Ghalls Commercial And Residential Services: Fences & Gates in Baltimore, MD

Baltimore's humid summers, freeze-thaw cycles in winter, and frequent rain can accelerate wood rot, especially if posts are set directly in soil without proper drainage or treatment. Many older fences in neighborhoods like Locust Point and Hampden were built with untreated lumber, making them prone to decay. Our solution is to replace rotted posts with pressure-treated or rot-resistant wood and install gravel drainage at the base to extend fence life.

Signs that your gate needs attention include sagging, difficulty latching, visible rust on metal gates, or cracked wood panels. If the gate frame is still structurally sound but hinges or hardware are worn, we can often repair it. However, if the gate is dragging on the ground or the frame is warped, replacement may be more cost-effective. We'll inspect your gate in Baltimore and give you an honest recommendation.

Absolutely. We install and repair all types of doors, including entry doors, storm doors, and sliding patio doors. If your door is drafty, sticking, or has a broken frame, it could be due to settling in older Baltimore rowhomes. Our team can adjust hinges, replace weatherstripping, or install a brand-new door to improve energy efficiency and security.
