Fence Contractors La Porte TX | Call Leatherwood Lawn Specialists

Gate sagging often happens due to loose hinges, a settling post, or the weight of the gate pulling over time. In La Porte's humid climate, wood can also warp. We fix it by checking the post's concrete footing, replacing worn hinges, and adding a tension cable or anti-sag kit. For heavy gates, we may recommend a wheel or roller to take the load.

Look for gaps between pickets, a panel that wobbles when you push it, or nails that have popped out. You might also notice the fence leaning slightly. If you see rusted brackets or cracked concrete around the post base, those are early warnings. Catching it early saves you from a full replacement.

Absolutely. We assess the damage first—if the posts are solid, we can tighten or replace brackets, re-nail pickets, and add extra supports. If a post is rotted or the concrete base has shifted, we'll excavate and repour a new footing. Our goal is to restore strength and stability without unnecessary cost.
