Friendly Neighbor Roof & Fence - Tuscumbia's Professional Fence Builders

Gate sagging is usually caused by worn hinges or loose hinge screws, often due to age, weather exposure, or heavy use. Over time, the gate's weight can bend hinges or strip screw holes, causing it to drag on the ground or not close properly. Our repair service involves replacing or reinforcing hinges, adjusting the gate frame, and tightening all hardware. If the gate post is also leaning, we can reinforce it as well. We'll have your gate swinging level and smooth again.

Broken gate latches are common in Tuscumbia due to frequent rain and humidity causing rust and corrosion, or simply from normal wear and tear. A broken latch means your gate won't stay shut, which can be a safety and privacy issue. We can replace the latch with a heavy-duty stainless steel or galvanized model that resists rust. We also check the alignment of the gate and latch strike plate to ensure a secure fit. If needed, we can adjust the gate itself to prevent future binding that stresses the latch.

Yes, painting or staining your fence and gate helps protect against moisture and sun damage that can cause wood to warp, swell, or rot—leading to sagging gates and loose hinges. Weatherproofing adds a sealant layer that repels water and reduces swelling. Our fence painting and staining service not only improves appearance but extends the life of your fence. We also offer weatherproofing treatments specifically for gates to keep hardware and wood in good condition for years.
