Questions and Answers

How do you fix a fence gate that won't close properly in Burlingame?

Gate misalignment is common due to soil movement or aging hinges. We assess the posts and hardware, then adjust or replace hinges, rehang the gate, and sometimes install an anti-sag kit. For Burlingame's climate, we use galvanized or stainless steel components to prevent rust. The result is a gate that swings smoothly and latches securely.

What's the best way to protect my fence from weather damage in Burlingame?

We recommend cleaning the fence, then applying a high-quality semi-transparent stain or solid color sealant that resists water and UV rays. For redwood or cedar, we use oil-based stains that penetrate deeply. Regular reapplication every 2-3 years keeps the wood from graying or rotting, especially in Burlingame's coastal climate.

Can you repair water-stained drywall in my Burlingame home?

Yes. We cut out damaged sections, treat any mold or rot, then install new drywall, tape, mud, and sand to a smooth finish. We match the texture (e.g., knockdown or orange peel) to blend with existing walls. After priming, your wall is ready for paint. We also check for the water source to prevent recurrence.
