Gretna's growth along Highway 370 and Highway 6 — Standing Stone and the subdivisions spreading around it — means a lot of young fences on open lots, and open lots mean wind. Newer fences here fail early when posts were set shallow or without enough concrete, and the first big storm finds every shortcut. We repair fences across Gretna: re-setting posts the right way, rebuilding blown-down sections, and fixing the gates that new-home fences seem to outgrow in their first few years.
Fence Repairs We Do in Gretna
Storm damage repair
Fallen sections, snapped posts, and panels torn loose by Nebraska wind. We secure the yard, salvage what is still sound, and rebuild the failed sections so the fence is whole again.
Leaning post straightening
Freeze-thaw heave and shallow original footings work posts loose every winter. We re-set posts deep and plumb in proper concrete footings, then straighten and re-fasten the run.
Rot, broken boards & panel replacement
Moisture and age take the bottom rails and post bases first. We cut out the rot, replace boards, rails, cracked vinyl panels, or bent chain link, and match the existing fence as closely as materials allow.
Gate repair
Sagging gates, failed hinges, and latches that no longer catch. We re-hang gates on solid posts with hardware sized for the gate — see our gate installation in Gretna, NE page if the gate itself needs replacing.
Young Fences, Open Lots, and Storm Repairs in Gretna
The most common Gretna repair is a fence that is only a few years old but already leaning. The fix is not shimming it straight — it is pulling the failed posts, digging to proper depth, and re-setting them in concrete footings that can hold a tall privacy fence against open-country wind. Done once, done right.
Gretna lots are bigger, which means longer runs and more material in the air when a section comes down. We keep storm repairs scoped tightly: salvage the pickets and rails that are still good, replace what is broken, and get the yard enclosed again for the dog without selling you a whole new fence.
Repair or replace? An honest answer.
If the posts are sound and the damage is in sections, rails, or one gate, repair almost always wins — fence repair in Gretna, NE starts at $300, a fraction of a new fence. If posts are rotting through across the whole run, we will say so and quote a replacement from our fence installation in Gretna, NE page so you can compare both paths with real numbers.
