Avila's Fence | Professional Commercial Fencing in Sacramento, CA

Gate misalignment in Sacramento is often caused by soil expansion and contraction, especially in areas like the Pocket or Greenhaven. Seasonal moisture changes can shift posts. Signs include a gate dragging on the ground or not latching. Our solution is to readjust or reset the posts, replace damaged hinges, and ensure proper clearance. We can also install a gate support wheel for heavy gates to prevent future sagging.

After wildfire exposure, common in neighborhoods near the American River Parkway, ash and heat can warp wood, crack vinyl, or discolor metal. Signs include charring, brittle boards, or failing fasteners. We assess the damage: light soot may only need pressure washing and a new stain, while burnt sections require replacement. We also recommend weatherproofing to seal against future moisture and smoke residue.

Paint or stain is essential for UV protection, but it's not enough alone if your fence already has wear. In areas like Natomas, where sun and wind are intense, we first repair any loose boards or nail pops, then apply a high-quality exterior stain with UV blockers. For longer life, we also recommend weatherproofing treatments that repel water, as Sacramento's wet winters can cause rot under old paint.
