St Cloud Fences: Trusted Fence Installation & Repair Company for Residential & Commercial Property

Why Spring Hill Homeowners & Businesses Choose Us

St. Cloud Fences installs and repairs residential and commercial fences throughout St. Cloud and Osceola County. As a locally owned, family-operated company, we started in 2003 and bring 20+ years of fencing experience, completing 800+ projects, from backyard privacy fences and driveway gates to commercial perimeter fencing. We install and repair vinyl, wood, aluminum, chain link, pool safety, privacy, and security fencing on properties of all sizes. A fence considered good in St. Cloud must do more than look attractive on the day it is installed. Florida's heat, heavy rainfall, sandy soil, drainage, strong storms, and constant humidity all affect how a fence performs over time. When planning post depth, concrete footings, gate support, drainage, and material choices, we account for those conditions. Customers receive clear recommendations, straightforward pricing, reliable scheduling, and a free on-site fence estimate before any work begins.

Our Mission

The idea behind St. Cloud Fences was simple: offer our customers the same advice we would give our own family. This means explaining the options, recommending what fits your property, and never pushing a more expensive fence just because we can. If you need extra privacy, a safer area for your pool, space for your dogs to run around, or improved security around your business, our aim is to ensure you end up with a fence that works well, looks suitable, and feels like good value for your money.

Recent Project: 268 Ft Privacy Fence With 12-Ft Drive Gate

A homeowner in St. Cloud wanted to enclose more of their backyard for privacy and a secure area for their pets, while still allowing access for a boat and lawn equipment. The work involved installing 268 linear feet of 6-foot vinyl privacy fencing, one 4-foot walk gate, and a 12-foot double drive gate. We modified the fence line to accommodate a drainage swale, and we strengthened the larger gate posts for the wider opening. We completed the installation in three working days, and the total project cost was $13,460, including materials, gates, installation, removal of the old fence, and cleanup. We received a 5-star rating for our service.

Residential Fence Installation in St Cloud, FL

We install wood, vinyl, aluminum, wrought iron, chain link, composite, and PVC fencing in St. Cloud and Osceola County, selecting each material based on its durability in Florida's heat, humidity, and sandy soil. For each project, we handle permits, review HOA specifications, and set posts in concrete to a depth appropriate for local ground conditions.

Wood Fence Installation

Many St. Cloud homeowners choose wood fences for privacy, have a natural look and are reasonably priced up front. Although we generally use pressure-treated pine, we can also use cedar if you prefer greater stability and a finer grain. The cost of most wooden fences varies from $25 to $45 per linear foot, the amount depending on both the height and the style. Among the more popular choices are the dog-ear, flat-top, and shadowbox styles. The posts are set in concrete and hot-dip galvanised or stainless steel fittings are used to help avoid rust in Florida's humid climate. To keep your fence in good condition, plan to seal or stain it every two or three years.

Vinyl & PVC Fence Installation

For homeowners in St. Cloud who want privacy, a tidy appearance, and a reliable fence that can cope with Florida's heat and humidity, vinyl and PVC fences are an excellent low-maintenance option. To help prevent warping, yellowing, and brittleness, we use UV-stabilised materials with impact modifiers, reinforced gate posts, and thicker wall sections. Popular types include 6-foot privacy fences, 3- to 4-foot picket fences, 2- and 3-rail ranch fences, semi-privacy panels, and pool enclosures with self-latching gates. Most vinyl privacy fences cost about $50 to $70 per linear foot installed, depending on height, style, and post spacing. You can choose from a range of colors, including white, tan, khaki, gray, and woodgrain. Maintenance generally involves only occasional washing. Vinyl and PVC fences are especially common in HOA communities because regulations often limit fence height, color, and style.

Metal Fence Installation

Installing a metal fence gives St. Cloud residents durable solutions for privacy, acreage coverage, and fencing off high-traffic areas. We provide steel privacy panels, corrugated steel fencing, and galvanized post-and-rail systems, along with mesh or wire infill. Flat-panel and louvered steel offer good screening, and corrugated metal suits modern styles. On larger properties located east of St. Cloud, galvanized frames can be combined with wire or mesh fencing. Match the panel gauge and coating to the specific use, and use more substantial materials around driveways, play areas, and other areas subject to impact.

