Business Overview
Fence On The Mend is a Joliet-based fence repair company with over 20 years of experience serving the Chicagoland area. Founded because larger companies often overlook small repairs or charge excessive overhead costs, we focus exclusively on fence and gate repair, restoration, and maintenance. Our team handles wood, PVC, chain link, and aluminum fences, as well as dog runs and dumpster enclosures. We offer free estimates and virtual consultations, and we provide a warranty on all repairs. Pricing is transparent and reasonable, and we work year-round, even in winter. Whether you need a fence post straightened, a gate rehung, or weatherproofing applied, we provide timely, professional service. Based in Joliet, we serve neighborhoods near the Rialto Square Theatre, Joliet Junior College, and the Des Plaines River. Our goal is to give your fence a long life and a like-new appearance without the high cost or long wait of big-name fencing companies.
Frequently Asked Questions
My fence posts are leaning after the freeze-thaw cycle. Can you straighten them without replacing the whole fence?
Yes, leaning fence posts are a common issue in Joliet due to our clay soil and freeze-thaw cycles. We can often reset the posts by removing the old concrete, adding fresh concrete, and bracing the post plumb. For severely rotted posts, we’ll replace just the post and reuse the rest of the fence. This saves you money compared to a full replacement.
Do you paint or stain fences, and how do you prepare the surface?
We offer fence and gate painting or staining as part of our restoration services. For wood fences, we pressure wash, sand, and apply a primer before the final coat. For metal or aluminum, we remove rust and apply a weather-resistant paint. This protects against Joliet’s humidity and sun exposure, extending the life of your fence.
My automatic gate won’t open. Can you repair it, or do I need a new motor?
We can repair most automatic gate issues, including motor problems, sensor misalignment, and track obstructions. We’ll diagnose the issue first—often it’s a simple sensor adjustment or a worn gear. If the motor is beyond repair, we’ll quote a replacement. We also install new automatic gates if you’re upgrading from a manual one.
