Common Questions

What causes a gate to sag or drag on the ground, and how can you fix it?

A sagging gate is often caused by loose hinges, a leaning fence post, or the gate frame twisting under its own weight over time. If the post has moved due to soil shifting, we can re-set and brace it with concrete. For hinge issues, we adjust or replace the hinges and may add a diagonal tension rod to straighten the gate. In Los Angeles, where soil can dry and shrink or get heavy after rain, checking the post footing is usually the first step. Our fence and gate repair service covers straightening, re-hanging, and reinforcing gates so they swing freely again.

My automatic gate opener is making a grinding noise and sometimes stops halfway. Is it a motor problem or something else?

A grinding noise usually points to worn gears in the motor or debris caught in the track. If the gate stops halfway, the opener's sensors may be misaligned, or there could be binding in the gate's hinges. We start by inspecting the gate's mechanical parts—if the gate binds, the opener works too hard and can fail. Our automatic gate repair service includes cleaning tracks, adjusting limit switches, lubricating moving parts, and replacing gearboxes or motors as needed. We serve areas from Echo Park to Encino, so call us for a quick diagnosis.

How do I know if my fence needs weatherproofing or if it's just normal wear?

If you notice peeling paint, exposed wood grain that feels fuzzy, or small cracks that hold moisture after rain, it's time for weatherproofing. Los Angeles sun and occasional rain can break down wood finishes quickly, especially on fences facing south or west. Our fence weatherproofing service includes cleaning, sanding, applying a high-quality stain or sealant, and painting or staining if desired. This stops rot, prevents post movement from moisture damage, and extends the fence's life. Waiting too long can lead to warped boards and sagging sections that need full repair.
