Horse Fence Repair and Replacement
When Your Horse Fence Goes Down, It Can't Wait
A broken fence with horses on the other side is a problem that counts in hours, not days. You're not browsing contractor websites for fun right now. Something happened and you need it handled.
I'm Dylan with Alpine Earthworks. My team and I have fixed fences at midnight because a tree came down and horses were loose. We've replaced entire runs that should have been dealt with two years ago. Whatever state your fence is in, I'll come look at it, tell you exactly what it needs, and get it done.
Repairs We Handle
- Storm and wind damage - broken rails, leaning posts, whole sections on the ground. Colorado weather doesn't mess around.
- Rotted posts - I can swap individual posts without tearing down the rest. No need to redo what's still solid.
- Sagging wire and mesh - re-tensioning or replacing the section, depending on what makes sense.
- Gates that don't work right - hinges, latches, sagging frames, that gate you've been muscling shut for six months.
- Animal damage - where a horse went through it, or where elk decided your fence was optional.
- Electric fence problems - shorts, grounding failures, dead energizers. I'll find the problem and fix it.

I'll Tell You Whether to Fix It or Replace It
If your fence has one bad section and the rest is solid, I'll fix the bad section. No reason to turn it into a bigger job than it needs to be. If the whole thing is rotting at the ground line and you're going to be calling me every few months, I'll tell you that too.
My team and I will give you the real picture so you can make the call that makes sense for your property and your budget.
How We Handle Horse Fence Repairs
My team and I treat every repair call with urgency because a broken horse fence is never just a cosmetic problem. Whether it is storm damage, age, or an animal that went through a section, here is how we approach it:
- Fast response - If animals are loose or at risk, that call goes to the front of the line.
- Temporary containment when needed - Sometimes the permanent fix takes a follow-up visit. I'll get something secure in place so your horses are safe in the meantime.
- Honest assessment - I'll look at the damage and give you a straight read: repair, partial replacement, or full redo. No pressure either way.
- Materials on the truck - I carry posts, rails, wire, and hardware for common fence types. Most repairs happen same-day.
- Built to last - A repair that fails again in a month isn't a repair. I fix it once, fix it right.
Where We Work
I cover a lot of ground for repair calls, from the Front Range out to the plains and up into the mountains. My team and I work with boarding facilities, private ranches, and hobby farms across Colorado. If your horses need containment tonight, I'll do what I can to make that happen regardless of where you are.

Common Questions About Horse Fence Repair
How fast can you get here for an emergency? If horses are loose or in danger, I drop what I can and get there. Timing depends on where I am that day, but I'll get a temporary solution in place as fast as humanly possible and schedule the permanent fix from there.
Can you match my existing fence? Yes. I carry materials for all the common horse fence types and I'll match what you've got so the repair doesn't stick out. If it's an unusual style, I'll source the right materials before I start.
How do I know if it's worth repairing vs. replacing? If the damage is in one spot and the rest of the fence is sound, repair is the obvious move. If you're seeing problems everywhere, rotted posts, sagging wire, leaning sections, you're probably better off replacing. I'll give you my honest read after I see it.
Do you fix electric fences too? Yes. Electric fence issues are usually grounding problems, shorts from weeds on the wire, or a dying energizer. I'll track down the issue and get your charge back.
What breaks horse fences out here? Freeze-thaw cycles heaving posts out of the ground, wind snapping rails, UV cooking the materials, and moisture rotting everything at the ground line. Even great fences need maintenance eventually. Colorado is hard on everything.
