Greenhorn Property Services | Local Commercial Fencing in Colorado Springs, CO

The most common cause of fence damage here is the combination of intense UV radiation, dry air, and wind. This environment dries out wood quickly, causing boards to shrink, cup, and crack at the nail heads. You'll often see this happening on the sun-facing side of your yard. At Greenhorn Property Services, we regularly replace individual warped boards and re-secure loose rails before a small problem turns into a total panel failure.

Look for fence posts that are leaning or wobbly, boards that are completely split or pulling away from the frame, and gates that drag on the ground or won't latch properly. If more than 20-30% of your fence shows these signs, a DIY patch-up usually won't hold up to our next windstorm. We recommend a professional assessment to see if targeted board replacement or a full section rebuild is the most cost-effective solution.

Absolutely. Sagging gates are one of our most requested repairs. In Colorado Springs, the heavy spring winds can quickly pull gate hinges out of alignment or damage the frame itself. Our solution typically involves replacing the hinges with heavy-duty, wind-rated hardware, reinforcing the gate frame, and re-setting the gate post in concrete. We make sure your gate swings true and latches securely, which is essential for safety and privacy.