Chain Link Fence Installation

Installing a chain-link fence is one of the most cost-effective ways to enclose yards, pastures, pet areas, and the outer boundaries of large properties, with costs usually ranging from $20 to $35 per linear foot once installed. We provide residential chain link fencing in 11 and 11.5 gauge with a 2-inch mesh, as well as heavier 9-gauge fencing for kennels and commercial properties. For improved corrosion resistance, galvanized and black, green, or brown vinyl-coated varieties are available. Adding privacy slats can increase screening to about 75 to 90%.

Aluminum Fence Installation

Homeowners in St. Cloud can choose ornamental aluminum fencing, a rust-resistant, low-maintenance option with decorative features such as finials, rings, puppy pickets, and spear-top designs. We provide both 2-rail and 3-rail systems, and 3-rail panels are typically used for fences that are 5 or 6 feet high to increase stiffness. Available powder-coated finishes include black, bronze, white, and sand, with black most commonly selected for residential use. Aluminum panels designed to be racked conform to slopes and drainage swales without stepping up, and many manufacturers provide a limited lifetime warranty covering both the finish and the structure.

Driveway Gate Installation

The installation of a driveway gate needs to take into account the weight of the gate, the width of the opening, the slope, the fact that it will be used repeatedly, and any automation features. We provide single swing gates (10 to 12 feet), double swing gates (12 to 20 feet), and cantilever slide gates (12 to 24 feet) for homes and properties in St. Cloud. For automation, customers can choose keypads, remotes, vehicle loops, smartphone access, safety photo eyes, and a manual release option. The gate posts sit in deeper, larger concrete footings, and the frames are made of welded steel or reinforced aluminum to prevent sagging over wider openings.

Your Fence Installation Company in St Cloud

Our fence installation process meets St. Cloud and Osceola County permitting requirements, including required utility locates, and complies with Florida's wind-load standards. We offer wood, vinyl, PVC, aluminum, chain link, and metal fencing to suit different budgets and property needs, selecting materials and post systems that account for Florida's heat, humidity, sandy soil, drainage, and storm exposure.

Commercial Fence Installation in St Cloud, FL

We install commercial-grade fencing across St. Cloud and Osceola County for warehouses, contractor yards, retail centers, utility sites, and construction projects. Our commercial work includes chain-link and welded steel security barriers, barbed wire and anti-climb tops, and powered gate systems with keypads, card readers, and safety sensors.

Commercial Barbed Wire Fence Installation

Barbed wire fencing adds about 12 inches of security height to commercial chain-link fencing in St. Cloud and Osceola County. We install 3- and 6-strand systems on vertical, 45-degree, or V-shaped extension arms for commercial, industrial, and agricultural properties. Standalone ranch and pasture fencing is also available using treated wood or T-posts with 12½-gauge barbed wire. Because local zoning and setbacks may restrict barbed wire placement and minimum fence height, we verify City of St. Cloud or Osceola County requirements before installation.

Commercial Anti Climb Fence Installation

Anti-climb fencing offers a high level of security for the perimeter of commercial and industrial sites in St. Cloud. Our fencing consists of 358 welded mesh with 3" by 0.5" openings, made from 8-gauge wire, forming a solid barrier that resists climbing, cutting, and deformation better than ordinary chain link. It is typically used at substations, telecommunication sites, storage yards, and other secure facilities. Other available options are rotating spike toppers, angled extension arms, and palisade steel fencing, and commercial fence heights are usually between 8 and 10 feet.

Commercial Sliding Gate Installation

Commercial sliding gates are ideal for St. Cloud properties with narrow driveways, sloped entries, or limited swing clearance. We install roller-track and cantilever gate systems for commercial access. Roller gates use V-groove wheels on a ground track and typically cost less, while cantilever gates operate without ground contact, making them better for uneven surfaces and debris-prone areas. Cantilever systems require about 50% additional backspace beyond the clear opening, so a 20-foot driveway needs roughly 30 feet of total run.

Commercial Swing Gate Installation

Commercial swing gates are suitable for use on properties in St. Cloud, provided that there is sufficient clearance and the ground is level. We install single-door gates up to a height of 16 feet and dual-door swing gates for larger openings, employing welded steel or aluminum frames, strong hinges, and fence panels that match the gate. Before installation, we examine the ground slope, the clearance required by the road right-of-way, and the wind load for both solid and slatted gates. We place the hinge posts in concrete footings that are generally 36 inches or deeper to support the gate's extra weight and repeated movement.

