🔧 DIY Tips
Fixing a fence yourself? Here's what works:
🔧 What you'll need
- Replacement panels (measure first)
- U-nails or panel clips
- Hammer or nail gun
- Spirit level
- Help for heavy panels
📐 Repair tips
- Check posts are solid first
- Measure gap before buying
- Standard panels are 6ft x 6ft
- Gravel boards protect bottom
- Work with the wind, not against
⚠️ Important points
- Fence panels are heavy - get help
- Rotten posts need replacing, not propping
- Wind catches panels like sails
- Temporary bracing helps while working
💡 Pro trick: After storms, fences often just pop out of clips. Check if you can simply slot the panel back in before assuming it needs replacement.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you come today?
Usually yes - we understand escaped pets and lost privacy are urgent. Fence emergencies get priority, especially if dogs or children are involved.
What if a panel is completely destroyed?
We can replace individual panels same day with standard sizes. Custom or unusual panels may need ordering, but we'll secure the gap temporarily.
My fence blew into the neighbour's garden - help?
We'll retrieve it if possible, assess whether it's reusable, and repair or replace as needed. Accidents happen in storms.
Is it worth repairing or should I replace?
We'll advise honestly. If one panel went in a generally sound fence, repair makes sense. If the whole fence is rotting, a storm just revealed a bigger problem.
