What We Fix Most in Arlington Yards
Arlington fences take a beating from shifting clay soil, strong sun, and sudden storms. We repair leaning posts, rotting boards, broken panels, damaged gates, and rusted iron rails. Every repair comes with a 1-year warranty, 5 years of free follow-up service, and a free replacement if the same damage returns. We’re licensed and insured, use quality materials, and clean up after every job, so you never pay twice for the same problem. These six issues cover most of the calls we take.
A Post That Has Started to Tilt
Arlington clay drinks rain, swells, then bakes and shrinks. Footings in that cycle loosen yearly, until panels lean.
Boards Gone Soft, Split, or Holed
Sun splits boards above, sprinklers rot them below. Termites move into damp wood, and sound boards crumble.
Sections Flattened by Wind
Spring storms arrive with little warning. Gusts snap weak posts, rip rails loose, peel chain link free.
A Gate That Has Dropped on Its Hinges
Your gate works hardest, swinging daily. Once its post shifts, it drops, drags, and stops latching.
Rust Eating Through Iron Rails
Iron handles heat but hates trapped water. Flaked coating lets rust creep under and eat rails.
Vinyl Panels Cracked by Years of Sun
Older vinyl bakes stiff in this sun, until one gust cracks a panel that once flexed.
During the visit, we show you each problem, explain it clearly, and give you the price upfront.

Why it happens
What Arlington Weather Does to a Fence Line
Arlington sits in the mid Metroplex, yet its fences age differently by district. Your side of town decides the damage.
Up North, Near the River and Viridian
North of I-30, yards near Viridian drain toward the Trinity River and hold water. Fences rot at the base there.
In the Middle of Town, Old Trees and Old Fences
Near UT Arlington, fences went up decades ago under oaks now shading whole yards. Damp boards and roots are the story.
Down South, New Streets on Fresh Clay
South of I-20, subdivisions rose fast toward Mansfield. Young fences stand on settling clay, in full sun, under daily sprinklers.
No Matter Which Side of Town You Live On
Hail in spring, August heat cracking the soil, and sudden storms reach every fence in the city.
The same repair can last ten years on one street and fail in a season on another.
Decision guide
Fix It, or Is It Time to Start Over?
Nobody wants to replace a fence with life left, or fund repairs on one without.
One Repair Can Save It When
- The trouble is boxed into one corner, such as a single failed post.
- The gate frame is sound, and the fault is a hinge or latch.
- Everywhere else the fence feels planted, with boards that still have body.
- The storm took one run of the fence and left the rest untouched.
Starting Over Pays Off When
- Post after post rocks, or has rotted through at ground level.
- Rails bow and boards split from one end to the other.
- You recognize the repairs, having already paid for them once or twice.
- The fence no longer gives privacy, safety, or a decent look.
Our rule is simple. If a repair will stand five years, we sell the repair. If not, we say so.

Jobs Our Specialists Get Called in Arlington City
01
Sorting Out a Failed Post
One bad post drags a run out of line. We open the footing, judge the soil, then reset or replace.
02
Getting a Stubborn Gate to Behave
A gate you must lift or slam means something shifted. We square the frame and correct the post.
03
New Boards in an Old Wood Fence
Ten tired boards do not need a funeral. We cut out the failed ones and blend in new timber.
04
Putting a Storm Hit Fence Back Together
The fallen panel is only the visible damage. Connected posts and rails took strain too, so we test them.

Pricing
Why No Two Quotes Ever Match
Two neighbours can report the same leaning fence and get very different prices. The gap sits behind the lean.
How Bad It Is, and Whether We Can Get at It
One post by an open gate is a morning of work. Six behind a shed is another job.
What Your Fence Is Made Of, and Matching It
Materials price differently, and older fences add a hunt for boards or panels that match yours.
What Is Hiding Under the Soil Line
Buried concrete, old footings, and roots slow post work, and wet clay fights back, heavy and grabbing.
A Small Fix, or a Fence at the End of Its Life
Money inside a healthy fence is well spent. Propping a failing one wastes it.
After a storm
First Moves After You Find the Damage
01
Steer Clear Until It Is Made Safe
A hanging panel weighs more than it looks, with nails pointing out. Keep kids and dogs indoors.
02
Photograph Everything Before You Touch It
Take wide shots of the yard, then close ups of each break, before anything moves. Insurers want that proof.
03
Then Check Every Post, Rail, and Gate
Wind works along a line, not at one break. Rattle each post, swing each gate.

Where Our Vans Go, In and Around Arlington
Our diary fills with Arlington streets first, but the same clay and storms run under nearby towns.
Nearby but not listed? Ring us anyway, a crew is likely near yours.
Why We Look at Your Lot Before We Price
A photo cannot show how your ground drains or where water sits. Arlington generally asks for a permit for most new fences, and front yard fences stay near 4 feet and mostly open, so we check first.
Getting Ready for Our Visit
- Shift chairs, toys, and plant pots back from the damaged fence line.
- Keep pets in the house, and leave gates unlocked for both sides.
- Flag anything buried along the line, such as sprinkler pipes.
- Dig out HOA letters or an insurance claim number, if either applies.
