Fence Repair in Fort Smith, AR — All Types, All Materials

ACE Fence Company has been repairing fences throughout Fort Smith and the River Valley since 1963. We repair wood, vinyl, chain link, ornamental iron, ornamental aluminum, and composite fencing — and all gate types including manual and automatic operators. If it's a fence, we can fix it.

Fort Smith homeowners and businesses call us after severe thunderstorms, derecho events, ice storms, vehicle impacts, and gradual wear that finally crosses the line into real repair need. We diagnose accurately, give you an honest assessment (repair vs. replace), and do the work correctly so it doesn't fail again.

Common Fence Repairs We Perform in Fort Smith

• ▶
  Leaning & Fallen Posts: Reset and re-concrete posts that have shifted, leaned, or blown over. We excavate the old concrete and reset properly — not just push it back upright.
• ▶
  Rotted Post Replacement: Replace rotted wood posts with new pressure-treated or galvanized steel posts. Metal post upgrades eliminate the post-rot cycle permanently.
• ▶
  Storm Damage Repair: Emergency storm and wind damage assessment and repair throughout Fort Smith and the River Valley. Common after severe thunderstorm and derecho seasons.
• ▶
  Broken & Missing Boards: Replace individual cracked, broken, or missing fence boards matched to your existing fence material and style.
• ▶
  Sagging Gate Repair: Diagnose and fix sagging, binding, or dragging gates — typically undersized posts, worn hinges, or a missing diagonal brace in the gate frame.
• ▶
  Chain Link Repair: Patch tears, replace damaged fabric sections, fix bent rails, re-tension loose chain link, and replace bent or missing posts.
• ▶
  Ornamental Iron & Aluminum Repair: Weld broken pickets, repair damaged rails, and touch up powder-coat finish on ornamental iron and aluminum fencing.
• ▶
  Vinyl Fence Repair: Replace cracked or shattered vinyl boards and rails with matching profiles.
• ▶
  Automatic Gate Repair: Operator diagnostics and repair by Bobby, our senior gate technician. Same-day or next-day service for residential and commercial gate systems.

Storm Damage Repair After Fort Smith Severe Weather

Fort Smith and the River Valley see some of the most severe thunderstorm activity in the country. Straight-line derecho winds, supercell thunderstorms, and occasional tornadoes knock down fence sections, split rails, uproot posts, and scatter boards across yards throughout the area each spring and summer.

After a major storm event, call ACE Fence immediately at (479) 646-5306. We triage emergency situations — a downed fence creating a security gap or pet containment failure gets priority response. We can often deploy temporary solutions same-day while materials are sourced for permanent repair.

Document damage with photos before any cleanup — this is important for homeowner's or commercial property insurance claims. ACE Fence provides written repair estimates for insurance adjustment purposes.

Warning Signs Your Fence Needs Repair

• ⚠Visible post lean greater than 2 inches from plumb
• ⚠Wood posts that feel soft or spongy at ground level (rot)

• ⚠Gates that no longer swing, close, or latch correctly
• ⚠Significant rust or discoloration on chain link hardware

Catching fence failure early almost always means a simple repair. Waiting results in progressive structural failure that turns a $300 repair into a $3,000 replacement.
