Fence Repair

Does your fence need repair? If you are looking for a fencing contractor in New Jersey, you may think you need to replace your fence. However, many common fencing issues can be fixed with simple repairs. Repairing a fence can be substantially less expensive than replacing your fence and can extend the life of your fence by years.

Here are some common issues that may lead to fence repairs:

Damaged Fence Posts

If you have a wooden fence, you will eventually have damaged fence boards and posts. Wooden backrails and pickets can rot, which loosens the area around nails. Posts, which are in contact with the ground, can also rot. You do not have to replace your whole fence just because parts of it are damaged or rotted. Instead, you can replace the damaged pieces. Even if you have had a damaged post, we can replace it with a new post and correct any leaning or sagging.

Vinyl Fence Repair

Because vinyl fence styles may be changed with the seasons, sometimes people think it is impossible to repair a vinyl fence and that replacing it is the only option. That is simply not true. Vinyl fences are configured with specific rail and post styles that can be routed in our vinyl production shop. Accordingly, we can replace broken slats, rails and posts, making your vinyl fence look like new.

Chain Link Repair

With chain link fences, one of the most common problems is a bent rail. Heavy objects can bend your rails, which makes your fence look messy and ill-kept. We can remove the bent railing and replace it with new railing. We can also replace damaged chain link fencing mesh fabric, should it get cut or damaged.

Loose Gates

Sometimes the problem is not with the fence, but with the gate. Your gate can lean or sag, come off its hinges, pieces may loosen, or need new hardware may be required. We can come out, assess what is wrong with your gate, and often fix it on the same day. If the repair is more complex, we can order parts and schedule a future repair.

Deck Repair

If you are experiencing problems with your deck, you may think it is time to replace it. However, many common decking issues can be fixed with simple repairs. Our team of deck experts is here to help with your repairs. We specialize in fixing common deck issues like loose boards, bowing, and loose rails. Whether your deck is made of wood, composite, or PVC materials, we have the skills and knowledge to make it safe and beautiful once again.

Here are some common issues that may lead to deck repairs:

Loose Deck Boards

One of the most common decking problems we see is loose boards. This can happen due to normal wear and tear, weather damage, or a variety of other reasons. Loose boards can be dangerous if not fixed promptly. Our team can inspect your deck and identify any loose boards, then repair or replace them as needed. We use high-quality materials to ensure that your deck is safe and sturdy.

Bowing

Bowing is a common problem we see. This occurs when the deck boards begin to bend or warp, causing an uneven surface. Bowing can be caused by a variety of factors, including moisture, age, and poor installation. Our decking experts can assess the cause of the bowing and develop a plan to repair it. This may involve replacing the deck boards, depending on the severity of the problem.

Loose Rails

Loose rails are one of the most frequent problems and they can be dangerous, as loose rails can cause people to lose their balance. Rails become loose when they detach from the posts or when the posts themselves become loose. Our team can inspect your rails and posts and determine the best course of action to fix the problem. These repairs could involve reattaching the rails or reinforcing the posts to make them more secure for your deck.
