Andys Fence - Peoria's Best Privacy Fence Installation

Gate misalignment is common in Peoria due to the expansive clay soil, which shifts significantly during seasonal monsoons and dry spells. This movement causes posts to tilt or sink, throwing the gate off balance. Our solution involves adjusting the hinges, repositioning the posts with a concrete footer that extends below the frost line, and reinforcing the frame to prevent future shifting. We also check for proper leveling to ensure smooth operation.

Look for fading color, dry or splintering wood, and visible grain separation, especially on south-facing panels that get direct afternoon sun. In Peoria, UV rays are intense, so untreated wood can become brittle after just one season. Fading is the earliest sign; if left unchecked, moisture from monsoon storms can cause warping and rot. We recommend a high-quality, UV-blocking stain to extend your fence's life.

Most sun-damaged fences can be repaired rather than replaced. If the wood is only faded or lightly cracked, we can clean, sand, and apply a restorative stain with UV protection. For areas with deep splits or rot, we replace individual boards and match the existing style. We also apply a weatherproof sealant to all exposed surfaces, shielding the fence from future sun and monsoon damage.
