From one bad post to a brand-new line.
Across Delta, Tsawwassen and Ladner we handle both ends of the job: repairs — single posts reset in fresh concrete, panels and boards replaced in matching cedar, gates re-squared and re-hung — and full design-build installations in board-on-board western red cedar when the old fence is genuinely done. We walk the line, tell you straight which one your fence needs, and put one fixed written quote in your hands. Old materials are hauled away either way.
| Post replacement — from $150 | One damaged or rotted post pulled and replaced, set in fresh concrete. The fix behind most leaning fences. |
|---|---|
| Panel replacement — from $350 | One panel replaced in matching cedar while retaining suitable existing posts. |
| Panel + two posts — from $450 | A single panel installed with two new posts — a complete section, made solid again. |
Typical starting prices with removal, haul-away and cleanup included — not guaranteed fixed quotes. Final pricing depends on access, soil and concrete conditions, fence dimensions and style, surrounding damage and materials. Your exact number is confirmed in a fixed written quote after a site visit. See the full pricing guide.
What Delta & Tsawwassen fences deal with.
Tsawwassen's open coastal exposure, Ladner's established heritage lots, and a municipality with its own rulebook — the fences out here have their own set of problems, and we build for them.
| Coastal wind & salt air | Tsawwassen sits open to the Strait, and wind and salt are harder on fasteners and hardware than on the cedar itself. Corrosion-resistant black hardware and hidden fasteners are standard on our builds — and posts set in concrete keep a run standing through winter storms. |
|---|---|
| Established lots, older fences | Around Ladner village and Delta's older neighbourhoods, many fences have decades on them. Posts rarely fail all at once — we replace the failed ones and keep the sound run, instead of quoting a full rebuild you may not need. |
| Delta's own rules | The City of Delta sets its own fence height and placement rules — they are not Surrey's. Confirm current requirements with the City of Delta; we flag anything close to a limit during the quote. |
| Shared property lines | A fence on the line between neighbours is generally shared in BC. We can produce one fixed written quote both neighbours can review — details in our guide to who pays for a shared fence in BC. |
One section replaced, the rest kept.
From a recent Ironwood Grounds job: the old chain-link stretch came out and new board-on-board cedar and a gate went in — while the sound fencing beside it stayed. You only pay for the fence you actually need.
A real Ironwood Grounds project — one section replaced with board-on-board cedar and a new gate; the fence beside it stayed.
Built by someone who answers the phone.
Ironwood Grounds is a small, owner-run operation on the Peninsula — not a rotating crew of subcontractors. You deal with the person who assesses your fence, does the work, and stands behind it.

Four steps, one fixed quote.
Look & assess
We walk the fence, find where it is actually failing, and tell you honestly whether it is a repair or a replacement — usually within a business day or two.
Fixed written quote
One clear written quote for the scope we agree on. No hourly rate, no line-item surprises, no pressure to decide on the spot.
The work
Posts reset, panels and boards replaced, gates rebuilt and the line brought back to plumb — old materials hauled away as we go.
Walkthrough
We walk the finished fence with you, check every gate swings and latches clean, and leave the property tidy.
The details, before you ask.
How much does fence repair cost in Delta or Tsawwassen?
Replacing one damaged fence post starts at $150. Replacing one panel while retaining suitable existing posts starts at $350. A single panel installed with two new posts starts at $450 — removal, haul-away and cleanup included. These are typical starting prices, not guaranteed fixed quotes; your exact number is confirmed in a fixed written quote after a site visit.
Do you build new cedar fences as well as repair?
Yes — both. We repair what can be repaired, and when a fence is genuinely done we design and build a new board-on-board western red cedar fence with a fixed written quote and a written workmanship warranty. Our cedar fence installation page covers how we build.
What are Delta's fence height rules?
The City of Delta sets its own fence height and placement rules — they are not identical to Surrey's. Confirm current requirements with the City of Delta before building; we flag anything close to a limit during the quote.
How does coastal weather in Tsawwassen affect a fence?
Open coastal wind and salt air are hard on fasteners and hardware. We build with corrosion-resistant black hardware and hidden fasteners, and set posts in concrete so the run stands up to the exposure.
The fence is shared with my neighbour — who pays?
In BC, a fence on the property line is generally shared, and each neighbour usually pays half of reasonable costs. We can produce one fixed written quote both neighbours can review. Our guide to who pays for a fence between neighbours covers it — general information, not legal advice.
How fast can you come out?
We try to get out quickly, especially for a fence that has come down or is a safety or pet-containment issue. Call (778) 850-1016 and we will set the soonest site visit we can, usually within a business day or two.
