Fence and gate problems are common around Austin homes because weather, soil movement, age, pets, and daily use can wear down exterior wood and hardware. My Uncle Gus helps with fence and gate repair for homeowners, landlords, and rental properties that need practical repairs without turning every job into a full replacement.
Common fence repair requests include loose boards, broken pickets, leaning sections, damaged trim, loose rails, gate sagging, broken hinges, latch problems, and storm-related damage. Some issues are simple hardware fixes. Others may require replacing boards, reinforcing a gate, adjusting hinges, or addressing rotted wood.
A gate that does not close properly can become a safety, privacy, and security problem. Rental properties also need gates and fences in good condition before a tenant moves in. For homeowners, fence repairs often improve curb appeal and keep pets or children safer in the yard.
When requesting an estimate, send photos of the full fence section plus close-ups of the damaged area. Include whether the fence is wood, metal, privacy fencing, or another style. If the gate is the issue, send a photo of both hinges and the latch. This helps determine whether the repair is a hardware adjustment, board replacement, or larger exterior repair.
My Uncle Gus helps Austin-area customers handle practical home repairs, small exterior projects, and punch-list work with honest communication.
