What we fix
The fence repairs we handle most
Most fence repair in Virginia comes down to a handful of predictable failures. Find yours below, then send us a photo of it.
Leaning or rotted posts
We reset or replace posts that have failed at the ground line, and re-hang the panels on either side.
Sagging gates
Squaring the gate, resetting the hinge post or swapping worn hardware brings most gates right. See how to fix a sagging gate.
Broken pickets and rails
Split boards and snapped rails swap out one at a time, matched as closely as the weathered wood allows.
Storm and wind damage
A run that went over in a storm often has sound panels and failed posts, so we fix it in the ground.
Cracked vinyl panels
Vinyl cracks on impact and in cold snaps. We swap the panel and match the profile where it is still made.
Bent aluminum and chain link
We replace creased pickets and bent rails, re-stretch torn mesh and splice top rails. See our aluminum fence repair guide.
Repair or replace?
Fence repair or replacement? You get a straight answer first
Pickets, panels, rails and hardware are the cheap parts of a fence. Posts are the expensive part. That is why fence repair is cheaper than replacement until the posts start failing.
Repair usually wins when
- Two or three sections are damaged out of a long run
- The posts are sound and only what hangs on them has failed
- The fence has years left in it
- The material can still be matched
Replacement usually wins when
- Posts have failed along the length of the fence
- Repairs keep adding up year after year
- The fence is near the end of its life
- The style or color has been discontinued
We take repair-only jobs. On an older fence, though, replacing a section or the whole run often makes more sense, and we will tell you which. If replacement is the better call, compare wood, vinyl, aluminum and chain link fences.

Repair pricing
What does fence repair cost?
Fence repair in Virginia prices per job, not per foot. Two leaning posts in open lawn and two leaning posts on a slope behind a hedge are not the same afternoon. For a national benchmark, HomeAdvisor reports these typical figures:
$611
average fence repair
$270
per replaced post
$100–$400
gate repair
$150–$300
per replaced panel
Those are national figures, not our prices. Your number depends on how many posts come out, whether old concrete has to be dug up, gate hardware, material matching and haul-away. The estimate is free.
Storm and wind damage
Fence down after a storm? Do this first
- Photograph everything before you move anything: the fallen section, the posts and the ground around them.
- Secure the opening and keep pets inside until the gap is closed.
- Send us the photos with your estimate request, and we will tell you what can be saved.
High winds usually take a fence down where a post was already soft. That is why storm repair so often starts in the ground.
Before you start
Treat any line down near a fallen fence as live. Stay back and call the utility before anyone touches the fence.
Check the ground for broken post stubs and loose nails before pets or children go back into the yard.
Insurance: whether a homeowners policy covers fence damage is a question for your insurer. We can provide dated photos and a written scope of work for your claim.

Questions
Fence repair questions from Virginia homeowners
Is it cheaper to repair or replace a fence?
Repair is cheaper while the posts are sound, because pickets, panels and hardware are the inexpensive parts. Once several posts have failed along the line, repair costs approach a rebuild and you are paying twice for the same stretch of fence.
Do you take small fence repair jobs?
Yes. We take repair-only jobs, including a single post or gate. On an older fence, we will also tell you when replacing a section makes more sense.
How much does fence repair cost?
It prices per job, not per foot. Nationally, HomeAdvisor puts the average fence repair at about $611, with most jobs between $304 and $939. Your estimate from us is free.
Can one fence panel be replaced?
Yes. Single panels and single boards come out and go back in on wood, vinyl and aluminum fences. The catch is matching: the maker may have discontinued an older vinyl or aluminum profile, and new wood looks lighter than the boards around it for a season or two.
Do you repair fences another company built?
Yes. Send photos of the damage and the whole fence line, and we will tell you what we can fix and what we would replace.
Will insurance cover storm damage to my fence?
That depends on your policy and on what caused the damage, so it is a question for your insurer. We can provide dated photos and a written scope of work to support a claim.
