Fixing Gates in Augusta, Evans, Martinez & Grovetown
Why is my gate sagging?
In Augusta, the number one culprit is the Red Clay Soil. When it rains, the clay expands; when it dries, it shrinks. This causes standard 4x4 fence posts to shift and lean over time. Since the gate hangs off that post, even a 1-inch lean in the post can cause a 3-inch drop at the latch. We don't just patch the gate; we stabilize the post to solve the root problem.
Common Gate Problems We Fix
Don't struggle with a heavy gate. We have the parts and tools to fix it in one visit.
Dragging on the Ground
If you have to lift your gate to open it, the structural integrity is gone. We install anti-sag kits and adjust the hinges to lift it back up.
Latch Won't Catch
When the post leans, the latch and striker misalign. We realign the post or install self-adjusting latches to secure your yard.
Rotted Hinge Post
The heavy gate pulls on the post. If the post is rotted at the bottom, the gate will never close right. We replace the post with pressure-treated pine.
Our 4-Step Repair Process
The "Post Check"
We dig around the base of the hinge post to check for rot or loose concrete. If the post is bad, fixing the gate is a waste of time—so we check this first.
Realignment
We use heavy-duty lag screws to pull the gate frame back into a perfect 90-degree square.
The "Anti-Sag" Cable
We install a steel turnbuckle cable running diagonally across the gate. This prevents gravity from pulling it down again.
Hardware Upgrade
We replace bent or rusty hinges with black, powder-coated steel hardware that looks great and lasts longer.

We Use Better Parts
Heavy Duty Hinges
We ditch the flimsy builder-grade hinges for thick, black steel T-hinges that can hold the weight.

Our latches open from both the inside and outside, so you never get stuck in the backyard again.
Steel Cables
Every gate repair includes a tension cable with a turnbuckle so you can tighten it yourself if it ever sags.

Gate Repair FAQ
How much does it cost to fix a sagging gate?
Most gate repairs in Augusta range from **$150 to $350**. This typically includes realigning hinges, adding bracing, and fixing the latch. If the post needs replacement, it may be slightly more.
Can you fix my gate or do I need a new one?
90% of gates can be saved! Usually, the wood frame is fine, but the hardware or posts have failed. We focus on repairs to save you money.
Do you service double gates?
Yes! Double drive gates are notorious for sagging because they meet in the middle. We install "drop rods" and center stops to keep them aligned perfectly.
