This helped me a ton. There’s an older lady behind me who had a stump grow into the chainlink and she was trying to get a whole run replaced instead of a small section. Thanks a bunch!
My wife and I today had to repair our chain link fence, from a fallen tree ( hurricane Florence) I said we did a good job, but maybe there is someone on TH-cam that can show me some tips, I really learned a lot from your video, thank you very much
John, I want to thank you for giving me faith that I can repair a portion of my fence. The cost to have someone replace the entire fence is more than I can afford right now, so I thank you for creating this tutorial. Also, I thank you for being as personable over the phone as you appeared to be in your video. Big waves from Atlanta, wishing you nothing but continued success and blessings in both your business and personal affairs!
Helpful info , my fence is in the same need of repair . This gives me something to work with. I also have sections of my fence that has vines and trees growing they it 🤦🏽♂️
I know this video is a few years old but figured I'd post my question anyway, maybe you'll see it or someone else can answer. We have a section of fence we need to repair due to a tree fall. I think I understand the general process and I thank you for the video. My question is, just about all of the fence repair videos I have seen it looks like the bottom of the fence either doesn't go all the way to the ground or it is very loose at the bottom. We have a dog and, while she is not a big digger, if it's loose enough, I can see her crawling underneath the fence to get after a squirrel or something. The existing fence is pretty much down into the ground or at least there is not much play along the bottom. Is there a process for strengthening, securing, whatever, the bottom of the fence or sinking it into the ground? Do you cut a slit into the ground and bury the fence? Does the fence just have to settle over time? Sorry for the long question and I hope it makes sense. Thx.
Okay,..it sounds like you need some bottom tension wire applied to the bottom the the chain link fence securing it with hog rings,..I have a video on that as well th-cam.com/video/74-GeS-Pjo4/w-d-xo.html
@@jwthefencer, awesome sir, thank you! I watched the other video, I think I've got a handle on it. I've been procrastinating about fixing the fence but we'll get to it one of these days!
@@jwthefencer tough to find flat nose pliers that don't have a side cutter. are these what might be referred to as "Button Fence Tool Pliers" ? thanks!
What is a reasonable price to pay for this type of repair for 15 feet of new fencing? Is the un weaving and re weaving always done by hand. One man told me he uses a machine to do the weaving.
The chain link is machine woven,..this is the way for repairs and installations. What is involved with the repair? Is the post bent to a point that it needs replaced? Is the top rail damaged and needs replaced? How much chain link is really affected? I just quoted a repair of approx. 20' of 4' high chain link, remove and replace one post and approx. 20' of 1-3/8" top rail for just under $600.00. Have repairs like this stacked up for approx. 40+ days
