Leaning posts, wind-snapped boards, a gate that won't latch — most Burlington fences don't need replacing, they need repairing properly. We're based on North Service Road in Burlington, so repair crews are minutes away, not across the GTA.
Burlington is hard on fences: heavy clay soil holds water around posts, freeze-thaw cycles heave them out of plumb, and wind coming off Lake Ontario works loose boards free every winter. After 19+ years repairing fences here, we've seen every version of it — and we'll tell you honestly when a repair will hold and when you'd be wasting money patching a fence that's at end of life.
We repair wood, vinyl, and chain-link fences: replacing rotted or heaved posts (set below the frost line so it doesn't happen again), swapping damaged boards and panels to match the existing fence, re-hanging sagging gates, and straightening fence lines after storms.
Our shop is on North Service Road — fast scheduling and same-week repairs across Burlington, Aldershot, and Millcroft.
We quote the repair that actually solves the problem. If the fence is beyond saving, we'll say so and price a replacement — your call.
Replacement posts are set below the frost line in properly drained footings, so Burlington's clay soil and freeze-thaw don't undo the repair.
Every repair is backed by the same 3-year workmanship warranty as our full installations.
Common questions from Burlington homeowners.
Small repairs like replacing a few boards or re-hanging a gate typically run $150–$500. Replacing leaning or rotted posts usually costs $250–$450 per post depending on access and footing condition. Storm-damage repairs spanning several sections are quoted on-site — estimates are free and we give fixed pricing before any work starts.
As a rule of thumb: if the posts are sound and less than a third of the boards are damaged, repair is worth it. If most posts are moving, the rails are rotted, or the fence is 20+ years old, replacement is usually cheaper than repeated repairs. We assess it honestly at the free estimate — repairs are good business for us, so we have no reason to push a replacement you don't need.
For safety issues — a fence section down, a pool enclosure breached, a gate that won't secure — we prioritize scheduling and can usually get a Burlington crew out within days. Call (647) 495-4151 and mention it's storm damage.
Two reasons: clay soil that holds water around the post, and freeze-thaw cycles that grip and lift the footing each winter. Posts set in shallow or undrained footings will lean within a few seasons. When we replace a post we dig below the frost line and use footings that shed water, which is why our repairs come with a 3-year warranty.
