Professional Fence Repair

Your fence defines your property line, but it also improves your curb appeal and offers security and privacy. Since your fencing is exposed to the elements, minor accidents can make your property look worse for wear. If you have a leaning post, a sagging gate, or rotting wood, call Mr. Handyman. We offer professional services that can help, including fence repair in Princeton, New Jersey. Read more for tips on fixing fence problems and how to prevent trouble in the future. 

Simple Fence Fixes

Minor issues can make your fence look neglected, even if it is still structurally sound. A missing picket, loose boards, or chipped paint will diminish curb appeal and compromise your privacy. Thankfully, these are some of the most affordable repairs to handle. Our team can help you replace broken boards or vinyl panels that have been cracked without removing entire sections. A fresh coat of paint or stain can also be applied to protect against moisture and UV damage. Occasional cleanings with mild soap and water will help prevent dirt buildup and mold growth, so your refurbished fence stays in great shape for years. 

Testimonials

Our Customers Love our Services

From the first phone call the Mr. Handyman organization was responsive, knowledgeable, and terrific to work with. Our carpenter was an expert and a good match for our mix of projects--fixing an exterior door, an interior door and deck. He gave us great counsel on two other projects as well. I would use this group again in a heartbeat.

I called Mr. Handyman in Pennington a couple of weeks ago and they sent Patrick to repair our front door foot sill. He was on time, professional and did great work! We were very impressed and will definitely use Mr. Handyman again. Patrick is the best!

I had been experiencing rain water penetration around an upstairs bedroom double hung window, apparently for some time with visible damage becoming aware recently.  The contractor, Paul who was excellent in his approach, cleaned and replaced the damaged areas and pointed out the reasons why the prior work failed.  He also took additional measures to seal the area from future water invasion.  It was a quality result and much appreciated!  The experience with the owners of the business in setting up the work request was very easy and they as well were very personable and professional.  I would definitely use their services again.  Bill D

We had minor home repairs.  The cost was meaningful but not exorbitant.  And the technician, Vince, did excellent work.  He found a solution to our problems, letting us know at every stage what he proposed to do.  I would use Mr. Handyman again.

Philip Nord Robbinsville, NJ

I called at 9:30 this morning. The issue was repaired and cleaned up by 11am. Absolutely incredible in this day and age. Thank you to everyone at Mr Handyman. Fantastic service I will absolutely be using you again.

Matt Smith Princeton, NJ

We needed two ceiling tiles in our finished basement replaced which involved cutting out a space for our lighting and some batteries replaced in our garage door openers.  Both jobs were completed quickly and done well.  Thank you Mr. Handyman!  This company seems very professional in the way they operate, glad to know they are around!

Laura helped me every step of the way in making sure the job was organized for a timely installation of my new window Air Conditioner before the next heat wave hit. She fully understood the special needs on our household and went out of her way to accommodate my wife and I. She made herself available to answer any questions as they came up during the process. Also, when Andy and Joe arrived on the day of the installation, they were both friendly and professional. Did every thing they could to make the experience a stress free one. Would definitely recommend to friends and relatives.

Michael Alibrando Ewing, NJ

I hired Mr. Handyman to repair my garage door frames here in PA.  Vince came right on time, but not before I received an email with his picture and full bio.  If Vince is typical of who this company hires, then you can't go wrong. He was so polite, knowledgable, informative, thorough, fair, and neat as can be.  You never would have known he was here, except for the beautiful new framing around my garage doors.  I couldn't be happier. THANK YOU, VINCE!!!

Invest in Routine Maintenance for a Long-Lasting Fence

Avoiding small repairs or maintenance tasks could cause bigger problems later on. At least once a year, conduct a quick inspection to look for signs of trouble, like a loose board or rusted hardware. If you have a wooden fence, check for rot, especially near the base, where moisture is most likely to accumulate. Metal fences are at risk of rust, so check for any areas where the coating has worn off. You can use a wire brush and rust-resistant paint to keep the corrosion in check. Clean your fence regularly as well to remove grime that can cause premature wear. Power washing is a great way to remove buildup. Our team can offer low-pressure power washing to keep your fence looking brand new without causing damage.  

Protecting Your Wooden Fence from Weather Damage

Wooden fences are constantly exposed to rain, snow, and sunshine. The moisture can cause rot and the extreme heat causes cracks. One of the best ways to protect your wood fence is to apply a high-quality sealant every two to three years. Our professionals use water-repellent stains to shield your dancing from moisture damage. If your fence already shows signs of damage, we can replace the affected boards and apply protective coatings to avoid further deterioration.

Preventing Gate Sagging by Reinforcing Hinges and Latches

If your gate no longer closes or opens smoothly, you might need a professional repair. Weight and weather can cause hinges to become loose or misaligned. Rather than struggling with makeshift fixes, our team can reinforce or replace the hinges and latches with heavy-duty alternatives. We can install diagonal braces to help distribute the weight more evenly. If the gate post itself is leaning, you may need more support. We can secure the post to keep your gate properly aligned. 

When to Repair and When to Schedule a Fence Replacement in Princeton

Fence repairs can help keep your property in great shape, but sometimes, a total fence replacement in Princeton is needed. If large sections of wood are rotting, you have multiple posts that are leaning, or wide-scale damage has occurred from storms, then you may need to consider a more serious overhaul. A local handyman in the Princeton area can determine if repairs will be enough or if you need more extensive work.
