Professional Fence Repairs

Fences have to endure constant exposure to the wind, rain, moisture etc. In the UK, fences are prone to wear and damage due to the poor weather conditions we experience for most of the year. Over time, even very good quality fencing that has been professionally installed can start to become damaged.

Here are just some of the issues we are called out for:

Broken fence panels
Leaning fencing
Rotting timber
Storm-damaged fencing
Loose or cracked posts
Damaged gravel boards
Rusting metal fencing
Broken fence rails
Fence post repair work

Fence Post Repair Services

Fence posts are one of the most common causes of fencing problems. When fence posts start to become loose or cracked it often has the effect of causing the rest of the dense to start sagging.

Our fence post repair services focus on treating the issue at its cause, so no more repairs are necessary. We want to restore the strength and stability of the fence so it can perform as if it had been newly installed.

Below we have listed some of the type of fence posts we repair:

Timber fence posts
Concrete fence posts
Loose fence supports
Damaged post fixings
Cracked concrete posts

It is often true that acting early and replacing a damaged fence post or two can actually save the rest of the fencing and avoid the much larger costs that come with a full fence replacement.

Fence Repairs vs Replacement

A common dilemma our customers approach us about is whether their fence needs to be repaired or replaced.

Our approach to these types of situations are very simple. If it is the case that the fence can be repaired properly and still provide good and reliable long-term performance, we will most likely recommend that the fence is repaired. However, if the fence is too damaged or weakened to justify repair costs, we will explain why replacement is likely the better option.

Factors we consider when making our judgement:

Age of the fence
Extent of the damage
Condition of the posts
Cost of repairs compared to replacement
Overall stability of the fencing

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to repair a fence?

This depends on a few different factors such as the nature of the damage to the fence, how spread it is as well as the type of fence it is. As you would expect smaller repairs such as replacing a panel will cost far less than structural repairs over a large area. The Witham Fencing Specialists provide free non-obligatory quotes before starting work on any of our projects.

Is it worth repairing a fence vs replacing a fence?

This is true in many cases if the fence posts and most of the structure are still in good condition. In these situations, repair jobs can extend the life of the fencing and is a cheaper alternative to a full fence replacement. However, is there is so much damage to the fence that it becomes hard to justify the costs, then a fence replacement will be recommended.

Do I legally have to repair my fence?

There is typically no legal requirement for you to repair your own fence unless it poses a safety issue to neighbours or the public.

What is the lifespan of a fence?

This depends on the type of fencing system you have. For example, the lifespan of a timber fence will be lower than the lifespan of a composite fence which is more resistant to wear and tear. That being said, timber fencing often lasts around 10 to 15 years when properly installed and maintained.

Who is responsible for fence repair between neighbours in the UK?

Check your property deeds for information on who is responsible for maintaining the fence in question. It is a good idea to have this resolved before getting in touch for any fencing projects.
