We'll give you a straight answer. Repair usually makes sense when the damage is limited to a few posts or sections and the rest of the fence is sound. Replacement is usually the better value when:
- Wood posts are rotting or leaning all along the line, not just in one spot
- More than about a quarter of the fence is damaged
- The fence goes down in nearly every windy spring
- Your vinyl style is discontinued and panels won't match
If it's time for a new fence, see fence replacement in Lubbock.
The Repair That Fixes the Real Problem
On most older Lubbock wood fences, leaning sections trace back to wood posts that rotted at the ground. We often replace failed wood posts with galvanized steel posts set in concrete and reattach the existing rails and pickets. It costs more than propping the old post up, but it's the repair that keeps the section standing next spring.
What Does a Fence Repair Cost?
It depends on what's broken. Resetting a post or swapping a few pickets costs far less than rebuilding a section, while damage along a whole run can approach replacement. Send a description and a photo and we'll give you a free estimate.
After a Windstorm or Hailstorm
Lubbock's spring brings fronts that gust past 50 mph and storms like the May 2020 hail that dropped baseball-size stones on south-central Lubbock. If your fence takes a hit:
- Stay clear of power lines and watch for nails and sharp edges.
- Secure pets and the pool. If your fence is a pool barrier, keep kids away until it's restored.
- Photograph the damage from several angles before anything is moved.
- Save loose pickets and panels. Undamaged pieces can often go back up.
- Call for a free estimate. We put it in writing for your insurer.

Repairs by Fence Type
Wood
Rotted posts, broken rails and split pickets are the usual problems. We replace failed posts with steel, sister or replace rails, and hang new cedar pickets.
Vinyl
Panels that blow out of their rails often go right back in. Cracked panels and broken rails can be replaced when the style is available.
Iron and steel
Bent pickets and broken welds get straightened or rewelded, loose posts reset and chipped finish touched up before rust starts.
Chain link
We re-stretch sagging mesh, replace bent top rail and terminal posts, and patch damaged sections.
Fixing a Wind-Damaged Cedar Fence
Most wind damage we see in Lubbock follows the same pattern: a few wood posts in the run have rotted at the ground, the wind finds them, and a whole section folds over. Simply standing the section back up and toeing in a brace rarely lasts past the next front. Our approach:
- Check every post in the run, not just the broken one. A screwdriver pushed into the wood at ground level tells us which ones are next.
- Swap failed posts for galvanized steel set in fresh concrete.
- Reuse good pickets and rails so the repair matches and stays affordable.
- Re-hang and adjust gates in the damaged run so they latch again.
If most of the posts are going, we'll tell you plainly that a replacement is the better spend.
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can you fix my fence?
We schedule repair estimates quickly, and most repairs are done in one visit once parts are on hand. After a big wind or hail event, demand spikes, so call early.
Can you repair a fence someone else built?
Yes. We repair wood, iron, vinyl, pipe and chain link fences no matter who installed them.
Will insurance cover my wind-damaged fence?
Many policies cover fences as 'other structures,' subject to your deductible. Take photos first, then call your insurer. We provide a written estimate.
Why do Lubbock fences lean?
Mostly wood posts rotting at the ground, posts set too shallow and constant wind pressure on a solid fence. Steel posts in concrete fix all three.
Can you replace just a few posts with steel?
Yes. We can swap failed wood posts for steel one at a time and reattach your existing rails and pickets.
Do I need a permit to repair a fence?
Not for a fence 7 ft or under in Lubbock, since those are exempt from building permits.
Can you match my old cedar pickets?
New cedar will be lighter at first and weathers toward the old color over time. Staining the whole run evens it out right away.
