Can you repair a fence you didn't install?

Absolutely. We repair all fence types regardless of who installed them. We'll match existing materials as closely as possible and give you an honest assessment of the overall fence condition.

How long does a fence repair take?

Most repairs are completed same-day. Larger projects like resetting multiple posts or replacing full sections may take 2 days. We'll give you a clear timeline with your estimate.

Do you need to come out to give a repair estimate?

Usually not. Three photos — one wide, one close on the worst part, one of the post at the ground — and Dave can price most repairs in about sixty seconds. Anything under roughly $1,500 gets quoted from the pictures; if the photos leave a real question, a short video call is the next step, not a truck.

How far will you travel for a fence repair?

Repairs run within 20 miles of Lafayette. From 20 to 30 miles there's a $95 trip surcharge on top of the $350 minimum. Past 30 miles we'll usually pass on a small repair — a $600 job can't carry a 90-minute drive — but new fence installs go a lot farther.

Local knowledge

Fence Repair in Crawfordsville, specifically.

Soil & terrain

Heavy clay soil throughout most of Montgomery County. Clay retains moisture and expands, creating extra pressure on fence posts — we drive posts deeper here to prevent tilting.

For fence repair: Nine out of ten leaning fences here are failed concrete-set posts that clay heave pushed out of plumb — not broken panels. We replace the bad posts with driven steel so the same section doesn't fail twice.

Permits & rules

Crawfordsville requires building permits for fences within city limits. Montgomery County has separate regulations for rural properties. The city planning office at (765) 364-5152 handles residential fence permits.

For fence repair: Like-for-like repairs almost never need a permit. If a storm takes out enough footage that the job is effectively a rebuild, we'll flag whether the city wants paperwork before we start.

HOA requirements

Crawfordsville's east side has HOAs like Hawkview, Big Four Crossing, Diamond Ridge, Twin Oaks, and Ashton Walk. The historic district near Wabash College prefers natural wood and wrought-iron style fences over vinyl. We know the rules and check before every project to meet each HOA's guidelines.

For fence repair: Repairs that match the existing approved fence sail through HOA review. If your fence pre-dates the covenants, a major rebuild can trigger the current rules — we check before quoting so there are no surprises.

Indiana weather

Crawfordsville sits on slightly higher ground than the Wabash valley towns, getting more ice storms in winter. We recommend metal hardware over plastic clips for panel attachment in ice-prone areas.

For fence repair: Spring is repair season — freeze-thaw and March wind expose every weak post at once. Storm-damage jobs queue fast; three photos through the repair form get you a same-day read on the fix, and every visit starts at $350.

Repair radius: Crawfordsville is about 26 miles from Lafayette. Repairs out here carry the $95 trip surcharge on top of the $350 minimum.
