Common Questions
What causes fence posts to rot or lean in Toledo's climate?
Toledo winters and spring rains can saturate the ground, causing wood posts to rot or heave. Poor drainage, soil movement, and lack of proper sealing accelerate damage. Ricky Tann inspects the base, replaces rotted posts with pressure-treated lumber, and re-sets them in gravel for better drainage. He also offers gate alignment and latch repair as part of his fencing services.
How can I tell if my wooden fence needs repair or full replacement?
Signs include cracked or warped boards, missing pickets, rusted nails, and posts that wobble when pushed. If more than 30% of the structure is damaged, a replacement may be more cost-effective. Ricky provides a free on-site evaluation, offering drywall-repair-like patching for minor gaps, or full panel replacement. He also checks adjacent structures like doors and windows for weather sealing.
Do you offer same-day repairs for a fallen fence section?
Yes, Ricky Tann prioritizes emergency fence repairs to secure your property quickly. He carries common materials for gates, hinges, and posts. For more extensive damage, he schedules within a day or two. His handyman services also cover door installation and plumbing repairs, so he can address related issues like a broken gate opener or water-damaged siding in the same visit.
