Bub's Trees Lawns and Beyond - Duvall's Experienced Residential Fencing

A common sign is a gate that sags or drags on the ground when you open or close it. This is often caused by a bent or corroded hinge. At Bub's Trees Lawns and Beyond, we can replace the hinge with a heavy-duty, weather-resistant model. If the gate post is also leaning, we can reset or reinforce it to prevent the problem from returning.

Yes, we can usually repair just the damaged section. After a storm, we assess whether the fence posts are broken or just leaning. If the wood is splintered or the post is rotted at the base, we'll replace that section with matching material. For Duvall fences, we often recommend adding extra bracing or using pressure-treated posts to better withstand future storms.

Weatherproofing involves applying a high-quality sealant or stain to the wood, which repels moisture and slows rot. While it won't stop a tree from falling on your fence, it does prevent the wood from becoming waterlogged and brittle. We recommend re-applying a weatherproof coating every 2-3 years, especially on fences in the Duvall area that are exposed to the elements.
