Questions and Answers
What causes fence posts to rot so quickly around Doniphan, MO?
The main cause is prolonged exposure to moisture. Our area's high humidity, frequent rain, and proximity to the Current River often leave soil saturated. If your property has a plumbing leak or poor drainage, the ground around your fence posts stays wet even longer, accelerating decay.
What signs should I look for that indicate my fence has moisture damage from a plumbing issue?
Look for soft or spongy wood near the base of posts, leaning sections, or visible mildew and moss. If you notice unusually damp soil along the fence line during a dry spell, or a sudden increase in your water bill, these can be signs of a hidden leak. F&H Construction can perform a plumbing inspection to pinpoint the source.
How can a plumbing inspection help solve my fence rotting problem?
A plumbing inspection from F&H Construction identifies any underground leaks, broken irrigation lines, or drainage problems that keep your fence's foundation perpetually wet. Once we fix the moisture source, we can then recommend repairs or replacement fencing that will stand up to Doniphan's conditions, saving you money in the long run.
