Brooks Handy Work Fencing & Painting | Experienced Residential Fencing in Vallejo, CA

Yes, UV exposure is a leading cause of vinyl fence degradation in our area. The sun breaks down the surface, causing a chalky layer, brittleness, and eventual cracking. For minor damage, we can clean and apply a protective UV-resistant coating to slow the process. If sections are cracked or warped, we can replace individual panels or slats. For fences that are extensively damaged, full replacement may be more cost-effective. We’ll inspect your fence and give you a straightforward recommendation.

Aging wood in Vallejo’s wet season and salty air leads to rot—especially at ground contact points. The most effective solution is to remove the rotted posts and set new ones in concrete, using pressure-treated lumber rated for ground contact. We also recommend sealing or staining the entire fence after repairs to add moisture resistance. If only a few posts are damaged, we can do targeted repairs. If most of the fence is failing, a partial or full rebuild may make more sense. We’ll help you decide based on the extent of the rot and your budget.

We cover a wide range of handyman and maintenance needs. Beyond fence and gate installation, repair, and staining, we do interior and exterior painting—including entire houses or single rooms. We also install and repair appliances like dishwashers, ranges, and water heaters. Other common jobs include drywall patching, caulking, faucet and toilet repair, furniture assembly, gutter cleaning, window repair, and childproofing. If it’s a practical fix around the house, chances are we can handle it.
