Sun-split pickets matched, posts reset, sagging gates rehung square. Priced on the call, usually finished in one visit.


Kaminskiy Care and Repair repairs wood fences and gates across Poway, from Green Valley and Old Poway to Rancho Arbolitos and the Garden Road streets. Pickets the inland sun has split are matched, posts the sprinklers have rotted are reset in fresh concrete, and gates that drag 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 ten minutes down Pomerado Road.
Eight repairs, one crew, priced before we come out.
Hundred-degree summers, dry Santa Ana afternoons and sprinklers at the base of every post wear a Poway fence down from both ends. We reset the posts, match the wood and the stain, and rehang the gate so it latches with one hand. Same fence, standing straight.

The sun, then the water. Poway summers bake redwood and cedar until the boards check and split along the grain, and a dog-ear picket that has taken ten of them breaks when you lean on it. At the ground, the sprinklers that keep the lawn alive keep the posts wet, and subterranean termites finish them below grade. A hot east wind then takes the weakest section. The fix is new posts in concrete and matched boards, not a new fence.
Poway's own code keeps residential fences and walls to six feet, with the top two feet of a front-yard fence open and three feet the limit within fifteen feet of a driveway or street corner; anything over six feet needs a building permit from the city. A like-for-like repair changes nothing. We check before building anything new.
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, iron and the ranch-rail fencing on the larger lots 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.
A pool gate should close and latch on its own, with the latch release at least 60 inches up. That is the standard in California's Swimming Pool Safety Act, and it 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.
Tract fences from the 1970s through the 1990s, mostly dog-ear redwood or cedar on posts set when the house was built. The pickets gray and split in the sun while the sprinklers rot the posts, so a whole run leans at once. Most of these streets have an HOA, so we match the profile, the spacing and the stain, and new boards weather to match within a season.
Larger lots, longer runs and older fences with posts set in soil. One post gone lets a long section sag, and the horse-country side yards take real weather. We reset the failed posts, rebuild a fallen section on the existing posts and brace the gate so it stops dragging. Ranch rail and whole-fence jobs are not ours; we say so on the call.
Slopes and retaining walls, with fences that carry their own weight downhill. A rotted post lets a section rack, and the first Santa Ana wind of the fall finishes it. We reset the post, re-plumb the run and set the gate so it latches without a lift.
Snap a picture of the split pickets or the leaning post and text it, or just tell us what the fence is doing. The price is set on the call and sent in writing before we pick a day.
Our office is ten minutes down Pomerado Road, and the truck leaves it with posts, rails, pickets, hardware and concrete aboard. The usual post reset or picket swap is done the first time out.
A gate past saving is replaced with a single wood gate built in your yard, up to four feet wide. A section that went down is rebuilt on the existing posts, not replaced with a new fence.
We haul off the rotted posts, the broken boards and the old concrete, rake the side yard, and hand you the one-year workmanship warranty in writing with the invoice.
Poway's code (Municipal Code 17.08.240) keeps a residential fence or wall to six feet; in the front yard the top two feet of a six-foot fence must be open, and within fifteen feet of a driveway or a street corner the limit is three feet. A fence over six feet needs a building permit from the city. A like-for-like repair changes nothing, and we check before building anything new.
California's Swimming Pool Safety Act expects a pool barrier gate to close and latch on its own, with the latch release at least 60 inches above the ground. If your pool gate drags open or the latch no longer catches, that is the first thing we fix.
Rancho Arbolitos, Green Valley, Stoneridge and most of the planned neighborhoods are association communities, and most do not need to approve a repair that matches the existing fence. A new gate, a new section or a different stain sometimes needs a form. We can give you the materials and finish in writing for it.

Call 858-330-5590Priced on the call, and usually on the schedule within days; our office is ten minutes down Pomerado Road. The technician arrives with posts, rails, pickets, hardware and concrete already loaded, so a rotted post, a run of split pickets or a dragging gate is normally fixed in one visit.
Yes. A reset post, a new rail, matched pickets, a hinge or a latch: that is handyman work, and it is most of what a Poway fence ever needs. Kaminskiy is licensed, bonded and insured, so when a section has to be rebuilt or a gate built new, that is covered too.
It comes down to how many posts are gone, how many boards the sun has split and how easy the run is to reach. A fence on a slope above Lake Poway costs more to work on than a flat side yard in Stoneridge. Text a photo or describe it, and the price is yours on the call, in writing, before we schedule.
No. We repair wood: posts, rails, pickets, sections, gates and stain. The ranch rail on the acre lots, vinyl, iron, electric gate openers and whole-fence replacement: none of that is our lane. When a Poway fence needs one of those we say so on the call, then fix the gate and the sections that are still worth saving.
Yes. We match the picket profile, the spacing and the stain. New pressure-treated boards weather to match the rest of the fence within a season, or we stain them to match on the day.
A repair that matches the existing fence rarely needs anything. Poway keeps fences to six feet and asks for a permit only above that. A new gate, a new section or a different color sometimes needs an HOA form, and we can put the materials and finish in writing for it.
