Metal Gate Repair in Tujunga
What to know before you book metal gate repair in Tujunga
How quickly can you come out?
For a gate that will not close or lock we try to get there the same or next day. It is a security problem, not just an inconvenience.
What Metal Gate Repair costs in Tujunga
We quote after seeing the property, always. Anyone giving you a firm figure without knowing your ground is guessing, and that guess is rarely in your favour once they arrive.
Price comes down to size, material, access and what has to come out first. A straight run on flat ground with a driveway beside it is quick. The same job down a narrow side return with a hedge in the way is not.
Why has my gate stopped latching?
Almost always the post has moved, dropping the far edge of the leaf so the latch and keeper no longer line up. Replacing hardware on a post that has tilted buys you about a month.
Can you repair just one section?
Usually, yes. That is one of the advantages of a fence over a panel system — boards, rails and individual posts can be replaced without touching the rest of the run.
How we work
You get a straight answer on the day. If the job needs something we cannot do well, we will tell you that too rather than take it on and hope.
We come out and look, we tell you what we found, and you get the price in writing before anything starts. If we think replacement is better value than repair, we say so.
Do you work on gates you did not install?
Most of what we repair was put in by somebody else. We are not precious about it — we just fix what is wrong.
Will a new fence match my existing one?
We match material, spacing and finish as closely as we can. New timber next to weathered timber will not be an exact match until it has aged a season, and we will say so up front rather than after.

We quote after seeing the property, always. Anyone giving you a firm figure without knowing your ground is guessing, and that guess is rarely in your favour once they arrive.
There is no useful phone price for this. What moves the number is the length, the height, the ground conditions and whether there is an old fence or gate to remove. We look, then we put it in writing.
Choosing someone in Tujunga
A quote that is dramatically cheaper than the others has the saving hidden somewhere you cannot see, and on a fence that is almost always the footings or the timber grade.
Ask how deep the post holes are going and how much concrete goes in each one. Ask what fixings they are using. Those two answers tell you whether someone is thinking about year ten or Friday afternoon.
