Clear Choice Contractors - Dickinson's Trusted Fence Contractors

The main cause is the high humidity and clay-rich soil in Dickinson, which can shift and swell, loosening the gate posts over time. This leads to hinges pulling away and the gate's weight causing sagging. Signs include the gate dragging on the ground, uneven gaps, or difficulty latching. Clear Choice Contractors can fix this by replacing the posts with cement-set galvanized steel or treated wood, and adding a sturdy diagonal brace to redistribute the weight.

Look for signs like multiple rotted or warped pickets, loose posts that wobble, and boards that are cracking or splintering. If more than 30% of your fence shows these issues, replacement is usually more cost-effective than patching. In Dickinson, where moisture accelerates decay, replacing with pressure-treated wood or vinyl is recommended. Clear Choice Contractors can assess your fence and suggest repair or full replacement, ensuring it stays secure for the long term.

Yes, we can add a new gate to any sound fence or deck, or repair a sagging gate without replacing the whole system. We use heavy-duty hinges, a turnbuckle kit, and a spring-loaded latch to prevent future sagging. For decks, we install gates that match your railing style.
