EZ Fencing | Reliable Privacy Fence Installation in Moses Lake, WA

Moses Lake's high humidity and proximity to alkaline lake water accelerate corrosion on standard metal hardware. We see this especially in neighborhoods near the lake shore. Using galvanized or stainless steel hardware from the start prevents rust, and we can retrofit existing fences with these materials.

Look for widespread rotting at ground level, loose posts that wiggle, or rust bubbles on metal components. In areas like the neighborhoods around Blue Heron Park, we often find that posts have compromised concrete footings. If multiple sections sag or lean, a full replacement or concrete footing upgrade is more cost effective than repeated repairs.

First, remove rust with a wire brush and treat with a rust converter. Then replace with marine-grade stainless steel hinges and use galvanized screws. For gates near the lake or in high-moisture spots, we recommend applying a clear sealant annually. We also check the gate’s alignment and concrete post foundation to reduce stress on the hardware.
