Question Answers
What causes a fence gate to sag or stick, and how can you fix it?
A sagging or sticking gate is often caused by loose hinges, a warped frame, or settling posts. Over time, hardware can rust or loosen, especially in Fresno's dry heat. I'll inspect the hinges, adjust or replace them, and check if the gate frame needs reinforcement. If the post has shifted, I can re-anchor it or install a new one to ensure smooth operation.
Why do fence posts shift in Fresno, and what’s the best solution?
Fresno's clay soil expands and contracts with moisture changes, causing fence posts to move. Signs include leaning sections or gaps at the bottom. I recommend digging out the loose post, adding gravel for drainage, and setting it with concrete. For severe cases, I can install a new post with a concrete footing to prevent future movement.
Can you fix broken gate hardware without replacing the entire gate?
Absolutely. Most broken gate hardware—like latches, hinges, or handles—can be replaced individually. I'll match the style and finish to your existing gate, or suggest more durable options if needed. This saves you money and keeps your gate functional quickly. If the gate itself is damaged, I can repair or rebuild it as part of the same visit.
