CUT ABOVE FENCE & REPAIR A - Hereford's Trusted Fence Installation

After heavy wind events, check for leaning or bowed fence sections, loose or missing pickets, and gates that no longer latch properly. Sometimes wind damage isn't obvious right away. We recommend walking the full fence line after a high-wind day, especially around open corners where gusts are strongest. If you notice posts that feel wobbly, gaps between panels, or sagging rails, call us for an inspection before the damage worsens.

Overgrown bushes, tall grasses, and climbing vines can push against fence panels, trap moisture against wood, and hide small animals that dig near posts. Hereford's irrigation and summer rains make plants grow fast against fences. The best prevention is keeping a 12-18 inch gap of clear ground between your fence and any shrubs or vines. If vegetation has already warped or rotted sections of your fence, CUT ABOVE FENCE & REPAIR A can replace damaged parts and install a rot-resistant barrier to give you a fresh start.

A dragging gate typically means the fence post has moved or the hinge has loosened due to wind pressure. The first step is to check if the post is still firmly set in concrete. If it's wobbly, we may need to reset the post with deeper concrete or a gravel base for better drainage. Then we'll realign the gate and reinforce the hinges with heavy-duty screws. This should keep your gate swinging smoothly even during Hereford's next windy spell.
