Most fence problems start at the posts
Fence repair in Eden Prairie almost always comes back to the posts. Frost pushes shallow posts up and out of line, damp soil along wooded lot lines rots them at grade, and a gate that dragged a little last fall sags further every winter. We reset or replace the failing posts first, then fix the sections and gate hardware they carry, or build a new cedar or vinyl fence when the old one is past saving. Call (952) 563-8484 for an estimate, backed by our one-year written guarantee.
A lot of backyards in Eden Prairie, Chanhassen and Minnetonka back up to wetlands, creeks or tree lines, where the soil stays damp for most of the year and fence posts see far more moisture than the ones near the street. Those runs are where wood posts fail first, and where we recommend better post protection, or vinyl.
Fences also come with rules. Many neighborhoods across the southwest suburbs have homeowners association guidelines for height, style and color, and every city has its own fence requirements. We build to them.
Before you call
Signs your fence needs work
Leaning sections
A section that leans has almost always lost its post. Pushing it back without fixing the post only lasts until the next frost.
A gate that drags or will not latch
Gates sag when the hinge post leans or the frame racks out of square. Both are fixable without replacing the fence.
Soft or rotted posts at the ground
Push on each post at the base. Movement, a soft feel or dark, crumbling wood at grade means rot.
Broken or missing pickets
Storm damage and snowplow strikes knock out pickets and boards, which can be replaced to match.
Graying and splitting wood
Unprotected cedar weathers gray and splits over time. Cleaning and staining slows it down.
Fix the posts and the fence fixes itself

Materials
Cedar, pressure-treated or vinyl
Cedar
The most common fence wood here. It resists rot better than pine, looks warm when new, and weathers to silver unless it is stained. Privacy, shadowbox, picket and lattice-top styles.
Pressure-treated posts
Often used for posts under cedar boards because treated lumber holds up better in the ground.
Vinyl
Costs more up front but does not rot, warp or need staining, which matters along wet lot lines and for owners who want a fence they can ignore.
Cost
What affects the cost of fence work
Repair versus replace
Resetting a few posts and replacing a section costs a fraction of a new fence.
Length and height
Longer runs and taller privacy fences take more posts, boards and labor.
Material and style
Picket and shadowbox styles use different amounts of material, and vinyl costs more than cedar.
Gates and grade
Each gate adds hardware and labor, and sloped yards take stepped sections or racked panels.