Construction Site Fence Installation

We provide temporary construction fencing in St. Cloud, Harmony, Narcoossee, and Osceola County to secure job sites, support security, and to support phased construction projects. For standard systems, we use 6' × 12' fence panels, which are placed on weighted bases or driven posts according to the site conditions and the length of the project. Available options are privacy mesh or windscreen mesh, site signage, rolling equipment gates, and silt fence. We handle delivery, installation, relocation, and removal of the fencing, and for multi-phase construction projects, we can offer both monthly rental rates and longer-term pricing.

Warehouse Security Fence Installation

The warehouse fencing we provide in St. Cloud secures truck courts, loading areas, equipment yards, and inventory while allowing efficient access. For commercial properties and distribution centers, we fit chain-link perimeter fencing, cantilever slide gates, bollards, vinyl-coated fabric, and privacy slats. Inside the warehouses, we also construct welded wire tool cribs, storage cages, and machine-guarding partitions equipped with hinged or sliding access doors.

Our fence installation process meets St. Cloud and Osceola County permitting requirements, including required utility locates, and complies with Florida's wind-load standards. We provide durable fencing made from wood, vinyl, PVC, aluminum, chain link, and metal, catering to various budgets and property requirements, and the materials and post systems we choose are suitable for the conditions found in Florida, such as heat, humidity, sandy soil, drainage, and exposure to storms.


Specialty Fence Repair and Replacement in St Cloud, FL

Florida weather is harsh on fences because sandy soil tends to shift; summer thunderstorms and year-round high humidity mean most fences in Osceola County need some repair within their first ten years. We provide services ranging from fixing one badly rotted post to replacing entire sections for fences made of wood, vinyl, chain link, and aluminum.

Wood Fence Repair

Repairing a wooden fence in St. Cloud usually involves fixing rotted posts, warped pickets, loose fasteners, and sagging 2x4 rails that are part of pressure-treated pine fencing. We replace damaged pickets and rails to match the current profile, strengthen weak parts, and allow you to restain or seal the fence for extra moisture protection. In the case of fences that are 12 years old or more, or those that are about 60% deteriorated, we compare the costs of repair and replacement so that you can decide on the better long-term option.

Vinyl Fence Repair

In St. Cloud, vinyl fence repairs usually deal with cracked panels, damaged rails, posts that have shifted, loose caps, and brittle PVC resulting from impact, UV exposure, and sandy soil. Because most vinyl fencing is modular, you can often replace just one panel or rail without disturbing the entire fence line. We also straighten any leaning posts and, when replacing the vinyl, try to match the new vinyl as closely as possible in profile, size, and color, and we'll let you know in advance if an exact match is no longer available.

Chain Link Fence Repair

Chain-link fence repairs in St. Cloud usually address sagging mesh, bent top rails, rusted posts, torn fabric, and loose fittings on residential, commercial, and utility fencing. We re-stretch and re-tension the mesh, replace damaged rail sections and associated hardware, install new posts when corrosion has weakened the base, and splice or replace torn fabric as needed. In the case of vinyl-coated chain link fences, the same procedure is followed and, whenever possible, color-matched materials are used.

Leaning Fence Repair

In St. Cloud, when carrying out fence repairs, the footing is generally dealt with before the panel. Common causes of leaning include insufficient post depth, cracked concrete, soil erosion, tree roots, and wind load. To fix this, we dig out the faulty posts and reseat them in new concrete footings, and where necessary, we insert additional posts over longer sections to increase stability. In cases where the movement is due to roots or drainage problems, we sort out the root cause so that the fence will no longer keep leaning.

Storm Damaged Fence Repair

In St. Cloud, we repair storm-damaged fences by restoring pool barriers, straightening leaning sections, and replacing broken posts, panels, and fittings affected by hurricanes, tropical storms, and severe summer storms. To assist with insurance claims, we take photographs of the damage, give itemized estimates, put up temporary barrier fencing if necessary, and carry out the repair or replacement only for the sections that have been damaged. Additionally, we check for any hidden damage to the posts and footings below ground level to help prevent further failure during future storms.

