Leaning Posts, Rot and Storm Damage
Fences in McKinney’s established neighborhoods often lean because posts have rotted at the ground line or worked loose in the clay soil. We straighten the fence and reset or replace failed posts in concrete, then replace broken boards, rails and pickets so the fence lines back up.
We also repair damage from North Texas storms, falling limbs and vehicles. Our leaning fence guide explains the most common causes.
Iron Fence and Gate Repair in McKinney
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.
If your gate stopped working, try the safe checks in our gate troubleshooting guide first and leave anything electrical to us.
