Usually, these people have just cut the chain link mesh. To repair a cut chain link fence, we have to un-tension the chain link, remove the cut strands of mesh and weave in new strands. Lastly, we re-tension the whole run and your chain link fence will be practically as good as new!

WHAT WE LOOK AT:
In making all of these repairs we take into account the types and styles of chain link you have so it all blends as best as possible. Some of the items that we look at are:
- Color Style: Is the chain link fence frame and mesh silver (galvanized) or a different color like black.
- Privacy Slats: Are there privacy slats in your chain link fence. If there are we note the color and the style “standard viewguard” or “viewguard plus” with wings.
- Mesh: For the chain link fence mesh we note the gauge (thickness) of the wire and if the tops and bottoms are knuckle/knuckle or knuckle/barb. Knuckle/Knuckle is when the top of the fence mesh and the bottom match with a bent (not pointy) look. This is most often found in residential uses. The other style is called knuckle/barb and these have a different look at the top of the mesh with a twisted top that ends in points versus the bottom of the fence with have the bent (non-pointy) look.
- Frame Sizing: Next to evaluate is the sizing and gauge of the top rail and posts of your chain link fence. Top rails are commonly 1 5/8 inches but they can range from 1 3/8 to 1 7/8 inches. Line posts are most commonly 1 7/8 to 2 3/8 but they can range in sizes due to a variety of things such as the height of the fence, wind load (slats or not), gates hanging from it, and type of use. If we find anything out of normal specification during our inspection, we will note this and make the correction the proper way.
