Fencing Company Agawam MA | Call ANDI Services

The main cause is moisture. In Agawam, we get a lot of rain and snow, and combined with freeze-thaw cycles, water seeps into the wood. If the deck isn't properly sealed or built with good drainage, that moisture gets trapped, leading to rot. Our deck construction and repair services use pressure-treated lumber and proper flashing to keep water out.

Look for widespread rot at the base of the posts, large cracks that go all the way through the wood, or sections that are loose and leaning significantly. If more than 30% of your fence has these issues, replacement is usually more cost-effective. We offer fence replacement and can match the style of your neighborhood near the Agawam River or Silver Lake.

The best solution is to have it weatherproofed right after installation. We apply a high-quality stain or sealant that repels water and resists UV damage. This is especially important if you live near the Connecticut River where humidity is higher. Our fence weatherproofing service includes a thorough cleaning and two coats of sealant to keep your fence looking good for years.
