Why fence post repair matters in Havant

What Havant weather does to posts

Gardens near Langstone Harbour and on Hayling Island take a lot of salt wind, which is hard on timber panels and fixings. Inland estates often still have the original timber posts, which tend to rot at the base after a few wet winters.

Posts for every kind of Havant garden

We replace like-for-like or upgrade timber to concrete, whichever suits the fence. Havant borough mixes the old town around the railway and shopping centre with large post-war estates at Leigh Park and West Leigh, bigger family homes through Waterlooville, Cowplain and Purbrook, harbour-side streets in Emsworth and Langstone, and the island villages on Hayling.

Getting posts in and out

Estate houses usually have a side gate. Some terraces in the older parts of Havant and Emsworth only have access through the house, and Hayling jobs need a bit more travel time across the bridge, so we allow for that when we book you in.

Our fence post repair process

  1. 1

    Photos & measurements

    Tell us how many posts, whether they're timber or concrete, and the fence height.

  2. 2

    Remove panels & old post

    We carefully lift out the panels either side and dig out the old post and footing.

  3. 3

    Set the new post

    The new timber or concrete post is set in concrete, lined up and levelled with its neighbours.

  4. 4

    Refit & tidy

    Panels and gravel boards go back in, and we clear up and take away the old post.

Is fence post repair right for your fence?

It usually suits when:

  • A post leans or rocks when you push the fence
  • A timber post is soft, split or rotten at the base
  • A concrete post has cracked or snapped
  • Panels have dropped out because the post has moved

When something else is better:

If most posts along the run have gone, it's usually better value to replace the fence rather than chase one post at a time. We'll say so if that's the case.
