Fence & Gate Repair in Buffalo, NY

Fences take a beating in Western New York. Between the freeze-thaw that heaves posts right out of the ground over winter, the wet soil that rots wood from the base up, and the weight of snow leaning against a run for months, few fences around Buffalo make it many years without needing attention.

We reset heaved and leaning posts, rehang sagging gates so they latch on the first try, swap out rotted or split pickets, and replace failed hardware with galvanized hinges and latches built to take the winters. If your fence shifted over the last cold season or is just tired, we'll tell you honestly whether it's a repair or time to talk replacement.

What this covers

  • Frost-heaved and leaning post resetting
  • Sagging gate realignment and rehang
  • Rotted and split picket replacement
  • Galvanized hinge and latch upgrades
  • Snow and winter damage repair
  • Gate hardware and drop-rod installs
  • Rail and stringer repair
  • Section rebuild and board replacement
A note from around here: Buffalo's freeze-thaw winters heave fence posts out of plumb every year, and months of snow piled against a run finish the job. We reset posts below the frost line where we can and use galvanized hardware that won't rust out after a couple of wet, salty seasons.

Neighbors often ask

My gate won't latch after the winter — can it be saved?

Often, yes. A gate that dropped over the cold season usually needs the hinges reset and the post checked for plumb after frost heave, not a whole new gate. We'll tell you honestly if a post rotted or heaved too far and needs replacing instead.

My fence leans more every spring — why?

That's frost heave. Water in the soil freezes, expands and lifts the posts, and once one shifts it pulls its neighbors. We reset them solidly, deeper where we can, so the run stands straight again through the next freeze.