Fence Post Replacement

In St. Cloud, fence post replacements usually involve fixing rotted wooden posts, rusted metal posts, and cracked vinyl posts. We remove the damaged post and old concrete footing, then set the new post at the correct depth for the fence height and soil conditions. For a 6-foot privacy fence, the posts are generally set about 24 to 30 inches deep, and the concrete footings are sized to withstand the wind load. We either replace individual posts or entire sections, and in the case of corner and gate posts, which carry the most stress, we add extra reinforcement.

Why We're the Best Fence Installation Company in St Cloud, FL

We do all the work ourselves, taking our crews through each stage from the initial visit to the final gate adjustment, and we never pass any part of it to a subcontractor. The materials we stock- vinyl, aluminum, wood, and chain link—are the ones Osceola County homeowners and housing associations actually approve.

What Does Our Expert Fence Installation

Process Involve in St Cloud, FL?

The process begins with a visit to the property, during which we measure the property boundary, discuss the setbacks, and then provide a written quotation based on the linear feet.

From there, our process moves through five stages:

Permitting: We pull the required St. Cloud or Osceola County permits and submit the site plan.

Utility Locates: We call 811 and wait the full 48-hour notice period before digging.

Layout: Post positions are strung and marked, typically at 6 to 8 foot spacing depending on material.

Setting Posts: Holes are dug below the frost-free depth standard used locally and set in concrete.

Panel & Installation: Rails, pickets, and hardware go on after posts cure.

Before we leave, we walk the fence line with you, check that every gate swings and latches correctly, and clean up all debris and excess material.

Which Materials Do We Provide for Fence Installation

in St Cloud, FL?

We install four fence types, each suited to different priorities:

Material
Common Uses
Notes
Pressure-treated Wood

Backyard privacy, ranch-style properties

Pressure-treated pine or cedar; can be stained to match

Vinyl (PVC)

Privacy fencing, HOA neighborhoods

No painting or staining; handles heat and humidity well

Aluminum

Pool enclosures, front yards

Meets Florida pool barrier codes; won't rust

Chain Link

Pet areas, larger lots, commercial sites

Galvanized or black vinyl-coated options

Heights typically range from 4 feet for decorative front-yard fencing to 6 feet for backyard privacy. We also build matching gates, including walk gates and double-drive gates wide enough for mowers, trailers, or vehicle access.

Planning & Timeline

In St. Cloud, most residential fence installations go from the initial phone call to completion within two to five weeks, with much of that time spent obtaining permits and waiting for materials to become available. The following section outlines each stage so that you will know what to expect before, during, and after the day of installation.

How Long Do Fences Take?


Actual installation time depends on linear footage, material, and terrain. Here is what we typically see on Osceola County properties:

Project Size
Typical Install Time
150 ft Vinyl Privacy Fence

1–2 days

200 ft Aluminum Pool Fence

1–2 days

250 ft Chain Link

1 day

300+ ft Wood Privacy

2–3 days

Commercial or acreage runs

3–5+ days

Concrete footings need time to set. On vinyl and aluminum jobs we often set posts one day and hang panels the next, which produces a straighter line and a more stable fence. Rain delays are common from June through September. We build a buffer into every schedule during the wet season.

Fence Installation Timeline

Here is how a typical project breaks down from start to finish:

Timeline
Days 1-3
Days 3-10
Day 7-21
Day 5-7
Install Week
Scope

Site visit, measurements, and a written estimate covering materials, gates, and permit fees.

Contract signed, materials ordered, HOA submittal prepared

Permit submitted to Osceola County or City of St. Cloud permit review. Review times vary, and HOA approval may follow a separate timeline.

Before installation, Sunshine 811 marks underground utilities. Allow two full business days; markings valid for 30 days.

Layout confirmation, post setting, then panel installation.

HOA architectural review is frequently the longest single step, sometimes running 30 days on its own. We recommend submitting your HOA application the same week you sign, and we supply the drawings and material specs that most boards require.

Fence Process in St Cloud, FL

We keep the process the same for every job so you always know what comes next

Consultation

We walk the property with you, discuss height, material, gate placement, and any drainage or slope issues.

Survey & Estimate

we work from your recorded plat or survey to keep the fence inside your boundary lines. Once complete, you receive an itemized quote. Nothing is charged until you approve it.

Documentation & Permitting

We review your survey and HOA requirements, then prepare and submit the permit with the proposed fence line.

Utility Locate & Scheduling

Utilities are marked; we confirm your install date.

Installation & Cleanup

Old fence removal and haul-away, if needed, then new construction.

