Question Answers
What types of fence materials do you recommend for Lakewood’s weather?
For Lakewood’s mix of snow, wind, and sun, we often recommend Western Red Cedar for its natural resistance to rot and warping. For added security, ornamental or chain link fencing with heavy-duty gate hardware holds up well against strong gusts. We also apply weatherproofing treatments to extend the life of any fence we install or repair.
How do you handle automatic gate repairs for properties near Belmar or Bear Creek Lake Park?
We service automatic gates throughout Lakewood, including neighborhoods near Belmar and Bear Creek Lake Park. Common issues like sensor misalignment or motor wear from frequent use are diagnosed quickly. Jim carries a range of replacement parts and can often complete repairs in a single visit, ensuring your gate operates smoothly and safely.
What should I do if my fence is damaged by heavy snow or wind in Lakewood?
Colorado winters can cause fence panels to lean or gates to sag. If you notice damage, call us for a repair assessment. We reinforce posts with concrete footings and use weatherproofing sealants to protect against moisture. For gates, we adjust hinges and replace hardware as needed to keep them swinging freely despite freeze-thaw cycles.
