Residential Fencing Granite City IL | Call Castillo Protective Fences

Fence rail separation is often caused by ground movement from freeze-thaw cycles or heavy winds common in Granite City. The rails can pull away from posts over time, creating gaps. Our solution involves re-securing the rails with new screws or brackets, and if the wood is damaged, we replace the affected sections. This restores the fence's strength and prevents further separation.

Signs of loose fasteners include wobbling panels, visible gaps at connection points, and squeaking sounds when it's windy. Yes, we can repair these without replacing the whole fence. We tighten or replace the fasteners, and if the post is rotted, we reinforce it with concrete or a metal post anchor. This is a cost-effective fix that extends your fence's life.

Weatherproofing seals the wood against moisture, which is a major cause of swelling and warping that leads to rail separation. We apply a high-quality stain or sealant that protects against rain, snow, and humidity. This reduces the risk of fasteners loosening and keeps the fence structure stable through Granite City's changing seasons.
