Perry Property Solutions - Fredericksburg's Top-Rated Fence Contractors

Gate sagging is often caused by the heavy, expansive limestone clay soils common around Fredericksburg, which can shift gateposts over time. This is especially noticeable in older rock fences or ornamental gates near Main Street. Signs include a gate that drags on the ground or doesn’t latch properly. As a solution, Perry Property Solutions will reset and brace the post with concrete, replace worn hinges with heavy-duty hardware, and add diagonal bracing to prevent future sagging. We can also repair or replace the gate panel itself if it’s warped.

Damaged ornamental fencing is common in our area due to deer pressure, wind, and occasional vehicle bumping. You’ll often see bent pickets, cracked welds, or loose sections near the Ranch Road 965 corridor. Our repair process involves first assessing the damage—whether it’s a broken section, a loose gate, or rust spots. We can reweld breaks, straighten bent pieces, replace missing decorative tips, and reattach sections to the fence posts. If the fencing is steel or wrought iron, we’ll also sand and repaint or apply a rust-inhibitor to protect against Fredericksburg’s humidity.

Yes, weatherproofing is key to preventing both sagging and damage from moisture and sun. In Fredericksburg, our high summer heat and occasional winter freezes can dry out or swell wooden fence components, leading to rot, warping, and loosened joints. For wood fences, we apply a high-quality stain or water-repellent sealer and check the post-bases for rot. For ornamental fences, we use a rust-proof primer and topcoat. This extra step extends the life of your fence and gate, reduces sagging from loose hardware, and keeps your property looking good along the Pedernales River corridor.
