Thompson Caretaking and Construction | Best Residential Fencing in Tupper Lake, NY

Broken gate hinges in Tupper Lake are often caused by the weight of ice and snow pulling the gate downward, combined with freeze-thaw cycles that expand metal parts. This repeated stress can crack or bend hinges, making the gate sag or drag. Thompson Caretaking and Construction can repair or replace damaged hinges, re-align the gate, and reinforce the frame to prevent future problems. We also check for ice damage to the chain link itself and can replace any stretched or broken sections.

Common signs of winter damage include loose or popped nails, split or warped boards, soft or rotted wood around posts and joists, and visible shifting or sagging. In Tupper Lake, heavy snow loads and ice buildup can also cause railings to loosen and deck boards to cup. If you notice any of these issues, our team can assess whether a targeted repair will suffice or if a full replacement is more cost-effective and safe in the long run.

Absolutely. At Thompson Caretaking and Construction, we offer comprehensive seasonal care. For example, we can schedule spring lawn clean-up, mowing, and edging alongside fence and deck inspections and repairs. This means you get a single point of contact for checking gate hinges after ice damage, tightening deck railings, and getting your lawn ready for backyard use. It’s a convenient way to ensure your entire outdoor space is safe and looking its best for summer in Tupper Lake.
