The primary cause is the high humidity and frequent moisture from nearby Lake Livingston. This accelerates oxidation on standard metal hardware like hinges and latches. A sign of this issue is orange or brown discoloration and difficulty opening gates. The solution involves replacing affected hardware with stainless steel or galvanized options, which resist corrosion. 4 Seasons Landscaping can handle this replacement during a routine lawn care visit or as part of a dedicated fence repair service.

Privacy fence blowouts are often caused by wind catching the solid panels like a sail, especially if the fence posts are not set deep enough or the concrete footings have eroded. A sign to look for is leaning fence sections or gaps between the panel and the post. The solution involves reinforcing the posts with deeper concrete footings and adding wind-resistant brackets. As part of our landscape design service, we can also recommend strategic planting of windbreaks, such as dense shrubs, to reduce direct wind pressure on your fence.

Yes, absolutely. Overgrown grass and weeds trap moisture against wooden fence posts and metal hardware, promoting rot and rust. A sign of this is damp soil clinging to the base of your fence. Our lawn care service includes regular trimming and edging around the fence line to keep vegetation away. This simple maintenance step significantly extends the life of your fence by reducing moisture retention and allowing the wood and metal to dry out properly after rain.
