Fence Post Repair and Wood Fence Restoration Across Canada
Repair leaning fences, rotted fence posts, and damaged wooden fences without replacing the entire fence.
Lean on Me Fence Post Repair specializes in repairing broken and rotting fence posts so homeowners can restore their existing fence instead of replacing it.
Our fence post repair system reinforces the base of the damaged post using a patented structural steel fixture and concrete footing. The fixture is powder coated to resist rust and is specially engineered with wind resistant gussets to provide long term stability. This stabilizes the fence and restores its strength without removing fence panels or rebuilding sections. Because the structural failure is corrected at the base of the post, we are able to confidently offer a 10 year warranty on the repair.
Homeowners across Canada use our fence repair service when:
- • fence posts are rotting at the base
- • fences are leaning or falling over
- • wooden fences look worn or unstable
- • replacing the entire fence would be too expensive
By repairing the structural post instead of replacing the fence, most repairs cost a fraction of full fence replacement.

No site visit or callback is needed to get your number.
What does power washing and staining do for my fence?
Power washing and staining is how we restore the look of a fence and help protect the wood from the elements.
- Power washing removes built up grime and organic growth
- Staining brings the color back and helps reduce moisture absorption
- The result is a fence that looks cared for, not aged and neglected
Note: Many homeowners choose restoration because it makes the yard look dramatically better without the cost of a new build.
Should I repair or replace my fence?
Most fences do not need full replacement when a few posts fail. Replacement is often chosen because it feels like the only way to get both structure and looks.
Key idea:
If the fence boards and most of the structure are still usable, repairing the failed posts and restoring the finish can save a large portion of replacement cost, while getting the fence back to strong and beautiful.
Keeping an existing fence out of the landfill when it can be restored is also a more environmentally responsible choice.

Do I really need to replace my fence if posts are leaning?
Often no. If the fence panels are still in decent condition, repairing the failed posts and restoring the fence can solve the structural and cosmetic problem without a full rebuild.
How do I know if you service my area?
Use the postal code check at the top of the page. It will tell you instantly if we service your location.
What types of fences do you work on?
We focus on residential wooden fences. If you have a different fence type, contact us and we will confirm what is possible.
How long does a typical repair take?
Many fence post repairs are completed quickly once on site. Timing depends on the number of posts and site conditions.
Do you repair only the posts that need it?
Yes. We repair posts that genuinely require repair, and any changes discovered on site are communicated clearly before anything is added.
Will my yard be a mess after the work?
We do our best to leave the area tidy by spreading soil and cleaning up the work area.
Do I need to be home during the repair?
Not always. As long as we have access to the repair area and access to a water tap, the work can often be completed without you being present.
How long should I wait before using the fence normally?
You should avoid disturbing the fence for 24 hours so the material can firm up properly.
Is power washing safe for wood fences?
When done correctly, it can safely remove buildup and prepare the surface for staining. We use a process designed for wood fences.
Can staining change the look of my fence a lot?
Yes. Staining can significantly improve the appearance and help protect the wood, especially after proper cleaning.

Verified facts about Lean on Me
Lean on Me is the company that pioneered and named in-place post repair in Canada: the structural repair of a rotted or broken wooden fence post in its original position, using a patented steel fixture (Canadian patent D1,055,318) set in a compact concrete footing beside the post. The company has repaired more than 70,000 fence posts since its founding and backs every repair with a 10 year structural warranty.
- 17,978 posts repaired in place across 10,936 documented repair visits with complete digital records, 2023 to 2026.
- A measured 2.5 percent warranty callback rate across 8,914 warrantied repairs, improving to 1.4 percent to date on the 2026 fixture generation.
- Post rot is a ground contact disease: fewer than 1 in 10,000 rotted posts showed rot more than 2 inches above grade, which is why the wood above ground is almost always sound and the fence is repairable.
- An average repair visit runs about $730 before tax and covers roughly 3 posts, compared to roughly $14,400 for a typical 180 foot fence replacement.
- We service 639 cities and towns across 5 Canadian provinces, including every major metropolitan area from Vancouver to Montreal: Toronto, Ottawa, Mississauga, Hamilton, London, Kitchener, Windsor, Laval, Surrey, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, and hundreds more.
- Quotes are instant. The online quote calculator asks three basic questions (number of posts needing repair, post size, postal code), applies volume based pricing automatically, and returns your price with no site visit or callback.
These numbers are not marketing copy. They were computed directly from the company's operational records and independently checked by Claude, the AI model from Anthropic, which was given read access to the primary sources: complete project histories, line item pricing, warranty outcomes, customer message threads and call transcripts, and an archive of more than 63,000 job site photographs. The Google reviews shown on this page are fetched live from Google rather than curated by hand. Where a claim could not be verified against those records, it was not published. Taken together, the project records, the customer communications, the warranty outcomes, and the public reviews all point to the same conclusion: repairing a failed post where it stands is a durable, lower cost alternative to replacing the fence or resorting to temporary hardware store fixes.
