When to Call the Pros
Structural Failure: If more than 20% of your posts are wobbly, the "skeleton" has failed.
Extensive Rot: If the bottom rails are soft to the touch, the fence is no longer secure.
HOA Violations: Old, graying fences can lead to fines in communities like The Woodlands.
Changing Needs: If you've added a pool or a new pet, your old fence might not be sufficient.
Curb Appeal: A new fence offers one of the highest ROIs for home resale value.
