Fencing Company Daphne AL | Call Gafford Construction Services

Wood fence rot in Daphne is primarily caused by the area's high humidity and frequent rain, which leads to moisture seeping into untreated wood. Over time, this breaks down the wood fibers, creating an environment for fungi and decay. Our solution involves removing the rotted sections, treating the surrounding area, and replacing the damaged wood with pressure-treated lumber. We also apply a water-repellent sealant to prevent future moisture damage.

Signs of termite damage include hollow-sounding wood when tapped, tiny holes in the fence surface, sawdust-like droppings near the base, and mud tubes on the posts. If you spot these, it's important to act quickly. Gafford Construction Services can inspect the affected area, remove termite-damaged sections, and install new, treated wood. We can also suggest adding a physical or chemical barrier to discourage future infestations.

Yes, we offer fence weatherproofing services that include cleaning, applying a wood preservative, and sealing with a high-quality waterproof stain. This process helps repel moisture and makes the wood less attractive to pests. For existing fences showing early signs of wear, weatherproofing is a cost-effective way to extend their lifespan by several years.
