Fence Repair in Four Oaks & the Carolinas
A damaged fence is more than an eyesore. It is a gap in your security, a risk to pets and
kids, and a problem that gets worse and more expensive the longer it waits. Southern Built
Fence Co repairs wood, vinyl, aluminum, chain link, and farm fencing across Johnston County
and the surrounding Carolina towns. Whether a storm took down a section, posts have rotted at
the base, or a gate no longer latches, we will assess it honestly and tell you whether a
repair or a replacement is the smarter spend. Call (910) 786-1243 for a free estimate.
Fence problems we fix
Leaning or fallen posts — the most common failure, usually from rot at the concrete line or storm wind load
Storm and fallen-tree damage — we handle insurance-claim documentation if you need it
Rotted or split wood pickets and rails — matched to your existing fence where possible
Sagging or dragging gates — re-hanging, hardware replacement, and post reset
Broken or bent chain link — mesh, top rail, and tension bar repair
Cracked or loose vinyl panels and caps
Loose or damaged aluminum sections and pickets
Farm and field fence repair — wire tensioning, post replacement, gate rebuilds
Repair or replace? An honest answer
Not every damaged fence needs to be torn out. As a rule of thumb, if less than about a third
of the fence is compromised and the posts are sound, a targeted repair is the better value.
Once rot or damage is widespread, or the fence is near the end of its material lifespan,
repeated repairs cost more than a new fence over time. We will walk the line with you, show
you what we see, and give you both numbers so you can decide. We never upsell a replacement
you do not need.

In most cases, yes. Bring us a photo when you call and we will tell you honestly whether the
style and material can be matched before we start.
Do you help with insurance claims for storm damage?

What does fence repair cost?
It depends on the material, the extent of the damage, and access to the site. That is why the
estimate is free. Call (910) 786-1243 and we will give you a real number, not a guess.
