By Leticia Jensen


Keeping fences in good condition is an essential part of maintaining a property. Fencing damage is one of the surprises that can take place any time. Automobile accidents, ice storms and wind storms as well as wear and tear can take out sections of a barrier. Mere daily exposure to the elements can also damage barriers over the years. In order to perform efficient fence repair Denver residents should do a few things.

You can start by considering the type of barrier you have. Some types of fences are easy to repair. Examples include ornamental aluminum, vinyl, wire, chain link and wood fences. Prior to fixing a barrier, you need to identify the problem first. The usual problems associated with fencing include broken or loose wires, sagging gates, rotting posts and loose posts.

Repairing loose posts promptly is important. If this is not done, the entire structure can fall down. Loose posts can be fixed by installing splints to steady them, using concrete to secure them or replacing them entirely. Rotting should also be fixed promptly to ensure that it does not spread to the rest of the wooden fence. Property owners an fix rotted areas by patching them and applying a wood preservative to the entire structure.

To repair wire fences, property owners can utilize fencing stretchers or hammers to tighten the loose wires or splice the broken wires together. To simplify the process of splicing broken wires, property owners can use extra wire. This extra wire acts as an additional material that is useful for looping the ends of broken sections.

If your gate is sagging and it is no longer possible to close it, your property is not completely secure and it can be open to intruders. To repair a sagging gate, you should examine the hinges and decide if they should be tightened or replaced. You may find it hard to fix some fencing problems by yourself. In such a situation, you should hire the services of a fencing expert.

It is best to use the services of fencing professionals if your barrier has suffered extensive damage due to an accident or natural disaster such as a storm. A fencing company can help you replace an entire barrier if it is necessary to do so. Fencing firms have a wide variety of tools and equipment that help them dig holes for posts quickly and safely. These firms are also able to ensure that the post position and fencing alignment is correct.

You should also hire the services of professionals if you do not have the skills required to repair a barrier. You may choose to learn repairing techniques and lease the tools required to perform this task. However, you may fail to get good results especially if the barrier is made of sturdy materials like bricks, wrought iron or stones.

By opting for professional fence repair you can ensure that your property does not remain exposed unnecessarily. If you have a decorative barrier that enhances the appearance of your property, fixing it will ensure that the appealing look of your property is not affected.
