.
• Loose or broken gates: Sagging gates are frustrating. We repair hinges, replace hardware, and adjust alignment.
• Storm damage: High winds and falling branches can cause serious damage. We provide fast emergency repairs.
• Rust and corrosion: Metal fences need attention too. We repair chain-link fencing and aluminum panels damaged by rust.
• Faded or peeling finishes: Your fence might be structurally sound but look terrible. We refinish, stain, and paint to restore curb appeal.

Repair vs. Replacement: How to Decide

Not every fence needs a full replacement. If less than 30% of your fence is damaged, repairs usually make more sense. We give you an honest assessment during our free inspection. If your fence is over 15 years old and has widespread rot or structural issues, replacement might be the better long-term investment.

When you call us, we walk your entire property line and identify every problem area. We explain what can be repaired, what needs replacement, and give you options at different price points. You will never feel pressured to spend more than necessary. Our goal is to help you make the best decision for your home and budget.

Our Repair Process

Here is how it works. First, we schedule a free on-site inspection at your convenience. We measure the damage, check post stability, and look for hidden problems like underground rot or termite damage. Then we give you a detailed written estimate that breaks down materials and labor.

Once you approve the work, we order materials and schedule your repair within 3 to 5 business days. Most repairs are completed in one day. We haul away all debris, clean up thoroughly, and walk you through the finished work to make sure you are happy. Every repair comes with a one-year workmanship warranty. If something goes wrong with our work, we come back and fix it at no charge.

Our crews work with wood fence repairs, vinyl panel replacement, metal fence welding, and everything in between. We carry insurance and pull permits when required by local codes.
