PROFESSIONAL FENCE REPAIR SERVICES IN SUSSEX AND SURREY
A damaged fence does not always need to be completely replaced. In many cases, individual posts, panels and supporting components can be repaired or replaced to restore stability and appearance.
BROKEN AND ROTTEN FENCE POST REPAIRS
Fence posts are particularly vulnerable to deterioration at ground level, where moisture can cause timber to weaken over time.
Strong winds can also place considerable pressure on posts, especially where fencing is exposed.
We undertake suitable fence post repairs and replacements, including removal of damaged posts and installation of replacement supports where required.
DAMAGED FENCE PANEL REPLACEMENT
Fence panels can become damaged through strong winds, impact, ageing or deterioration of the timber.
Where the existing posts and framework remain suitable, replacing individual damaged panels can be a practical alternative to replacing an entire fence.
We can discuss suitable replacement panels to match the existing fencing as closely as possible.
LOOSE AND LEANING FENCE REPAIRS
Fences may begin to lean when posts deteriorate, foundations become unstable or supporting fixings fail.
We can assess the affected sections and discuss suitable repairs, including replacing damaged supports and securing loose components.
FENCE RAIL AND ARRIS RAIL REPAIRS
Traditional closeboard fencing relies on horizontal rails to support the vertical boards.
When rails become rotten or damaged, individual fence boards may loosen or fall away.
We undertake suitable repairs and replacement of damaged rails and supporting timber.
FENCE BOARD AND FEATHER EDGE REPAIRS
Individual fence boards can split, warp or become detached over time.
Where practical, we can replace damaged boards and secure loose sections to restore the appearance and function of the fence.
FENCE POST REPLACEMENT AND STRUCTURAL FENCING REPAIRS
Fence posts provide the main structural support for most garden fencing systems.
Where posts have failed, simply replacing the fence panel may not resolve the underlying problem.
TIMBER FENCE POST REPLACEMENT
We undertake suitable replacement of rotten, broken or unstable timber fence posts.
The appropriate installation method depends on ground conditions, fence height and the existing construction.
CONCRETE FENCE POST REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENT
Concrete fence posts are durable but can crack, move or become damaged through impact or ground movement.
Where appropriate, we can discuss replacement of defective concrete posts and associated components.
FENCE POST SUPPORT AND STABILISATION
Some fencing problems may be addressed through suitable support repairs, although severely damaged or rotten posts generally require replacement.
We assess the condition of the existing structure before recommending the most practical approach.
COMPLETE FENCING REPLACEMENT AND NEW FENCE SECTIONS
Some fences have deteriorated beyond practical repair, particularly where several posts, rails and panels are damaged.
In these circumstances, replacing larger sections or installing new fencing may provide a more durable solution.
Depending on the property and requirements, work may include:
- Removal of damaged fencing
- Replacement timber or concrete fence posts
- Installation of new fence panels
- Closeboard and feather edge fencing
- Replacement rails and supporting framework
- Fence gravel boards
- Fence capping and finishing components
- Garden boundary fencing repairs
We can discuss suitable materials and fencing styles according to the existing boundary, exposure and intended use.
PROFESSIONAL TIMBER DECKING REPAIRS
Timber decking can provide an attractive and practical outdoor space, but regular exposure to moisture and weather can lead to deterioration.
Loose boards, rotten timber and unstable supporting structures should be addressed before the decking becomes unsafe.
ROTTEN DECKING BOARD REPLACEMENT
Decking boards can deteriorate through prolonged moisture exposure, poor drainage or lack of maintenance.
We undertake suitable replacement of rotten or damaged decking boards where the supporting structure remains sound.
LOOSE AND DAMAGED DECKING BOARD REPAIRS
Decking boards may become loose when fixings corrode, timber splits or supporting joists deteriorate.
We can assess the affected area and discuss suitable repairs, including replacing defective fixings and damaged boards.
DECKING JOIST AND FRAMEWORK REPAIRS
The supporting framework is an essential part of a decking structure.
Where joists or other supporting timbers have deteriorated, replacing surface boards alone may not resolve the problem.
We undertake suitable repairs to accessible decking frameworks, including replacement of damaged supporting timber where practical.
UNEVEN AND UNSTABLE DECKING REPAIRS
Decking may become uneven through ground movement, failed supports or deterioration of the substructure.
We can assess the affected area and discuss suitable repairs to restore stability.
DECKING STEP AND HANDRAIL REPAIRS
Damaged decking steps and loose handrails can create safety concerns.
We undertake suitable repairs and replacement of defective timber steps, balustrades and handrail components.
COMPOSITE DECKING REPAIRS
Composite decking is designed to provide a lower-maintenance alternative to traditional timber boards.
However, composite decking can still suffer from damaged boards, loose fixings, movement and problems with the supporting framework.
DAMAGED COMPOSITE DECKING BOARD REPLACEMENT
Where composite decking boards are cracked, damaged or distorted, replacement may be necessary.
We can discuss suitable repairs depending on the board profile, fixing system and availability of compatible materials.
LOOSE COMPOSITE DECKING REPAIRS
Some composite decking systems use concealed clips and specialist fixings.
Where boards become loose, the original fixing arrangement should be considered before undertaking repairs.
COMPOSITE DECKING FRAMEWORK REPAIRS
Although composite boards are designed for durability, the supporting framework may still deteriorate.
We can assess accessible supporting structures and discuss suitable repairs where required.
