Fencing Company Wichita Falls TX | Call Righteous Repairs Handyman Services

After a hailstorm in Wichita Falls, the first sign of damage is often visible dents or splintering on the wood or vinyl. If the damage is limited to a few individual pickets or sections, a targeted repair is usually sufficient. However, if you see widespread cracking, warping, or the wood has lost its structural integrity across a large area, a full replacement is likely the more durable solution. We can inspect your fence and give you a clear, no-pressure assessment of what's needed.

High winds can definitely stress gate hardware and posts. A sagging gate is often a sign that the hinge screws are stripped or the gate post has shifted. Our first step is to inspect the post's foundation. If the post is still solid in the ground, we can often fix the sag by replacing the hinges with heavy-duty, wind-rated hardware. If the post itself is loose or rotted, we will need to replace it to ensure the gate functions properly and stays aligned. We'll find the root cause and fix it right.

Prevention is key. For new fence installations, we recommend using treated lumber or high-quality vinyl. For existing fences, the most effective solution is to ensure all posts are set deep enough (typically below the frost line) and anchored in concrete. Additionally, using longer, galvanized screws instead of nails for pickets can prevent them from popping off in high winds. We can also add wind screens or spacing between pickets to reduce wind load. We'll walk you through the best options for your specific fence type and budget.
