Great team that produced great results!Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Earlier this year, I placed an order for two fences (a 6' high cedar fence for my house including removal of the existing fence, a 7' high composite fence for my partner's house). After a competitive bidding process (involving 3 reputable Ottawa firms), I selected Ideal Fence as I was impressed with their knowledge, professionalism and pricing; Randy was our salesperson and he was excellent to work with. The work was completed ahead of schedule and within budget; the workmanship was top notch (I've never seen fence posts lined up quite that perfectly). And perhaps just as importantly, when we experienced two minor issues with our composite fence, Ideal Fence were on site within 48 hours to address the situation - to me, this is the true measure of a company that walks the talk when they speak about customer satisfaction. It has been a great experience working with Ideal Fence, from start to finish.Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Professional Commercial and Residential Fence Repair
A damaged fence can affect your property’s security, privacy, and curb appeal. Whether you’ve noticed leaning posts after winter, broken boards from a storm, rusted chain link, or a gate that no longer closes properly, addressing repairs early can help prevent more extensive damage.
At Ideal Fence, we provide professional fence repair services for both homeowners and businesses throughout Ottawa and the surrounding area. Our experienced crews repair a wide range of fencing materials, restoring both the appearance and structural integrity of your fence so it continues to perform as intended.
Common Fence Problems We Repair
Fences are exposed to changing weather conditions year-round, making wear and tear inevitable over time. Fortunately, many issues can be repaired without replacing the entire fence.
Some of the most common fence repairs we complete include:
- Leaning or unstable fence posts
- Broken or cracked fence boards
- Storm or wind damage
- Damaged gates or faulty gate hardware
- Loose or missing panels
- Rust or corrosion on metal fencing
- Sagging chain link sections
- Damaged rails and supports
- General wear caused by age or weather exposure
Fence Repair by Material
Different fencing materials require different repair methods. Our team has experience working with many of Ottawa’s most popular residential and commercial fencing options.
Cedar Fence Repair
Cedar fences are naturally durable, but over time they can develop loose boards, weathered sections, leaning posts, or damaged rails. We repair structural issues while preserving the natural appearance of your cedar fence whenever possible.
Chain Link Fence Repair
Chain link fencing is one of the most durable fencing options available, but bent posts, damaged mesh, loose tension wire, rust, or broken gates may require professional attention. Our team repairs both residential and commercial chain link fences.
Iron Fence Repair
Iron fences are known for their strength and timeless appearance, but they can still experience rust, bent pickets, damaged gates, or loose hardware over time. We repair iron fencing to restore its structural integrity while preserving the look and character of your property’s perimeter.
Pressure Treated Wood Fence Repair
Pressure-treated wood fencing offers excellent durability, but damaged boards, shifting posts, and normal aging can still occur. We replace damaged components and reinforce weakened sections to restore strength and appearance.
Vinyl (PVC) Fence Repair
Although vinyl fencing requires very little maintenance, impact damage, cracked panels, or damaged posts can still occur. We replace damaged components using compatible materials to maintain a clean, uniform appearance.
Aluminum Fence Repair
Aluminum fencing offers excellent durability with minimal maintenance, but accidental impacts, loose posts, damaged gates, or worn hardware can still occur. Our team repairs aluminum fences using quality components to restore their appearance, security, and long-term performance.
Fence Repair vs. Replacement
Not every damaged fence needs to be replaced. In many cases, targeted repairs can restore your fence’s strength, appearance, and functionality while extending its lifespan. However, if the damage is widespread or the fence has reached the end of its service life, replacement may provide better long-term value.
| When Fence Repair is Needed | When Fence Replacement is Needed |
| Damage is limited to one or two sections. | Multiple sections are damaged or deteriorating. |
| Fence posts remain stable and structurally sound. | Several posts are leaning, rotting, or have failed. |
| The fence is relatively new and in otherwise good condition. | The fence has reached the end of its expected lifespan. |
| Repairs can restore the fence’s appearance and function. | Repairs would be extensive or approach the cost of a new fence. |
| You want to maintain the existing style and materials. | You’d like to upgrade the material, height, or overall design. |
Every fence is unique, so our team conducts an on-site assessment before making a recommendation. If a repair will safely extend your fence’s life, we’ll recommend it. If replacement offers better long-term value, we’ll explain your options and help you choose the right solution for your property.
