Repairs That Extend What You Already Have

Fence repair and property enhancement services in Thibodaux and surrounding cities, including panel replacement, gate realignment, and masonry fixes related to fencing.

When a fence panel sags, a gate drags on the ground, or a post leans after a storm in Thibodaux and surrounding parishes, repair work restores function without replacing the entire fence line. Small fixes now prevent larger problems later, especially when posts start to rot or gate hardware loosens and wears through the wood.

Esteve's Fence Company, LLC handles fence panel replacement, post straightening, gate realignment, and hardware replacement in Thibodaux and surrounding cities, and also repairs concrete footings or brick posts that shift or crack over time. The goal is to bring the fence back to its original condition or improve it with upgraded materials and hardware.

If you need repairs or upgrades for your fence or gate in Thibodaux and surrounding cities, reach out to schedule an inspection and get a repair estimate.

What gets repaired and how it changes

Repairs begin with inspecting the damaged section to determine whether the post, panel, or hardware is the cause in Thibodaux and surrounding parishes. Rotted posts are removed and replaced with new ones set in fresh concrete, and bent or broken panels are swapped out with matching materials.

After the repair, the fence stands straight, gates swing without scraping, and latches engage without force. Panels no longer gap at the bottom or lean away from the posts, and the fence line looks consistent from end to end.

Additional work can include painting or staining repaired sections to match the rest of the fence, replacing outdated hardware with rust-resistant hinges and latches, or adding gravel around posts to improve drainage and slow rot. The service covers repairs directly related to the fence structure, but does not include landscaping, grading, or removal of vegetation unless it interferes with access to the damaged area.

Questions about repairs and improvements

Homeowners in Thibodaux and surrounding parishes typically ask whether repairs last as long as new installations, what causes posts to lean, and whether mismatched materials are noticeable after a panel is replaced.

How long do fence repairs last?
Repairs using the same materials and methods as the original installation should last as long as the rest of the fence, especially if the underlying issue such as drainage or rot is addressed. Upgraded hardware or treated posts can extend the life of the repair.
What causes fence posts to lean or rot?

Posts lean when the footing is too shallow or the soil shifts, and they rot when water collects around the base or the wood is not treated. Replacing the post with a deeper footing and adding gravel for drainage prevents the problem from recurring in Thibodaux and surrounding parishes.

Will a replacement panel match the rest of my fence?
Replacement panels are matched to the existing fence style, height, and spacing. If the original material is no longer available, a close match is sourced, though weathering may make new panels look slightly different until they age.
Can gates be adjusted instead of replaced?
Yes, most gates can be realigned by tightening hinges, shimming the frame, or adjusting the latch position. If the gate is sagging due to a weak frame or worn hardware, reinforcement or replacement parts may be needed.
Can you repair brick or concrete related to fencing?

Yes, cracked or leaning brick posts can be repaired by repointing mortar joints, resetting caps, or reinforcing the footing. Concrete pads under gates can also be patched or replaced if they have settled or cracked in Thibodaux and surrounding cities.
