Leaning Posts, Rot and Storm Damage
Long fence runs on big Parker lots take a beating from wind, storms and the clay soil that swells when it’s wet and shrinks when it’s dry. That movement loosens posts, and once a few posts lean, the whole line follows. We reset or replace posts in concrete and replace rotted boards and rails so the fence stands straight again.

Iron Fence and Gate Repair in Parker
We repair bent pickets, rusted panels and damaged iron sections, and we fix wood and iron gates that sag, drag or won’t latch. For automatic gates, we repair openers, sensors, keypads and remotes, including on the estate driveway gates common in Whitestone Estates, Kings Crossing and across Parker.
If your gate stopped working, try the safe checks in our gate troubleshooting guide first and leave anything electrical to us.

Why Parker Homeowners Call Easton Fencing
Easton Fencing has repaired and built fences and gates across Collin County for 17 years, and Parker is a regular stop for our crews. Our in-house crews do every repair, we are fully insured, and we tell you plainly whether a repair or a replacement makes more sense.
Easton’s Warranty: If we installed your iron fence, gate or opener, it came with the manufacturer’s 10-year warranty (manufacturer terms apply) and Easton’s 10-year rust-free warranty on iron work. Cedar is a natural wood, so it doesn’t carry a manufacturer’s warranty, but we stand behind our work. For minor issues, Justin and his crew can often handle quick fixes at little or no cost. Repairs that need parts or extra labor may carry a charge, and coverage is reviewed case by case.

Fence and Gate Repair Questions from Parker Homeowners
Answers to the questions Parker homeowners ask us most about fence and gate repair.
Will you repair a fence or gate another company installed?
Yes. Easton Fencing repairs cedar, wood and iron fences and swing and slide gates in Parker no matter who installed them.
Why are the posts on my Parker fence leaning?
Parker sits on clay soil that swells when it’s wet and shrinks when it’s dry, which loosens posts over time, especially on long runs. Posts that rot at the ground line lean too. We reset or replace them in concrete.
Can you repair just part of my fence?
Yes, in most cases. If the boards, panels and most posts are in good shape, we repair the damaged section. If the fence is near the end of its life, we tell you honestly and show you your options.
Do you repair iron fences and driveway gates?
Yes. We repair bent pickets, rusted panels and damaged iron sections, and we fix gates that sag, drag or won’t latch, including estate driveway gates in Whitestone Estates and Kings Crossing.
Do you repair automatic gate openers?
Yes. Easton Fencing repairs openers, sensors, keypads and remotes on automatic swing and slide gates.
Is my repair covered by a warranty?
If we installed your iron fence, gate or opener, the manufacturer’s 10-year warranty and Easton’s 10-year rust-free warranty may apply (manufacturer terms apply). Minor fixes can often be handled at little or no cost; repairs that need parts or extra labor may carry a charge.
