FAQs

My wooden fence in Plains has developed rot near the ground after winter. How can you fix this?

Rot usually happens because of moisture trapped against the wood, especially after freeze-thaw cycles common in Plains. We’ll replace any rotted boards, treat the remaining wood with a preservative, and apply a waterproof sealant. For long-term protection, we recommend annual weatherproofing, which we can do as part of our fence weatherproofing service.

My automatic gate near the Plains Industrial Park isn’t opening fully. What could be wrong?

This is often caused by a sensor misalignment or a worn motor after heavy use or cold weather. We’ll inspect the gate’s tracks, hinges, and electrical connections. If needed, we can recalibrate the sensors, repair the motor, or replace any damaged parts. Our automatic gate repair service covers all common issues so your gate works smoothly again.

I want to stain my fence to match my home near Plains Park, but it’s peeling. Should I paint over it?

Peeling stain usually means the previous coat wasn’t compatible with the wood type or it wasn’t cleaned properly before application. Painting over peeling stain won’t last. We’ll strip the old finish, clean and sand the fence, and apply a high-quality stain matched to your home’s color. If you’d prefer paint, we offer fence painting as well — either way, we prepare the surface so the new finish holds up.
