American Shield Fencing: Experienced Residential Fencing Serving Holland, MI 49423

This is a common sign of moisture damage. Holland's heavy snow and freeze-thaw cycles cause wood to absorb water, then expand and contract. American Shield Fencing can help by applying a high-quality weatherproofing sealant or stain. For severely damaged boards, we offer targeted fence repair to replace split sections, preventing further decay and extending your fence's life.

The most likely cause is a sagging gate hinge or a post that has shifted due to soil movement or rot. This is a common issue in Holland's sandy soil near Lake Macatawa. Our solution includes tightening or replacing hinges, realigning the post, and installing a heavy-duty gate latch. We can also repair or replace the gate panel if it's warped, ensuring smooth operation.

Salt spray from Lake Michigan accelerates rust on metal fences, especially near Holland State Park or homes along the lakeshore. The sign of trouble is orange or brown spots. American Shield Fencing offers professional painting and staining services. We first sand down the rust, apply a rust-inhibiting primer, and then use a marine-grade paint to seal the metal. This prevents future corrosion and keeps your fence looking new.
