Cst Property Services - Melbourne's Trusted Wood and Vinyl Fencing

Storm-heavy rain and wind can saturate the soil, causing fence posts to lean or loosen in the ground. The most common sign is a post that wiggles or tilts. We solve this by reinforcing existing posts with concrete or replacing damaged ones with pressure-treated wood set deep in compacted gravel. Our fence repair service also checks surrounding boards for storm-related warping.

Florida's humidity and frequent rain cause wood to absorb moisture and then dry out, leading to warping. Signs include cupping, twisting, or gaps between boards. We recommend using kiln-dried, pressure-treated lumber for new installations. For existing fences, we can replace warped boards and apply a high-quality stain or sealer for weatherproofing.

Yes, we offer fence and gate weatherproofing for both manual and automatic gates. This involves applying a waterproof sealant or stain to all wood surfaces, checking for weak spots, and ensuring gate hinges and latches are secure. We also recommend annual inspections after hurricane season to catch minor issues before they become major problems.
