Professional Fencing Company in Tuscaloosa, AL 35405 - American Fence Company

Humidity and frequent rain here can rust hinges and loosen hardware over time. Also, the sandy clay soil in areas like The Highlands or near the Black Warrior River can shift, pulling gate posts out of alignment. We rebuild the gate frame, replace worn hinges with heavy-duty ones, and reset the post if needed. We use galvanized fasteners and pressure-treated lumber to resist our local weather.

For high-traffic areas, we often install 6-foot vinyl privacy fencing or tongue-and-groove cedar. Both block noise and sight lines well. Vinyl needs little maintenance and stands up to Alabama humidity, while cedar can be stained or painted to match a home’s exterior. We also offer aluminum ornamental fencing if you prefer a more open look with added security.

Yes, we offer fence painting and staining for wood fences in Tuscaloosa. First, we clean the surface with a power washer and let it dry for 24 to 48 hours. Then we apply a weatherproof stain or exterior paint. For a standard 150-foot privacy fence, two crews can finish the job in one day. We always check the forecast to avoid painting right before rain.
