Common Fencing Repair Issues

Most Common Issues

If you are facing issues with your fence, there are several ways our local Aberdeen team can solve the most common ones. We’re regularly asked to repair fencing that has become weak or fallen down and the most common reasons that we are hired for include:

Installing new wooden and concrete fence posts

Concrete posts need to be secured in the ground with a mixture of ballast and cement or post mix concrete. The hole needs to be dug to the correct depth, allowing for the height of the fence panel and the gravel board and at 3 x the diameter of the post and our local team use specialist equipment to ensure the process is completely accurately and effectively.

Replacing rotten or damaged gravel boards

Gravel boards are either wooden, concrete or composite boards that are secured underneath  fence panels, sitting on top of the ground and their main purpose is to protect your fence against wet soil, debris, and insect damage and ultimately to increase the lifespan of your fence. Concrete gravel boards are longer-lasting than wooden ones, which are at risk of being affected by rot or decay. When this happens, to make sure this doesn't spread to the rest of your fence the affected boards should be replaced.

Cutting new fencing panels to size and fitting them

When the weather starts to improve it's often a good time to think about replacing old worn out fence panels that might have suffered from weather damage over the Autumn and Winter months.  Regardless of the size of the garden, there's a likelihood of having to use a non-standard panel to replace an existing one and our skilled, local fence repair team in Aberdeen will supply and fit bespoke panels and make your old fence look as good as new.

Replacing fence rails to increase stability

If you have a wooden fence and a railing becomes damaged, an ideal fence repair solution is to strengthen it to hold it in place by cutting a block the same width as the rail and fastening it to the posts at each end of the railing. For maximum durability, we use the right materials and tools to ensure that the support stays in place and looks good.

Fixing new fence panels or gravel boards to replace damaged ones

If your fence has panels that are damaged then the correct fence repair solution, assuming the integrity of the rest of the fence is not at risk, would be to replace them. This would start with checking the foundations of the plan, removing the remnants of the old fence and marking out where the new fence should connect to and then drilling holes to attach brackets to the foundations for attaching the wood panels. Vertical rails would then need to be inserted into the brackets and then once this is done, the fence panels would need to be attached in place.

Fitting trellis or security toppers to existing walls or fencing

Attaching trellis to the top of fences are common request to add extra height, stop people from peering over, or just simply for the design element. Although trellis is a semi-solid addition, if the fence is next to a road or footpath then planning permission will need to be applied for. Similarly, as trellis may affect your neighbours' light, we'd always advise having a chat to them first as well.

Replacing or fixing hinges and latches on garden gates
