Local Fence Installation in Monroe, GA 30655 - Dan's Fence Company

In Monroe, the first sign is usually small piles of sawdust near fence posts, especially along the wooded edges of neighborhoods like Alcovy Shores. You might also notice mud tubes on the wood surface or hollow-sounding spots when tapping. We check for soft wood around the post base, which is common in Monroe's humid climate.

We start by securing the area and removing broken pickets and rails for safety. For storm-damaged fence sections in Monroe, we replace any cracked or splintered wood with matching pressure-treated lumber. If posts have shifted due to wind or debris, we reset them in concrete and reinforce the connection points. Full panel replacements usually take less than a day, so your yard is secure quickly.

After repairing termite-damaged sections, we recommend treating the new wood with a borate-based preservative, which is a common approach in Monroe. We also advise replacing the bottom 6 inches of posts with concrete or using metal post sleeves at grade level. This keeps the wood above the soil and away from termite access points, which works well in our local clay soils near the Alcovy River.
