Q&A

What causes termite damage to fences around Hammond?

Termites thrive in our humid Louisiana climate, especially in wooden fences near moist soil or decaying stumps. They tunnel through the wood, weakening fence posts and rails from the inside out. Over time, untreated wood near the ground becomes a prime target.

How can I tell if my fence has termite damage?

Look for soft or hollow-sounding wood when tapped, mud tubes along the base, or small piles of sawdust. Posts may lean or feel loose. In Hammond, if you spot these signs near the ground, it's time for a professional inspection.

How do you repair hurricane-damaged fencing in Hammond?

We assess all structural damage, replace broken or splintered boards, and reset or replace loose posts with concrete footings. For hurricane-prone areas around Hammond, we recommend pressure-treated lumber and proper bracing to withstand future storms.
