Dugas Fence | Fence & Gate Services in Melville, LA

The main cause is our high humidity and intense sunlight. The moisture in the air from the Atchafalaya Basin combined with UV rays breaks down the stain's protective barrier. This leads to fading, peeling, and eventual wood damage. Regular maintenance and using high-quality, UV-resistant stains are key to preventing this.

Look for obvious signs like broken or cracked boards, loose or missing pickets, and leaning posts. You should also check for less visible damage, such as splintered wood, separated joints, or nails that have popped out. If a storm has passed through, it's wise to give your fence a thorough inspection.

The solution depends on the extent of the damage. For minor issues, we can replace individual pickets or boards and reinforce the structure. For more significant damage, such as a leaning section or broken posts, a full repair or replacement of that section is often more effective. We assess the damage and recommend the most durable and cost-effective fix to restore your fence's integrity.
