Secure your property and reclaim your privacy. From minor gate adjustments to full yard enclosures, we build fences that last.
A fence is more than a boundary—it's a critical component of your home's curb appeal and security. In Athens, GA, wood fences face constant pressure from moisture, shifting soil, and local wildlife. At Smart Home Repair, we specialize in building and maintaining fences that can withstand the elements while providing the privacy your family deserves.
We don't just "set posts." We ensure every vertical is plumb, every gate is reinforced against sagging, and every picket is secured with high-grade galvanized fasteners. Serving Five Points, Normaltown, and Watkinsville with professional craftsmanship.
Traditional dog-ear or modern horizontal plank styles. We use 100% pressure-treated pine or cedar to ensure maximum resistance to rot and termites.
The first item to fail on any fence. We fix sagging gates, install heavy-duty latches, and add structural "anti-sag" bracing to ensure smooth operation.
Is your fence leaning during windstorms? We perform surgical post replacements, removing rotted wood and pouring new deep-set concrete footers.
For standard 6ft privacy fences, we set posts at least 24 inches deep with a concrete footer to ensure they can handle high winds without leaning.
While we specialize in wood and composite fencing, we do perform minor repairs on chain-link, including tensioning and post-straightening.
In many residential areas of Athens-Clarke County, a permit isn't required for a standard 6ft privacy fence in the backyard, but there are restrictions for front yards and corner lots. We'll help you check your specific zoning rules.
Whether you need a full installation or a single post replaced, Smart Home Repair delivers professional results with a 5-year warranty.
