Fence Installation Dallas TX | Call Texas Valley Handyman

Loose fence panels are often caused by Dallas's clay-heavy soil shifting with seasonal rains and drought, which can loosen posts and rails. Signs include visible gaps between panels or wobbling when the fence is touched. At Texas Valley Handyman, we secure loose panels by adding new brackets or reinforcing the framework. If the posts are damaged, we reset them with concrete or replace them entirely. We handle both wood and metal fences across Dallas, including in neighborhoods like Lake Highlands and Preston Hollow.

Yes, sagging gates are a common issue we fix regularly. The cause is usually a loose hinge, a warped frame, or settling posts. You'll notice the gate not latching properly or scraping the ground when you open it. We can often solve this by tightening or replacing hinges, adding a corner brace, or adjusting the latch. If the post is leaning, we'll straighten and reinforce it. It's a straightforward fix that saves you the cost of a new gate. We serve areas like the M Streets and the Bishop Arts District.

Dallas's hot summers and heavy rain can quickly weather your fence. Signs of weather damage include peeling paint, splitting wood, or rust on metal gates. For wood fences, we apply a quality stain or sealant that protects against moisture and UV rays. For metal fences, we touch up any rust spots and apply a weatherproof coating. We also inspect for loose boards or failing posts before they cause bigger issues. Regular weatherproofing every 2–3 years helps your fence hold up through North Texas weather extremes.
