Should I Repair Or Replace My Fence? The truth is that not all cases of fence and gate damage can be repaired. In some cases, it will be simpler and more cost-effective to simply replace the entire fence instead of trying to fix the damages. For instance, if the damage to your fence occurs as a result of a natural disaster leading to extensive damage, you might need to get the fence replaced entirely. Similarly, if the damage has been left to linger too long before repair, it may lead to structural weakness which may require you to change the fence to a new one. Generally, deciding between having your fence repaired or replaced with a new one comes down to an analysis of the costs and benefits of such a decision. If the benefits of a replacement outweigh the potential costs or if you may end up spending more on recurrent repairs, in the long run, you may consider changing your fence rather than patch It temporarily. Types Of Fence Damage Damages to your fencing unit can be either long-term or short-term. Short term damages are those type of damages that occur and become obvious within a short time. Damages like this are caused by storms and other natural disasters, a violent impact like toppling trees, utility poles, car accidents, and other factors that cause instant damage to your fence. Long-term damages on the other hand occur due to age, exposure to the elements, and other similar factors. These type of damage are less noticeable and may linger on for several years gradually wearing the fence out until complete collapse occur. Whatever the type and cause of damage, getting it fixed as soon as it is discovered can restore your fence and prevent higher costs later. |
