FAQs

Why do my gate latches keep failing, and how can you fix them?

Gate latch failures often stem from misalignment due to settling posts, worn-out hardware, or rust. The constant freeze-thaw cycle in Chicago can also shift gate posts over time. We can repair or replace the latch, realign the gate, or fabricate a custom steel latch and hinge system that is more durable than off-the-shelf hardware. For frequent issues, upgrading to a heavier-duty fabricated latch provides a longer-lasting solution.

My chain link fence is rusting badly. Is it time for a full replacement, or can you repair it?

Surface rust can often be treated and repainted if the fence structure is still sound. However, if the rust has caused holes, weakened the fabric, or compromised the posts, replacement is usually the better long-term solution. We can assess the extent of the rust damage during a free estimate. If replacement is needed, we can fabricate new steel panels or install a new chain link fence that includes proper galvanization to resist our local weather.

I need a new deck built, but also have a rusty old gate. Can you handle both jobs together?

Absolutely. We specialize in deck construction, repair, and replacement alongside custom metal fabrication. Many Chicago homeowners tackle both projects at once to improve their backyard. We can build a new deck with composite or wood and fabricate a matching steel gate or railing. Doing both together saves time and ensures the two structures are designed to work seamlessly.