DECKING CLEANING AND RESTORATION
At The Jet Wash Fella, decking repair work can be combined with professional exterior cleaning and restoration.
Timber decking can become slippery when algae, moss and organic growth accumulate on the surface.
PROFESSIONAL TIMBER DECKING CLEANING
We provide suitable cleaning treatments for timber decking, taking care to avoid unnecessarily aggressive pressure that could damage the wood fibres.
SLIPPERY DECKING TREATMENT
Algae and organic growth can make decking particularly slippery during wet weather.
Appropriate cleaning can help remove surface contamination, although ongoing maintenance may be required to manage regrowth.
DECKING STAINING AND PROTECTIVE TREATMENTS
Where suitable, timber decking can benefit from appropriate protective finishes after cleaning and drying.
The choice of treatment depends on the timber condition, previous coatings and intended appearance.
COMBINING DECKING REPAIRS WITH CLEANING
A decking restoration project may involve replacing rotten boards, securing loose fixings, cleaning the surface and applying a suitable finish.
We can discuss a practical sequence of work according to the condition of the decking.
GARDEN TIMBERWORK AND EXTERIOR WOOD REPAIRS
Alongside fencing and decking, we welcome enquiries about suitable repairs to other exterior timber features.
These may include:
- Timber garden gates
- Gate posts and hinges
- Wooden garden steps
- Timber handrails
- Garden screening
- Pergola components
- Exterior timber trims
- Other accessible garden timber structures
The suitability of repair depends on the condition and construction of the existing timberwork.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT FENCING AND DECKING REPAIRS
CAN YOU REPAIR A FENCE WITHOUT REPLACING THE WHOLE THING?
Yes. Many damaged fences can be repaired by replacing individual posts, panels, rails or boards, provided the surrounding structure remains in reasonable condition.
For example, if strong winds have damaged one fence panel but the supporting posts remain secure, replacing the panel may be sufficient. However, where several posts have rotted or the fence has become unstable along a substantial length, more extensive repairs or replacement may be necessary. We assess the visible condition of the fencing before discussing the most practical solution.
CAN YOU REPLACE A BROKEN FENCE POST?
Yes. We undertake suitable replacement of broken, rotten and unstable fence posts, including timber and appropriate concrete post systems.
Fence posts commonly fail at ground level because of moisture exposure, deterioration or movement in the surrounding ground. The repair method depends on the existing fence construction, ground conditions and whether adjacent panels and rails remain usable. Replacing the failed support properly is important because simply securing the fence to a badly deteriorated post may not provide a lasting repair.
HOW MUCH DOES FENCE REPAIR COST IN SUSSEX AND SURREY?
Fence repair costs depend on the type of fencing, the extent of damage, materials required, access conditions and whether existing components can be reused.
Replacing one damaged panel will generally cost less than removing and rebuilding several sections of fencing. Broken posts can involve additional work because the old foundations may need to be removed or modified. Photographs can help with an initial assessment, but an on-site inspection may be necessary before providing an accurate quotation.
CAN YOU REPAIR ROTTEN DECKING WITHOUT REPLACING THE ENTIRE DECK?
Yes. If the supporting structure remains sound, it may be possible to replace individual rotten boards and repair damaged fixings without rebuilding the whole deck.
However, the condition of the joists, posts and supporting framework is particularly important. Timber can deteriorate beneath the visible surface, especially where moisture is trapped. If the framework has become extensively rotten or unstable, replacing only the decking boards may not resolve the underlying safety problem.
DO YOU REPAIR COMPOSITE DECKING?
Yes. We welcome enquiries about damaged composite decking boards, loose fixings and problems with supporting frameworks.
Composite decking systems vary between manufacturers, and some use specialist clips, board profiles and fixing arrangements. The availability of compatible replacement materials can affect the repair options. Where the supporting structure is damaged, this should be addressed before replacement boards are installed.
CAN YOU REPAIR LOOSE OR UNSAFE DECKING STEPS?
Yes. We undertake suitable repairs to timber decking steps, supporting components and handrails where practical.
Loose steps can result from deteriorated timber, failed fixings or movement in the supporting framework. Because steps and handrails are important safety features, the cause of the movement should be investigated rather than simply tightening visible fixings. More extensive deterioration may require replacement of the affected components.
CAN YOU CLEAN MY DECKING AFTER REPAIRING IT?
Yes. The Jet Wash Fella provides professional decking cleaning alongside suitable repair and restoration services.
For example, a decking project may involve replacing damaged boards, securing loose fixings and removing accumulated algae from the remaining surface. Timber decking requires an appropriate cleaning method because excessive pressure can damage the wood fibres. Any protective finish should only be applied once the timber is suitably prepared and dry.
WHY DOES MY DECKING BECOME SLIPPERY IN WET WEATHER?
Decking can become slippery when algae, moss and other organic growth accumulate on the surface, particularly in shaded areas that remain damp.
Regular cleaning and appropriate maintenance can help reduce surface contamination. However, slippery conditions can return if the underlying moisture and shade remain unchanged. Where decking is heavily worn, damaged or poorly drained, repairs may also be necessary to improve its condition.
DO YOU UNDERTAKE COMPLETE FENCE REPLACEMENT?
Yes. We welcome enquiries about replacing larger sections of damaged fencing where repairs are no longer practical.
Depending on the property, this may involve removing existing panels and posts, installing replacement supports, fitting new panels or constructing suitable closeboard fencing. Before work begins, the proposed fence position, existing boundaries and any relevant height or planning restrictions should be considered.
