Top-Rated Residential Fencing in Palestine, TX 75801 - Double J Fencing Construction

The main cause is high winds putting pressure on fence panels, combined with posts that may not be set deep enough or have rotted at the base. Over time, the soil around posts can loosen, making them unstable. A common sign is a fence that leans or has a gap where the bottom rail lifts off the ground. Double J Fencing Construction can fix this by resetting or replacing the posts with concrete footings and reinforcing the frame to withstand future wind events. We serve neighborhoods near Palestine High School and along I-84.

Signs include a gate that sags, drags on the ground, or doesn't latch properly. Wind can twist the frame or loosen hinges and hinges can also rust from moisture. Double J can tighten or replace hinges, adjust the frame, and add a latch that holds securely. If the gate is beyond repair, we can install a new one that matches your existing fence. We work on gates in residential areas around Palestine like those on Oakwood Drive and near the Museum of East Texas.

Yes, staining or weatherproofing seals the wood, preventing moisture absorption that causes rot and weakening. A dry, sealed board is stronger and less likely to crack in high winds. It also protects against sun damage. Double J offers fence and gate weatherproofing as a separate service, and we can apply it after repairs or as a standalone preventive measure. This is especially helpful for homes near open fields in western Palestine where wind exposure is higher.
