Fence Repair: Why, When, and How
-
Repairing a fence can boost property value
Fences are highly desirable for buyers. Whether because they want a place for kids and pets to play or they’d simply like some privacy, buyers value homes with well-kept fences more than those without.
-
Fences show signs of wear before failing
Barring sudden unexpected damage, like a tree falling on the fence, most fences will show signs they need repair. Acting quickly can preserve the fence for many years.
-
You shouldn’t DIY fence repairs
Repairing a fence the right way requires skill, but it’s also back-breaking work if you do it yourself. It’s better to get a handyman to install a fence instead.
A fence can add a classic aesthetic to a house. After all, doesn’t the American dream come with a white picket fence? No matter which type of fencing your home features, it’s important to keep it in good condition. Damaged fences can collapse and cause harm to people and property, and if your fence is degrading, it might no longer serve its purpose, either.
The team at Mr. Handyman of East Greenville and Greer loves seeing our neighbors outside enjoying the beautiful weather, and to that end, we make sure that homes with fences have something strong and aesthetically pleasing. Greer fence installation and repair mostly happen in the spring and summer, but if you see a problem, it’s important to get on top of it right away! Contact us if you need repairs for your fence or if you’re thinking about adding fencing for the first time.
Fence Repair: Why, When, and How
Understanding the Basics of Fence Repair or Installation
Fences of all types are meant to last a long time, but some are more durable than others. You can extend the life of your fence by keeping it in good condition, which usually means:
- Washing off debris, pollen, or spills
- Trimming plants away from the fence to keep moisture off
- Fixing small issues before they get bigger
- Having the fence installed or repaired by professionals
However, every fence will need a little TLC from time to time. In that case, it’s important to know the difference between small issues that can be repaired and bigger problems that might necessitate replacing whole pieces or even starting over with a new fence.
When to Replace a Fence
The right time to replace a fence entirely (rather than repairing it) depends on the material from which it’s made.
- Chain link – When large portions of the metal are rusted, coming off the frame, bent, or missing
- Vinyl – When the fence becomes unstable or sways, the material becomes brittle, or the fence has holes or missing pieces
- Wood – When multiple planks are rotten, bowing, cracking, or separating
- Bamboo – When pieces of bamboo come off or the material becomes moist, collapsed, or bent
Mr. Handyman can replace your fence for you, but if you’re looking at full replacement solely because of damage, let us stop by to assess the fence! We may be able to repair it instead.
Fence Repair Methods
Because fences come in so many forms, repairing them requires extensive knowledge. First, we’ll visit your property and look at the extent of the damage. We’ll do a thorough walkthrough to make sure we don’t miss any areas, then we’ll make a plan to tackle the damage. It’s important to us that we make the entire process easy, honest, and quick, so we’ll provide you with a transparent quote and get right to work.
Then, depending on the issues your fence is facing, we might need to do multiple tasks, such as:
- Breaking up concrete post footers
- Digging post holes
- Securing new posts in place
- Removing chain link sections and adding new links
- Resetting posts
- Chiseling out rotted wood
- Adding wood filler and stabilizers
- Sanding
- Patching holes using epoxy
Your fence is just as unique as your property, so we’ll create a custom strategy that works for you!
