Looking for Malibu Wood Fence Repair? Timber gives plenty of warning before it goes. Push a post and you will know more about your fence than any photograph will tell you. We serve Malibu and the surrounding neighborhoods.
A fence that has started to lean is telling you the ground has let go of a post. Everything else follows from that.
Most of our work is section repair: one or two posts, a run of rails, a handful of boards, and the fence is good again.
If replacement genuinely is the better value we will say so, with the reasoning rather than just a bigger number.
Split, cupped or rotted boards can be swapped individually. That is the advantage timber has over every panel system and the reason a tired fence is rarely a write-off.
Bowed rails usually mean the span is too long or the fixings have worked loose. We add support rather than putting the same board back on the same rail.
Wind damage tends to show up after the ground has softened. The fence was weakening quietly for months and one gust finished it.
We straighten what can be straightened, replace what cannot, and tell you honestly which posts are likely to be next so you are not calling again in six months.
Nearly every timber fence gives up at the post, in the few inches either side of the soil line where the wood is neither properly wet nor properly dry.
We break out the old footing, reset deeper in fresh concrete with gravel at the base so water drains away, and let it cure before anything hangs on it.
Automatic gates around Malibu combine a physical gate with mechanical and electrical equipment. When one stops working the problem is not necessarily the gate itself — it may be the operator, motor, controls, sensors, remotes, safety equipment or wiring.
Concrete with no drainage holds water against the post instead of keeping it out.
Contained to the affected section in most cases, and repairable without a full rebuild.
Electroplated screws bleed rust down the boards. We replace with stainless or hot-dipped.
Carry far more than a line post and fail sooner, which is why the gate goes first.
Cosmetic at first and structural eventually. Staining is what buys the years back.
Every street in Malibu has its own conditions: irrigation, shade, slope and how exposed the run is to the wind.
We look at what is actually happening on your line rather than applying the same fix to every fence.
Estimates are free and there is no obligation. If the honest answer is that repair will not last, we will say so.
Ignoring a small problem in {city} leads to bigger and more expensive issues down the road. A misaligned gate strains the operator, worn hinges cause the gate to sag, and faulty sensors create safety hazards.
We are a locally owned and operated company serving Malibu and the rest of Los Angeles County. Our technicians are trained, experienced and committed to quality workmanship.
Dependable results and long-lasting repairs you can count on. From quality parts to expert workmanship, we take pride in every job we complete in Malibu.
Sprinklers do more damage than rain. A head throwing onto the boards keeps the base permanently damp through the months it should be drying out.
Santa Ana winds are what finally takes a weakened fence down, and a solid privacy run catches every bit of it.
We cover Malibu and the surrounding communities including Westlake Village, Agoura Hills and Calabasas, so we are rarely far away when something needs looking at quickly.
Being local matters more than it sounds on wood fence repair: it is the difference between coming out this week and coming out next month.
Section repairs are priced on what has to come out and go back. A single post is a morning; a run of posts with concrete footings is a different job.
What moves the number: how many posts, whether the old footings have to be broken out, access for materials, and whether the ground is soil, clay or rock.
Add the fungi and insects that live in the top few inches of soil and you have ideal conditions for failure in one narrow band, whatever the timber looks like at eye level.
This is why a fence can look perfectly sound from the street and still be one gust from going over.
We will tell you which side of that line your fence sits on. Replacing a run with ten years left in it is not a service worth selling.
If the framing is straight and the posts are sound, almost everything else is a section repair. Boards, rails, cap and hardware all come off and go back individually.
We can, and on a visible run it is usually worth doing the whole fence so it ages evenly from the same point.
Often, yes. If the posts are sound and the framing is straight, a tired-looking fence has plenty of life left. We will tell you if it does not.
As closely as new timber can. It will read as newer for a season or two until it weathers in, and we will say so before we start rather than after.
