Get a Free QuoteA leaning fence or a sagging gate is almost always a sign of how the fence was set, shallow posts, dry-packed dirt, or worn-out hardware. Patch the picket without fixing the post and you’ll be calling someone again next year.

Leaning posts, broken pickets, sagging gates, and wind-blown sections are a fact of life in Dallas, and most trace back to two culprits: expansive clay soil and North Texas storms. We repair wood, ornamental iron, vinyl, and chain link fences, resetting or replacing failed posts in concrete, swapping rotted or cracked cedar pickets and rails, and rehanging gates with new hinges, latches, and drop rods. From Oak Cliff to Lake Highlands, we fix the cause, not just the symptom.
The black gumbo clay under Dallas yards swells in spring rains and shrinks in summer drought, and that constant movement is what pushes shallow-set posts out of plumb. When we reset a post, we drill past the active layer and anchor it in real concrete so the repair actually holds. After a hailstorm or a spring windstorm rolls through the metro, we prioritize storm-damage calls, tarping, bracing, and rebuilding damaged sections fast so your yard is secure again.
We match existing wood grades, picket styles, and fence heights so repairs blend into the run instead of standing out, and we can stain new boards to match weathered ones. If we get on site and find posts rotted across multiple sections, we’ll tell you honestly whether a targeted repair or a full replacement is the smarter spend. Homeowners across Dallas, from the M Streets to Pleasant Grove, call us for honest fence repair that lasts, backed by our written workmanship warranty, whether it’s one leaning post or a whole storm-damaged fence line.
We also re-stretch sagging chain link, replace broken vinyl panels, re-set leaning gate posts, and add gravel boards to slow rot along the base. Most Dallas repairs are handled in a single visit, and we document storm damage for insurance when needed. Serving Oak Cliff, Lakewood, Pleasant Grove, and the whole metro, every repair is backed by our written workmanship warranty.
Leaning posts, broken boards, and sagging gates are usually symptoms of how a fence was set. We trace problems to the root and fix them to last. Here’s what Dallas homeowners ask about fence repair.
Yes, we handle everything from a single leaning post or damaged section to full runs, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a targeted repair or a larger fix makes more sense.
It depends on the damage, a gate realignment is minor, while resetting multiple posts costs more. We assess it on site and give you a straight price before any work begins.
In most cases, yes. We match wood, iron, vinyl, and chain link as closely as possible so repairs blend in rather than stand out.

A fence that has failed in one place has usually failed for a reason that is still present. A leaning post next to four sound ones is a repair. Six leaning posts along one run is a fence telling you the whole line was set the same way and the rest are following. Reading which one you have is most of the value of the visit.
Plenty of fences we look at need one post and an afternoon. That is a fine outcome and we would rather tell you that than sell you a fence you did not need. Repairs are quoted on what we find rather than on a standard rate for a section, because two leaning posts can be two very different jobs depending on why they moved. If it turns out to be simpler than it looked when you called, the quote reflects that. We are not looking to convert every repair call into a replacement.
We’ll assess the damage, give you a straight price, and tell you honestly whether to repair or replace.
