Timelines and Scheduling
Storm damage repair timelines depend on damage extent and demand. After major weather events, many homeowners need help simultaneously.
We prioritize situations where security is compromised or safety is at risk. Fences that are partially down but not posing immediate problems may need to wait while we address urgent cases first.
Simple repairs may complete within days of assessment. More extensive damage requiring post replacement takes longer due to concrete cure times.
We communicate honestly about scheduling. During high-demand periods, we will tell you realistic timeframes rather than making promises we cannot keep.
Pricing Factors
Storm damage repair costs depend on what the storm destroyed:
- Extent of damage: a few downed pickets costs less than multiple destroyed sections
- Post involvement: post replacement adds significant work and materials
- Emergency timing: immediate response during high-demand periods may carry premium rates
- Material matching: sourcing lumber to match existing fence affects cost
- Access and cleanup: storms leave debris that must be cleared before repair work
- Insurance involvement: we can provide documentation but paperwork takes time
We provide clear estimates before work begins except in true emergencies requiring immediate stabilization.
Tulsa-Specific Considerations
Oklahoma storm damage follows predictable patterns. Spring brings severe thunderstorms with high winds. Summer includes occasional derecho events. Winter ice can down fences under accumulated weight.
Understanding these patterns helps with prevention and repair. Posts set at proper depth resist uprooting. Solid panels in exposed locations may need reinforcement. Gate latches should be substantial enough to hold during wind events.
After repairing storm damage, we look at what failed and why. This informs recommendations to prevent similar damage in future storms.
Insurance claims are common after major storms. We provide documentation and photographs to support your claim process, though the claim itself is between you and your insurer.
Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can you respond after a storm?
We respond to storm damage calls as quickly as possible, usually within 24-48 hours for assessment. Repair scheduling depends on demand after major events, but we prioritize security-compromising situations.
Should I file an insurance claim for fence damage?
It depends on your policy and damage extent. Some homeowner policies cover fence damage; others exclude it. Deductibles may exceed repair costs for minor damage. We can provide documentation to support claims.
Can you repair any type of fence after storm damage?
We repair wood, metal, chain link, and most other fence types. The specific work depends on what material was damaged and what kind of repair it needs.
What if my fence damaged a neighbors property?
Liability questions are between property owners and insurers. We focus on repairing your fence. Consult your insurance company about any liability concerns.
Will the repair match my existing fence?
We source matching materials whenever possible. New wood will be lighter than weathered wood initially but will blend over time. Staining can help match new repairs to existing sections.
