Fence Contractors Batavia IL | Call Complete Fence

Fence rail separation often results from moisture damage, temperature fluctuations, or poor initial installation. In Batavia’s climate, wood rails can swell and contract, pulling apart at joints. Complete Fence addresses this by reinforcing connections with corrosion-resistant hardware and replacing damaged sections. We also check for underlying issues like shifting posts to prevent recurrence.

Signs of corroded hardware include rust stains on wood or vinyl, loose hinges or latches, and difficulty opening gates. In Batavia’s humid summers and snowy winters, metal parts degrade faster. Complete Fence inspects all hardware, replacing it with galvanized or stainless steel options. We also apply protective coatings to extend longevity.

Yes, sagging gates are a common result of rail separation or corroded hinges. Complete Fence first diagnoses the root cause—whether it’s loose rails, worn hardware, or post settling. We then realign the gate, replace faulty parts, and add diagonal bracing if needed. This restores smooth operation and prevents future sagging.
