FAQs

What causes a fence gate to sag, and how can it be fixed?

Sagging gates are usually caused by loose hinges, a warped frame, or posts that have shifted due to soil movement. R & R Builders can adjust the hinges, replace damaged hardware, or reset the post with a concrete base. If the gate itself is twisted, we may reinforce it with a tension cable or replace the panel. Proper weatherproofing also helps prevent future sagging.

My fence posts are leaning after heavy rain. Is this a sign of a bigger problem?

Leaning posts often indicate that the soil around the post has softened or that the post has rotted below ground. This is common in Placerville’s wet winters. If caught early, we can brace the post or dig it out and set it in fresh concrete. Ignoring it can lead to the entire fence section collapsing, so it’s best to address it promptly.

Can you repair a rotting fence post without replacing the whole fence?

Yes, in many cases we can replace just the damaged post using a concrete footing and a galvanized bracket to attach the new post to the existing rails. This saves the rest of the fence and is more cost-effective than a full replacement. We also treat the new wood with a weatherproof sealant to extend its life.
