Signs Your Fence Needs Repairs

Cracked, Warped, or Broken Panels: Any visible damage to the fence panels, whether from weather or impact, can affect its stability and appearance.

Leaning or Sagging Sections: If parts of your fence are leaning or sagging, it could indicate that the posts or supports are weakening.

Rot or Decay: Wooden fences are especially prone to rot and decay, particularly at the base where moisture collects.

Rust or Corrosion: For metal fences, rust can spread quickly and weaken the structure, leading to potential collapse.

Loose or Wobbly Posts: If your fence posts feel unstable or are shifting, it’s a sign that they need attention to prevent further damage.

Difficulty Opening or Closing Gates: Misaligned gates that no longer open or close properly can be a sign of fence settling or warping.

Increased Wear Due to Weather: Extreme weather conditions like storms, excessive rain, or high winds can cause significant damage to your fence.

Pests or Termite Damage: Wooden fences are vulnerable to pests that can cause structural damage, so be on the lookout for signs of infestations.

Fading or Peeling Paint: The loss of paint or protective coatings on your fence can expose it to the elements, causing further damage.

Unwanted Vegetation: Vines or plants growing through or over your fence can cause damage over time if not properly managed.