Walk Through

We inspect gate swing, latch operation, and post alignment with you before closing out the job.

Measuring Your Space for a Fence

Accurate fence measurements help you avoid running short on materials, layout problems, and property-line disputes. We measure the entire perimeter in linear feet, take into consideration any existing structures, and record the position of the corner and end posts, as well as the number and width of gates, the direction in which they swing, the slope, the drainage arrangements, and any obstacles such as A/C pads, irrigation lines, septic systems, tree roots, and swales. Typical access points are 4-ft walk gates and 10 to 12 ft double-drive gates, and grade changes determine whether the panels are stepped or racked.

When installing a pool fence, we check on-site all barrier dimensions, including the minimum height of 48 inches, the maximum opening size of 4 inches, and the requirement for self-closing and self-latching gates, which are required for pool fencing that complies with Florida regulations.

Layout decisions made early prevent expensive corrections later.

Fence Layout and Planning

When installing a fence in St. Cloud, you must plan carefully for setbacks, sight triangles on corner lots, utility locations, easements, drainage, and rules for pool barriers. Front-yard fences are usually limited to about 4 feet, while rear and side-yard fences are generally allowed to be up to 6 feet. Fencing around a pool must comply with Florida safety regulations, which require a minimum barrier height of 48 inches and self-closing, self-latching gates.

We normally set fence posts about 6 to 8 feet apart, allowing for corners, gates, changes in ground level, septic areas, irrigation lines, and drainage easements. When planning gate placement, we consider real access needs such as driveways, air conditioning units, trash storage areas, and the wider openings needed for riding mowers or other machinery. Before you begin digging, mark the proposed fence line with stakes and string, so you have one final chance to make any necessary adjustments.

Cost & Budget


The price of fencing in Osceola County varies by material type, fence height, length (in linear feet), and site conditions such as sandy soil or sloped land. The following section explains current rates, shows where the money goes, and explains how to plan a budget that works.

Fence Pricing Guide

Fencing is priced by the linear foot, and that figure includes materials, posts, concrete, hardware, and labor.

Here are typical installed ranges we see across Osceola County:

Materials
Cost Per Linear Foot
Common Height
Chain link (Galvanized)

$18 - $35

4-6 Ft

Wood (Pressure-treated Pine)

$28 - $48

6-8 Ft

Vinyl (PVC privacy)

$45- $70

4-6 Ft

Aluminum (Ornamental)

$35 - $60

6-4 Ft

Ornamental Iron

$60- $90

4-6 Ft

Prices shift with post spacing, gate count, and whether we need to demolish an existing fence. Corner lots and properties with drainage swales usually land at the higher end of each range.

How Much Do Fences Cost?

For a typical St. Cloud quarter-acre lot, you are fencing roughly 180 to 220 linear feet.

Using that range, here is what homeowners commonly spend:

01

Chain link, 4 ft around a 200 ft perimeter:

Roughly $3,600 – $6,000

02

Wood privacy, 6 ft around 200 ft perimeter:

Roughly $5,600 – $9,000

03

Vinyl privacy, 6 ft around 200 ft perimeter:

Roughly $10,000 – $14,000

04

Aluminum pool enclosure, 150 ft perimeter:

Roughly $6,750 – $9,750

Gates carry their own line item. A 4-foot walk gate runs $250 to $500, while a 10- or 12-foot double drive gate ranges from $800 to $2,000 depending on material and hardware. We provide free written estimates so you see the full figure before committing.

Fence Budget Planning

Start by measuring your property line footage with a wheel or long tape, then add 10 percent for gates and corners.

A few decisions carry the most weight in your final number:

01. Measure Your Fence Line

Measure the total linear footage, then add about 10% for gates, corners, and layout adjustments.

04. Adjust the Scope to Match Your Budget

Fencing only the backyard instead of the full perimeter can cut total project costs by about 30–40%.

05. Factor in Posts & Old Fence Removal

Post spacing is typically 6–8 feet; tighter spacing adds strength and cost. Old fence removal usually adds $3–$6 per linear foot.

02. Choose Your Fence Height

Moving from a 4-foot to 6-foot fence can increase material costs by roughly 25–35%

03. Select the Fence Style

Standard stockade is usually the most economical wood privacy option. Shadowbox and board-on-board fencing can use roughly 15–30% more material, increasing installed cost.

If your budget is tight, fencing only the back yard rather than the full perimeter often cuts the total by 30 to 40 percent.

