Fence Systems STL: Expert Fence Builders Serving Saint Louis, MO 63127

Saint Louis’s hot, humid summers and freeze-thaw winters cause moisture to get trapped in wood, leading to rot. Signs include soft spots, discoloration, or peeling paint. Fence Systems STL can replace rotted boards, apply a weatherproofing sealant, and recommend a stain that resists moisture. We also check your fence’s drainage to prevent future damage.

Common causes include a misaligned sensor, worn gears, or electrical issues after a storm. If your gate jerks or reverses unexpectedly, it’s often a sensor or track problem. Fence Systems STL will inspect the motor, lubricate moving parts, and test sensors to get your gate working smoothly again. We also offer routine maintenance to prevent future breakdowns.

Salt from winter roads and high humidity can cause rust on metal fences. Look for orange spots or flaking paint. Fence Systems STL will sand down rust, apply a rust-inhibiting primer, and paint or stain your fence with a weatherproof finish. We also recommend annual inspections to catch early signs of corrosion, especially near the Central West End or Forest Park areas.
