Fence Repair FAQ for Boston Homeowners

How often should Boston homeowners get fence repair?
Given Boston's severe winters with average 48 inches of snow, most homeowners benefit from fence repair at least once a year. Ice dam prevention and removal (Dec–Mar) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Boston most need fence repair?
Victorian triple-deckers and Colonial and Cape Cod-style homes are the most common home types in Boston and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
Can a leaning fence be fixed without replacing it?
Often yes. Leaning fences are usually caused by post failure, not the fence panels themselves. Resetting or sistering the posts often restores a fence to like-new condition.
How do I know if I should repair or replace my fence?
If the posts and structure are sound, repairs make sense. If the majority of posts are rotted, the fence was cheaply built, or it's over 15–20 years old with widespread damage, replacement may be more economical.
Can you match my existing fence materials?
We stock common fence materials and can source matching boards and pickets. Aged wood may not match exactly in color, though staining after repairs can unify the appearance.
Will my homeowner's insurance cover fence damage from a storm?
Many homeowner's policies cover fence damage from storms, falling trees, and other covered perils. We can provide documentation to support your insurance claim.
