Process

How Our Gate Repair Works

  • Free On-Site Diagnosis

    We visit your property and assess the gate — post condition, hinge wear, frame integrity, and operation. Most gate problems have a clear root cause. We identify it before we quote anything.

  • Written Quote

    You receive a clear, itemized written estimate within 24–48 hours of the visit — or on the spot for straightforward repairs. What needs to be done, what it costs, no grey areas.

  • Repair Scheduled

    Most gate repairs are completed in a single day, often the same visit once the diagnosis is confirmed and materials are on hand. We'll confirm the timeline upfront.

  • Repair Completed

    We fix the root cause — not just the symptom. A gate that's sagging because of a failing post gets a new post, not just a hinge adjustment that'll fail again in six months.

  • Operation Testing & Walkthrough

    Before we leave, Sam operates the gate through its full range of motion and confirms everything works correctly. You'll see it working before we pack up.

“Sam also removed a termite infested balcony railing and built and painted a new redwood railing that was exactly what I wanted and showed great attention to detail. Like the gates and fencing, it is holding up very nicely.”

Why Choose Wood Fence& Gate for Your Gate Repair

  • We Fix the Root Cause

    A gate that sags has a reason — usually a failing post or a hinge set into soft wood. A gate that won't latch has an alignment problem, not just a hardware problem. We diagnose before we quote and fix the actual issue so the repair holds.

  • Most Repairs Completed Same Day

    Gate repairs are typically faster than fence repairs. Once we've assessed the issue, most single-gate repairs can be completed in one visit. We come prepared with common hardware and materials so we're not making two trips.

  • 20 Years of Gate Work

    Sam has been building and repairing gates across the South Bay since 2006. A sagging gate, a dragging post, a frame that's lost its square — he's seen every version of these problems and knows exactly how to address them properly.

  • Honest Assessment Every Time

    If your gate is too far gone to repair cost-effectively, we'll tell you. We'd rather recommend a replacement that serves you well than collect a repair fee on something that'll fail again in six months.

  • Fully Insured & Bonded with 1-Year Warranty

    All repair work is covered by full general liability insurance and our 1-year workmanship warranty. Documentation on request.

FAQ

Common QuestionsAbout Wood Gate Repair

How do I know if my gate needs repair or replacement?

Our free on-site diagnosis will answer that. We assess the post condition, frame integrity, hinge wear, and wood quality. If the structural bones are sound, repair is usually the right call. If the post is rotted through or the frame is beyond squaring, we'll tell you honestly that replacement makes more sense.

How much does gate repair cost?

Simple hardware repairs and adjustments are significantly less expensive than structural work requiring post replacement. We provide free, itemized written estimates so you know the cost before we touch anything. Most gate repairs fall well under the cost of a full gate replacement.

Can you repair my gate the same day you come out to look at it?

In many cases, yes. For straightforward repairs — hinge replacements, latch adjustments, minor re-hanging — we often carry the necessary hardware and can complete the repair on the same visit as the assessment. For structural work requiring materials to be ordered, we'll schedule a follow-up.

My gate is sagging and dragging on the ground. What's causing it?

The most common cause is a failing hinge post — either it's rotted at the base, leaning, or the concrete footing has shifted. Less commonly, it's a worn hinge that's no longer supporting the gate's weight. We'll identify the specific cause during the site visit.

Do you repair gates you didn't originally install?

Yes. We assess and repair wood gates regardless of who built them. Our diagnosis focuses on the current condition and what it needs — not on who installed it.

Do you repair gate hardware as well as the wood?

Yes. Hinge replacement, latch replacement, handle hardware, and drop rods are all part of our gate repair scope. We carry common hardware and can source specialty hardware as needed.
