Placeholder ImageTools That Are Helpful for Repairing a Fence These are some of the tools you can use to help fix up your fence.

Fences are exposed to a lot of circumstances outside, and eventually, they are going to get worn down and need fixing. To help with the repair process, an assortment of handy tools will be needed. These are some of the tools you can use to help fix up your fence.

Electric Drill

Electric drills are very useful in the repair process of a fence. They help with drilling holes in your fencing, plus you can help screw different pieces together.

Post Hole-Digger or Auger

At one point or another, moving fence posts will become a necessity. When this time arrives, a post hole digger or auger will be handy because you can create new holes for your posts this way.

Digging Bar

A digging bar may be one of the most useful devices for any sort of fence repair project. This tool helps loosen up dirt around your fence posts and can also assist you in the process of removing fence posts from the ground. If that isn’t enough, it can even help tamper dirt when you are ready to do so. Digging bars are quite heavy and can be between 5 and 6 feet in length, but you’ll be glad you invested in one.

Shovel

Getting fencing posts replaced will require you to move quite a bit of dirt around. A shovel is one of the go-to tools for displacing dirt. Once you’ve finished installing new posts, you can use the shovel to put the dirt back into place.

Hammer

Have you taken notice to the fact that parts of your fence are kept together with some nails? If so, a hammer can help you out. By using a hammer, you can get old nails out of your fencing.

Pliers

Even the largest of fences are kept together with a bunch of small pieces, and these pieces can become bothersome. If you need to keep anything held in place temporarily, pliers are very handy. They clamp onto parts of your fence without you having to exert any effort. This frees up your hands to handle whatever needs to be done, whether it’s tightening a bolt or the knot of a rope.

Safety Goggles

While these aren’t really considered to be a “tool,” they are still needed when repairing a fence. Goggles stop flying debris from getting into your eyes. There’s no telling when something unexpected could come flying towards you. You want to be protected if such an event were to pass.

We could not be more pleased with the entire process and outcome of our experience with Albaugh & Sons. From the timely turnaround on coming out to give us an estimate, to the flexibility on adjusting our proposal, and to the quick and professional installation itself. I would highly recommend Albaugh & Sons to anyone in their area of serviceability.

So great to work with. Have had the pleasure of working with both sons who were knowledgeable and courteous. The entire process was easy from estimate to completion of my new deck. Both arrived on time, had my estimate for both deck and basement remodel in a couple of days. Danny, the project manager arrived on time and explained the plans, the work crew were amazing. Old deck demolished and beautiful new composite in its place in less than 2 days. Tiffany, the office manager is prompt in responding to all emails with courteous knowledgeable answers. They make you feel like you are their only customer. Look forward to working with them for my basement remodel. I 100% recommend this company.

I had a beautiful deck built almost 2 years ago. I called yesterday about a few items that have come apart such as the pvc outside corners on the rim/ band board etc. The company was very responsive and ready and eager to help. Because of this, they have made a customer for life! Not only will you get an amazing product, but it appears you get a lifetime of amazing customer service!! 100 out of 5 stars!

We needed a fence as fast as possible for 5 rescue dogs that we took on. Albaugh and Sons was able to provide a great quote and a speedy installation. My wife and I love the new fence. It has literally improved our day to day lives by being able to let the dogs run free in the back. The materials were perfect and high quality. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

I hired Albaugh and Sons to tear out our old deck and replace it with a new composite deck/ screened porch. The front office was a pleasure to deal with and kept my wife and I informed on everything. The crew did an amazing job every step of the way. I was especially impressed with their finish work. The attention to detail was impressive! What I also liked Albaugh and Sons is they had a project manager (Danny) who would occasionally pop over and answer questions and would also keep me updated on progress. I would highly recommend hiring Albaugh and Sons for any of your fence/ deck / home improvement needs.

We are very pleased with the work done by Albaugh and sons. We had them replace our side porch and they did excellent work and built it to our request. Also had them install a three tier rail fence around our property. It is excellent and looks great. We thank Danny and his deck crew and George and his fence crew for their excellent work. I recommend them for any projects you need done. Thank you very much!!
