Fence Builders Neptune Beach FL | Call Fence Sense

The primary cause is salt air from the Atlantic Ocean, which accelerates rust on standard metal fences. Fence Sense addresses this by using corrosion-resistant materials like aluminum or specially coated steel, and they can apply protective sealants to existing fences to extend their life.

Common signs include a gate that sags, drags on the ground, or is difficult to latch. Hinges may also show rust or make squeaking noises. Fence Sense can inspect and replace hinges with marine-grade, stainless steel options that resist corrosion and hold up to coastal humidity.

Sandy soil and moisture can cause wooden posts to rot or concrete footings to shift. Fence Sense can replace damaged posts with pressure-treated wood or install metal post anchors set deep in concrete for stability. They also check for proper drainage around the posts to prevent future issues.
