Clients want post replacement that restores proper alignment of adjacent sections, not just a standalone structural fix that leaves the repaired section visibly out of line.

What clients expect and what professionals need to know
Fence repair replaces rotted or broken posts (the most common failure point), re-attaches leaning sections, replaces broken fence boards and rails, repairs gate hardware (hinges, latches, anti-sag kits for drooping gates), and restores sections damaged by vehicle impact or storm. Post replacement requires excavating around the existing post, removing the old post and concrete footing, augering a new hole, and setting a new post in fresh concrete with proper alignment to adjacent posts. Post bases above grade are the first component to show rot.

Common questions from clients looking for Fence Repair services
Probe the post at and below grade with a screwdriver — soft, punky wood that the blade sinks into indicates rot that has compromised structural integrity; a post that wiggles even after tamping soil indicates the concrete footing has failed or the post has broken off below grade.
Post repair spurs (Oz-Post type metal brackets) can be driven into the ground and attached to the remaining post stub when the post has broken at grade — viable if the top portion of the post is sound; full replacement is required when rot extends up the post.
Gates sag because the hinge side post leans from the gate's weight and leverage; an anti-sag kit (turnbuckle and cable running from top hinge corner to bottom latch corner) counteracts the sag; if the post has leaned, it must be plumbed and re-set before the gate will function correctly.
Re-fastening with 16d galvanized ring-shank nails or 2.5-inch coarse-thread deck screws is more permanent than the original smooth nails; if the rail behind the board has also rotted, replace both the board and the rail.
If posts are still plumb and the structure is sound, individual broken boards, rails, and knocked-off pickets can be replaced cost-effectively; if posts have been broken off at grade or the concrete footings have been lifted, full section replacement is more economical than repair.
