Affordable Deck & Fence: Local Fencing Company Serving Toledo, OH 43612

The most common cause is moisture from freeze-thaw cycles and snow, which can rot wooden posts and loosen concrete footings. Signs include leaning sections, cracked wood, or gates that won’t latch. We solve this by replacing rotted posts with pressure-treated lumber and re-setting them in deeper concrete footings that go below the frost line. For existing fences, our weatherproofing service seals and stains wood to prevent future moisture damage.

Toledo’s humidity swings and winter salt exposure can dry out wood or cause it to swell unevenly, leading to warping. Signs are boards that twist, bow, or crack. Our solution includes replacing damaged boards with kiln-dried, treated lumber and applying a high-quality stain that includes UV blockers and a waterproof seal. We also check for proper spacing between boards so they can expand and contract without buckling.

Yes, we repair manual and automatic gate openers. Common Toledo causes are corroded wiring from road salt or a dead battery after a cold snap. First, check for a breaker trip or loose connection. If the motor runs but the gate doesn’t move, the gears may be stripped. We can replace the motor, gears, or control board, and we always test the gate’s balance before leaving.
