Call (469) 530-2485

We know the difference between a gate that won’t close on Abercorn Extension and one that’s sagging on a live oak-shaded lane off Victory Drive. Savannah’s humidity, salt air off the river, and the way our sandy coastal soil shifts after heavy rains all show up in the gates we fix. Lonnie Burke built Carver Gate Repair on The Garrison Standard because homeowners were tired of technicians who treated gate work like a side gig. We don’t do side gigs. We do gates.

Why Carver Gate Repair Is Savannah’s Preferred Gate Repair Company

We’ve been working to The Garrison Standard since 2008, and Savannah homeowners have come to expect the same thing our customers in every market get: a background-checked, uniformed technician who shows up in a marked vehicle, diagnoses the problem, and hands you a written price before touching a wrench.

Our technicians know Savannah’s neighborhoods. We’ve realigned gates on stucco homes in Ardsley Park where the soil settles unevenly after summer thunderstorms. We’ve replaced hinge pins on wrought iron at properties near Forsyth Park where the original 1920s masonry has softened with age. We’ve traced electrical faults in automatic systems out on Whitemarsh Island where the salt air corrodes contacts faster than inland locations.

Phones are answered by a live person around the clock, including weekends and holidays. No voicemail boxes. No call-back queues. Dispatch is coordinated from our Atlanta office, but the crew that arrives at your Savannah property is local and knows the area.

Sliding Gate Repair in Savannah

Sliding Gate Repair in Savannah addresses the track-mounted systems common on larger properties from the Southside to the islands, where swing gates need too much clearance. A typical sliding gate repair in Savannah runs $220 – $480, with track replacement or motor repositioning at the higher end. We see these systems fail when sandy soil washes out from under the track after heavy rain, or when rollers seize from the grit that blows in off the marsh.

Track Realignment and V-Block Replacement

The V-blocks that keep your gate centered in the track wear flat over time, especially when the track itself has settled. We measure the full run, shim or repour the footing if needed, and replace blocks with the correct durometer for your gate’s weight. The price is in your hand before we start.

Motor and Limit Switch Service

Sliding gate motors work harder in Savannah’s heat, and limit switches can drift if the gate encounters repeated resistance. We test the full travel, calibrate the open and close limits, and replace the operator if it’s pulling excessive amperage. We stock parts for Viking, DoorKing, and Elite systems to cut wait times.

Wrought Iron Gate Repair in Savannah

Wrought Iron Gate Repair in Savannah covers the decorative and security gates found throughout the Historic District, Victorian District, and older homes from Thunderbolt to Isle of Hope. A typical wrought iron repair in Savannah runs $180 – $650, with simple weld and rust treatment at the lower end and full section replacement or hinge rebuilds at the higher end. The salt air off the Savannah River accelerates rust at weld points, and the live oak canopy that makes this city beautiful also traps moisture against metalwork.

Rust Removal and Protective Coating

We grind rust to bare metal at the weld and joint points, not just the visible surface. Then we apply a zinc-rich primer and industrial enamel rated for coastal exposure. This isn’t a cosmetic touch-up. It’s what keeps the gate from failing at the same spot in two years.

Hinge and Post Restoration

Many Savannah wrought iron gates hang from masonry posts that have cracked or spalled where the hinge bolt passes through. We can fabricate custom mounting plates, repour post caps, or recommend a masonry contractor if the post itself needs rebuild. We tell you which it is before any work starts.

Trusted Brands We Service in Savannah

Our technicians train on nine gate-motor brands: LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, and Mighty Mule. For Savannah customers, this means we don’t order parts blind or make you wait while we figure out your system. We stock common Viking and Elite control boards and limit switches at our regional hub, and we carry Ghost Controls and DoorKing actuator arms for same-day replacement on most residential calls. If your operator is obsolete, we’ll tell you honestly and quote a replacement with a written price, not a verbal guess that changes at the door.

Common Gate Repair Problems We See in Savannah Homes

• Salt air corrosion on electrical contacts. The coastal humidity and occasional salt spray from the river corrode circuit board traces and terminal blocks faster than in inland Georgia. We see this on automatic systems east of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and on the islands.
• Sandy soil settlement after heavy rain. Savannah’s coastal plain soils drain fast but shift easily. We’ve realigned dozens of gates in neighborhoods like Baldwin Park and Daffin Heights where the posts have tilted after saturation events.
• Live oak debris in track and roller mechanisms. The dense canopy that shades Savannah properties drops leaves, pollen, and small branches year-round. This material compacts in sliding gate tracks and jams roller assemblies if not cleared regularly.
• Age-related fatigue in historic wrought iron. Gates from the 1920s through 1950s are common in the Victorian District and Thomas Square. The metal itself can be sound while the forged joints have crystallized and cracked from decades of flexing.
