FAQs
What causes termite damage to wooden fences and decks in Athens, AL?
Termites are attracted to moisture and cellulose in wood. In Athens' humid climate, poorly drained soil or wood-to-ground contact creates ideal conditions. Cortez Construction recommends using pressure-treated lumber or composite materials and ensuring proper drainage to prevent infestations.
How can I tell if my fence posts are eroding from poor drainage?
Signs include leaning or shifting posts, cracks in concrete around posts, and water pooling nearby. If left unchecked, posts can rot and collapse. Cortez Construction offers free inspections to assess drainage issues and reinforce or replace affected posts.
What solutions does Cortez Construction offer for termite-damaged or eroded deck and fence structures?
They replace damaged wood with termite-resistant materials like composite or treated lumber, improve drainage around posts, and install physical termite barriers. For decks, they can repair or replace joists, railings, and decking boards to ensure safety and longevity.
