Why Choose a Handyman Over a Fence Company?
Why homeowners call us for fence repairs (not replacement)
Repair-first mindset. If it can be brought back to full strength, we’ll fix it—period.
- Root-cause fixes. We don’t just swap a panel; we correct the reason it failed (posts, footing, hardware, slope, wind load).
- Material-matched repairs. We source compatible profiles for vinyl rails/pickets, proper pressure-treated posts for wood, galvanized fabric for chain-link, and powder-coated components for aluminum.
- Clean work sites. No nails in your lawn, no splinters on the sidewalk, no debris left behind.
- Local expertise. We know Bayville’s sandy soils, wind off Barnegat Bay, and freeze-thaw cycles that loosen posts.
Common fence problems we fix in Bayville & Ocean County
- Leaning or heaved posts (rot, undersized concrete, shallow set, poor drainage)
- Cracked/broken vinyl rails or pickets (UV fatigue, impact)
- Sagging or binding gates (hinge/latched misalignment, out-of-square frames)
- Wind-damaged sections (panel blow-outs, rail pull-throughs)
- Rotted wood posts/rails (ground contact, sprinkler overspray)
- Rusty chain-link fabric, top rails, or bent line posts
- Aluminum fence panel shifts near pools from frost heave
- Hardware failures: hinges, latches, brackets, tension bands, caps
Our repair process
(no nonsense, no surprises)
- On-site assessment (free). We check the entire run, not just the obvious break.
- Straightforward quote. Line-item pricing so you can see parts, labor, and optional add-ons.
- Secure & stabilize. We brace unsafe sections right away if needed.
- Permanent fix. Posts set to proper depth (typically 30–36" depending on fence/wind exposure), correct concrete mix/soak, plumb and level, and torque-spec’d hardware.
- Cleanup & walkthrough. You inspect with us; we show exactly what was done and how to maintain it.
- Typical turnaround: Small repairs 1–3 hours; multi-section/storm work usually same or next day scheduling.

Bayville, NJ: Local conditions we build for
- Sandy soils = easy to shift → we set posts deeper with proper bell-shaped footings.
- Coastal winds off Barnegat Bay → reinforced rails/hardware where needed.
- Freeze-thaw in winter → drainage and set depth matter to prevent heave.
- Sprinkler and salt exposure → we spec corrosion-resistant fasteners and seal wood cuts.
Storm & insurance repairs
- We document damage with photos, note materials and linear feet, and can provide an insurance-friendly estimate. If you’re not sure what your policy covers, we’ll outline the talking points to ask your carrier.
Maintenance add-ons that actually help
- Gate tune-ups: hinge shims, latch alignment, striker adjustments
- Wood life extension: post wraps/caps, end-grain sealing, recommended stain cycles
- Vinyl reinforcement: upgraded brackets/screws on wind-load points
- Chain-link tensioning: new tension bars/bands, proper bottom tie-offs to keep pets in
FAQs
Do you repair small jobs or one broken panel?
Yes. We’re repair-first. If it’s fixable and safe, we’ll repair it—even a single rail.
Can you match my vinyl profile?
Often. If the exact profile is discontinued, we propose
best-fit options or a clean transitional section that doesn’t look patched.
How long should a new post set cure?
Most mixes set fast; we brace and build to spec so gates function same day. Full cure strength reaches over 24–48 hours.
What if the fence keeps leaning every spring?
That’s usually shallow depth, poor drainage, or frost heave. We reset deeper, improve drainage, and, if needed, widen footings.
Do you work near pools and meet code?
Yes—self-closing, self-latching gates, proper latch heights and picket spacing. We’ll flag any code issues during the estimate.
Do you offer repairs outside Bayville?
Yes—anywhere in
Ocean County (Bayville, Beachwood, Ocean Gate, Pine Beach, Forked River, Lanoka Harbor, Toms River, Lacey, Waretown, Barnegat, Manahawkin, Brick & nearby).
