What Rod does

Mailbox Repair across Mobile County, AL.

Mailbox repair is exactly what it sounds like. A box gets clipped, a post gets bent, a stand gets flattened, and the whole thing leans out over the road. Rod welds the post back straight, re-welds the box to the arm or the stand, and sets it back the way it was.

Mailbox post repair happens at the curb. This is one of those items that are difficult to transport to a shop, and there is no reason to try. Metal mailbox repair covers the box, the post, the arm and the stand.

A new mailbox runs about $400 before concrete, labour and everything else. A repair is not that. The one Rod cannot save is a box that has been smashed to smithereens — send a photo and he will tell you which one you have. Call (251) 753-7337.

Mailbox Repair — Questions, Answered.

  • Do you repair a mailbox that has been hit?
    We will come out and repair the mailbox your neighbor just ran over. Bent posts get straightened and welded, and the box gets re-welded to the arm or the stand, right there at the curb across Mobile County, AL. Call (251) 753-7337.
  • Is it cheaper to repair a mailbox or replace it?
    A new mailbox runs about $400 before concrete, labour and everything else that goes with setting one. A repair is not that. Send a photo and you will get a straight answer on which one your mailbox needs.
  • What kind of mailbox damage cannot be repaired?
    One that has been smashed to smithereens. If the box itself has been flattened there is nothing left to weld to — though the post and the stand can often still be saved. One photo settles it.
  • Do you repair the mailbox post as well as the box?
    Yes — the post, the arm, the stand and the box. Metal mailbox repair covers the whole assembly, and a leaning or bent post is the most common part of the job.
  • Do I have to take the mailbox anywhere?
    No. A mailbox set in concrete is exactly the kind of item that is difficult to transport to a shop, so the repair happens at the curb where it stands.
