We fix leaning posts, storm-snapped rails, warped boards, cracked vinyl and gates that sag. Our crew works out of Greece, so Brighton is close to home for us. If your fence is past saving, we also provide fence installation and services in Brighton for a full rebuild.
Most fence trouble in Brighton starts underground. The dominant clay loam soil swells as it freezes, and with 50 or more freeze-thaw cycles a year, posts set too shallow get jacked upward until the line wanders. Code calls for footings 42 to 48 inches deep. Damp ground near Allens Creek softens wood at grade. Snow that sits from Christmas into March loads rails for weeks, and road salt from Clover Street and East Avenue eats at hinges and latches. Across Monroe County the typical home was built between 1955 and 1975, so many fences in the 14610 and 14618 ZIP codes are aging out.
Our Brighton repair work usually falls into five groups.
We match new parts to your current fence as closely as possible.
Ice storm season runs from December through March, and a heavy coat of ice can bring down limbs onto fences anywhere from Westfall to Ambassador. Once the storm passes, check for downed power lines before walking the yard. Photograph the damage from a few angles, then pull any sharp or loose pieces away from walkways. Keep dogs leashed until the gap is closed. Wind gusts can also loosen posts that look fine at first, so push gently along the line to find weak spots.
