Gutierrez Landscaping & Fencing: Experienced Fence Contractors Serving San Mateo, CA 94401

A sagging gate is often caused by loose hinges, a settling post, or heavy wood swelling from San Mateo's damp climate. You might notice the gate dragging on the ground or not latching properly. Our team can tighten or replace hinges, reset the post, or install a support wheel. For automatic gates, we also check the motor alignment. We offer manual and automatic gate repair to get your gate swinging smoothly again.

Fence panels crack mainly from weather exposure—sun, rain, and temperature swings—or from impact like a fallen branch. In San Mateo, the coastal fog can cause wood to expand and contract, leading to splits. If the damage is minor, we can patch and stain the panel. For larger cracks, we recommend replacing the affected section and applying a weatherproofing treatment to protect the rest of your fence. Our fence repair and painting/staining services keep your fence looking good and lasting longer.

It depends on the issue. If the gate just won't open or close, it might be a simple sensor misalignment or a worn gear—our automatic gate repair can handle that. But if the track is bent or the motor is old and parts are hard to find, a new installation might save you money in the long run. We'll inspect your system, give you an honest opinion, and quote both options. Many San Mateo homeowners choose repair for gates under 10 years old and replacement for older models.
