Termite-eaten posts reset, pickets matched, storm-sagged gates rehung square. Priced on the call, usually finished in one visit.
BBBAccredited BusinessKaminskiy Care and Repair repairs wood fences and gates across Kendall, from Dadeland and Old Kendall to Kendall Lakes, The Hammocks, The Crossings and Country Walk. Posts eaten at the ground by termites and damp are reset in fresh concrete, broken pickets and rails are matched, and gates that sagged in the last storm are rehung square, usually in one visit. You get the price on the call, in writing, before anything is scheduled, and we keep every board that is still sound. Since 2005, from our office on Ponce de Leon Boulevard in Coral Gables.
Eight repairs, one crew, priced before we come out.
Old oaks in the east, lake communities in the middle, long association runs out west, a wet season that keeps every post damp and a hurricane season every year wear a Kendall fence down. We reset the posts, match the wood, and rehang the gate so it latches with one hand before the next storm. Same fence, standing straight.

Kendall repairs, east to west, carry our one-year workmanship warranty, and we put it in writing.
From the ground up. Subterranean termites and a damp base hollow a wood post at grade while the pickets above still look fine. In east Kendall the old oaks shade the fences and the roots push them; around the lakes the posts stay wet; out west the runs are long and the gates see daily traffic. Then a storm leans on the weakest post. The fix is new posts in concrete and matched boards, not a new fence.
Kendall is unincorporated Miami-Dade, so the county's rules apply: a wood fence needs a building permit to repair or replace, and a residential fence is held to six feet. Most communities west of the turnpike also want an association approval letter. We tell you on the call what your job needs.
Reset posts and matching pickets fix most fences for a fraction of the cost of a new one, and that is the work we do. Whole-fence replacement, vinyl, aluminum and iron are not our lane. If that is what the fence needs, we say so on the call, and we still fix the gate and the sections that can be saved.
Florida's Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act wants a pool barrier gate that opens away from the pool and closes and latches on its own, with the release on the pool side where a small child cannot reach it. That is the first thing we check on a pool fence. The gap the dog found at the bottom is a rail and a picket, fixed in the same visit.
Ranch homes from the 1950s and 1960s on big lots under old oaks. Roots push the posts and the shade keeps the boards damp. We reset the posts, replace the boards that have gone and match the fence.
Communities from the 1970s on lake lots. The posts nearest the water stay wet and rot at grade, so the run leans toward the lake. Resetting the failed posts brings the line back straight.
Association communities from the 1980s on with smaller lots and long identical runs. A storm takes one weak post and a section goes over. We rebuild it on the existing posts and match the profile the association expects.
Call and say what the fence is up to, or text a photo of it. The price is set on that call and put in writing for you, and nothing goes on the schedule until you have seen it.
Posts, concrete, rails, pickets and gate hardware leave Ponce de Leon Boulevard on the truck, so the Kendall post, picket or gate job is finished the first time we come out.
If the gate is beyond saving, a single wood gate goes up on site, four feet wide or less. A section that is down goes back on whichever of the existing posts are still sound.
Old posts, split boards and dead hardware go in the truck, and the yard is swept. The one-year workmanship warranty is set down in writing, so it is on file for the association or the county.
Kendall follows Miami-Dade County's code: permits are required for all walls and fences, and the county says a wood fence needs a building permit to repair or replace, with a site plan or survey and, for townhomes and condos, an association approval letter. A residential fence is held to six feet, with no more than two and a half feet in the sight triangle or within ten feet of a driveway. The finished side faces out, and chain link stays behind the front of the house.
Florida's Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act expects a pool barrier gate to open outward, away from the pool, and to close and latch on its own with the release on the pool side out of a child's reach. If your pool gate drags open or the latch no longer catches, that is the first thing we fix.
West and central Kendall are mostly association communities, and many want an approval letter before work starts; east Kendall is mixed. A repair that matches the existing fence is the simplest case. We can give you the materials and finish in writing for the association's form.

Call 786-527-2055Usually within days of the call. Kendall repairs are priced on that first call, and the technician comes from Coral Gables with posts, concrete, rails, pickets and hardware already loaded, so a reset post, a run of new pickets or a rehung gate is done in one visit.
Yes. Resetting posts, replacing rails and pickets and fixing hinges and latches is handyman work, and in Kendall it is most of the fence work there is. Kaminskiy is licensed, bonded and insured, and a rebuilt section or a brand new gate is covered as well.
Three things move the price in Kendall: the posts that have failed, the boards that have to be replaced, and how far the truck is from the fence. Say what you see or text a photo, and we give the figure on the call, in writing, before a visit is booked.
Kendall is unincorporated Miami-Dade County, so the county code and the county permit office apply. A wood fence needs a county building permit to repair or replace. We tell you on the call what your job needs.
No. We repair wood fences and gates in Kendall, and we stop there. Whole-fence replacement is not ours, and neither are vinyl, aluminum, iron or electric gate openers. If that is what your fence needs we say it on the call, and we still fix the gate and the sections worth saving.
Usually. Miami-Dade County says a permit is needed to repair or replace a fence, and wood fences take a building permit. We tell you on the call what your job needs, and we match the fence so it passes.