Wood Fence vs Metal Fence

Wood costs less upfront. Metal costs less over time. That trade-off is the core of the decision.

Wood (pressure-treated Pine or Cedar)

  • $28 – $45 per foot installed
  • Needs sealing or staining every 2–3 years, roughly $1.50 – $3 per foot each time
  • Expect 10–15 years in Central Florida humidity


Metal (Aluminum or Galvanized Steel)

  • $45 – $90 per foot installed
  • Powder-coated aluminum needs no refinishing and won't rust
  • 25+ year service life is common

Over a 20-year window, a wood fence with regular maintenance often costs about the same as aluminum. Wood wins if you want full privacy; metal wins on longevity and pool code compliance.

Hidden Fence Costs During Fence Installation

These are the line items that surprise homeowners most often:

Permits

Osceola County requires a permit for most residential fences. Fees generally range from $75 to $200.

Survey

If property pins are missing, a boundary survey runs $350 to $700.

HOA Review

No direct cost, but review periods in Harmony, Celebration, and similar communities can add two to six weeks

Utility Marking

Sunshine 811 locates are free, but private lines like irrigation, propane, or septic laterals are not covered.

Rock & Root Removal

Limestone is common here and can slow post digging, adding labor.

Grade Changes

 Sloped runs may need racked panels or stepped sections

We list these separately on every estimate rather than folding them into a single number.

Frequently Asked Questions About Fence Installation & Repair

in St Cloud, FL

Homeowners across Osceola County ask us about materials, pricing, permits, and timelines before they commit to a project. Below are direct answers to the questions we hear most often at our St. Cloud shop.

What types of fences do you install in St. Cloud, FL?

We install vinyl, wood, aluminum, ornamental iron, and chain-link fencing for residential and commercial properties. Common requests include six-foot wood privacy fences, white vinyl privacy panels, and four-foot aluminum pool enclosures that meet Florida barrier requirements. We also build shadow box and board-on-board styles for shared fence lines. If your neighborhood has an HOA, we can match approved colors, heights, and picket styles before submitting anything for review.

How much does a new fence installation cost?

Fence installation pricing in St. Cloud depends on material, fence height, linear footage, gates, terrain, and site conditions. Typical installed costs range from $18–$30 per linear foot for 4-ft chain link, $35–$55 for 6-ft wood privacy, $40–$65 for 6-ft vinyl privacy, and $45–$70 for ornamental aluminum fencing. Sloped ground, corner posts, tree-root removal, and additional gates can increase the final cost. We provide free, written fence estimates with itemized material and labor pricing, so you know what’s included before approving your St. Cloud fence installation.

Do I need a permit to install a fence in St. Cloud, FL?

Yes. The City of St. Cloud requires a permit for new fence construction, and properties in unincorporated areas fall under Osceola County requirements. Permits typically call for a site plan or survey showing the fence location relative to property lines and easements. Pool barriers have separate code requirements covering height, gate latches, and gaps. We handle the permit application and inspection scheduling as part of our standard installation service.

How long does it take to install a fence?

Most residential yards are completed in one to three days once work begins. A standard 150 to 200 linear foot backyard usually takes a single day for demolition and post setting, with a return visit after the concrete cures. The longer part of the timeline is usually before installation. Permit review, utility locates through Sunshine 811, and material ordering typically add one to three weeks depending on the season and your HOA's approval schedule.

Which fence material is best for privacy and durability?

Vinyl offers the best combination for Central Florida conditions. It resists moisture, will not rot or attract termites, and holds its color without staining or sealing. Pressure-treated wood costs less upfront and gives you a solid privacy barrier, but it needs sealing every two to three years to slow warping and graying in the humidity. For durability without full privacy, aluminum is the strongest choice. It does not rust, handles wind well when posts are set correctly, and works for pool enclosures and front-yard boundaries. We set posts deep in concrete footings for every material, which matters in St. Cloud's sandy soil where shallow posts shift over time.

Do you provide fence repair and replacement services?

Yes. We repair storm damage, replace leaning or rotted posts, rehang sagging gates, and swap out broken pickets and panels. For older fences, we will tell you honestly whether a section repair makes financial sense or whether replacement is the better value. If more than a third of the posts are failing, replacement usually costs less over the next several years. We also handle removal and disposal of the old fence when you replace it.
