Marin Electric Sliding Gate Service & Repair: Experienced Commercial Fencing Serving Chatsworth, CA 91311

Look for posts leaning or tilting, cracks in the concrete base, or the ground pulling away from the post. You might also notice your gate starting to sag or drag on the ground. These are signs the soil around your fence posts is eroding, often due to seasonal rain or runoff.

First, we inspect the posts for damage. If the posts are sound but loose, we re-set them in fresh concrete and compact the soil to prevent further erosion. If the gate itself is warped or damaged, we’ll repair or replace it. Our service includes reinforcing the entire gate system for long-term stability.

Yes, weatherproofing can help. Applying a sealant or stain protects the wood from moisture, which reduces rot and decay that make posts vulnerable to shifting soil. For Chatsworth’s dry summers and wet winters, a good weatherproofing treatment extends the life of your fence and gates.
