Fence Post & Panel Repair
A rotted or snapped post dug out and reset in fresh concrete, panels rehung square — the repair that saves the rest of the run. Most-requested fence fix on AllBetter.
$100–$350 · Most Requested
Leaning Fence Straightening
A whole leaning run braced, pulled plumb, and re-anchored before gravity wins — caught early, it’s a repair; caught late, it’s a rebuild.
$120–$400 · Catch It Early
Gate Repair & Alignment
Sagging gates rehung, hinges replaced, and latches aligned so the gate swings clean and actually closes — the fix everyone lives with for a year too long.
$75–$250 · Swings Clean
Storm-Damage Section Rebuild
Wind-flattened sections rebuilt to match the standing fence — same height, same style, new posts — so the repair disappears into the run.
$200–$800 · After the Wind
Fence Staining & Sealing
A repaired fence cleaned, stained, and sealed against water and sun — the maintenance coat that doubles the life of the wood you just fixed.
$300–$900 · Make It Last
New Fence Runs & Replacement
When the run is past saving — new privacy, picket, or chain-link installed with the line, height, and gate placement agreed in writing first.
$1,500–$4,500 · Past SavingFence posts fail underground where you can’t see it — rot and heave at the concrete line — which is why a fence looks fine until it suddenly leans. If one post went, its neighbors set in the same season are next: have the pro check the whole run while they’re there.
Photo the Fence. Get Repair Bids in 10 Min. Approve.
From a weekly mow to a $20K backyard makeover — here's how AllBetter replaces the deposit-and-pray model.
Show Us the Yard
Photo the lawn, beds, trees, fence line, paver area. Note lot size, frequency (one-time vs recurring), and special needs (gate access, dog in yard, sprinkler heads to avoid). Takes 60 seconds. No credit card. No deposit. No annual contract commitment.
Compare Real Bids
identity-verified landscapers send fixed per-job bids — total cost locked before anyone touches the yard. Compare price, reviews, and identity status side by side, then ask about equipment and timing in the chat.
Walk the Yard. Tap Approve.
Your money sits in escrow while the crew works. Walk the yard and tap Approve — only then does the crew get paid. No annual contracts. Posting and comparing is free; a small service fee applies at booking.
Don't Hand a Stranger $5,000 Upfront.
Deposit-takers vanish, cash-only crews ghost, and the big chains lock you into 12-month contracts. Three things kill all of that:
ID-Verified to Bid
Government ID confirmed by identity before any pro sees your address. No anonymous lawn crews in your backyard with the gate open.
Every pro · no exceptionsEscrow-Protected Payment
Your money sits in escrow while the work happens. The pro is paid when you approve the finished job — not before.

AllBetter vs. TruGreen vs. Lawn Love vs. Thumbtack
TruGreen and the national chains lock you into 12-month contracts with auto-renewal and cancellation friction. Lawn Love assigns whoever's closest — no choice in pro. Angi/Thumbtack charge landscapers $15–$50 per lead — that cost gets baked into your quote. Cash-only "guy with a truck" wants a $2,000 deposit and good luck if he ghosts.
