Frequently Asked Questions
How do you handle chain link fence corrosion in Hewitt’s climate?
Hewitt’s humidity and occasional heavy rains can cause chain link fences to rust over time. At Bear Construction, we combat this by using galvanized steel or vinyl-coated chain link, and we apply a weatherproof sealant during installation. For existing fences, we offer corrosion removal, repainting with rust-inhibitive paint, and regular maintenance to extend the fence’s life. We also recommend annual inspections to catch early signs of rust.
What types of gates do you install, and how do you prevent sagging?
We install both manual and automatic gates for residential and commercial properties. Gate sagging is a common issue we address by using heavy-duty hinges, reinforced posts set in concrete, and proper bracing. For automatic gates, we ensure the opener is correctly sized and aligned. Our team evaluates the soil and gate weight to design a solution that stays level and operates smoothly for years.
Can you design and build a patio cover that matches my home’s style?
Absolutely. We offer custom patio cover installation in Hewitt, from attached pergolas to freestanding ramadas. Our design services include material selection (wood, metal, or vinyl) and color choices that complement your home. We also handle cleaning, repair, and staining of existing patio covers. We work with you to create a comfortable outdoor living space that fits your budget and local building codes.
