Top-Rated Fencing Company in New Boston, TX 75570 - King’s Repair & Handyman Service

This is a common issue in New Boston due to expansive clay soils that shift with moisture changes, causing fence posts to move. Over time, this movement can misalign the gate, making it drag and preventing the latch from catching. Our handyman service can realign the gate, adjust or replace hinges, and if needed, stabilize the post by resetting it in concrete. We also offer cabinet repair and door repair services, which use similar alignment techniques for a smooth, functional fix.

Yes, a wobbly fence post often indicates that the wood has rotted at the base or the soil around it has shifted, which is common in our area. If left unaddressed, it can lead to the entire fence section collapsing, especially during heavy rain or wind. As part of our handyman repair services, we can assess the damage, replace the rotted section, and secure the post with concrete to prevent future movement. We also provide stucco repair and siding repair for other parts of your home that may be affected by similar soil issues.

Often, a stiff gate is caused by a hinge that has rusted or a post that has leaned slightly due to soil movement. Before recommending a replacement, we check the alignment, lubricate or replace the hinges, and ensure the gate swings freely. If the gate is warped or the wood is damaged, we can repair it with our door repair and furniture repair techniques. In cases where the damage is extensive, we also offer new door installation and fence gate replacement. Our goal is to provide a cost-effective solution that extends the life of your existing gate.
