Service overview
pergola repair can be appropriate when an accessible board, rail, gate fitting or timber surface shows wear, movement or a damaged finish. Review the individual component, visible timber condition and access before distinguishing a minor repair from structural or roofing work.
Signs: a gate does not swing, latch or sit as intended or outdoor timber looks weathered and needs a focused maintenance or repair decision. Causes: weather exposure and ordinary surface deterioration or an aged coating, stain or finish that needs preparation before maintenance.
