Questions

Fence repair questions

The ones this page owns — the rest live on the fencing page.

My gate drags on the ground.

Usually the hinge post or the gate frame rather than the ground. A gate that has lost its diagonal brace goes out of square under its own weight, and a hinge post with nothing bracing it leans toward the opening. Both are ordinary repairs and neither needs the fence taken apart.

Repair the run, or replace it?

Count the posts. Tired boards on posts that are solid and plumb means re-boarding the existing frame, at a fraction of a new fence. If several posts move when you push them, or the bottoms have rotted at grade, the money goes into the new fence rather than another season of this one.

Whose fence is it?

If it stands on the boundary, both of yours, and that is worth establishing before the work rather than after. Where the line is genuinely unclear the survey settles it, and checking a pin is far cheaper than moving a finished fence off a neighbour.
