Questions and Answers
What causes fence boards to warp in Tacoma, and how can G&I fix it?
Warping is often caused by moisture absorption and temperature fluctuations, common in Tacoma’s damp climate. Signs include bending, twisting, or gaps. G&I Fence and Deck Unlimited can replace warped boards with properly treated lumber or composite materials, and ensure correct spacing and fastening to prevent recurrence.
Why do gate latches fail frequently, and what’s the best solution?
Gate latch failures usually stem from sagging gates or misalignment due to settling posts. Over time, wood expands and contracts. G&I can realign the gate, reinforce hinges, and install heavy-duty latches. For persistent issues, they recommend upgrading to a self-latching or magnetic latch that withstands Tacoma’s weather.
Can G&I help with deck repair if the wood is warped or damaged?
Absolutely. Warped deck boards are a safety hazard and eyesore. G&I offers deck repair and replacement services, removing damaged boards and installing new pressure-treated or composite decking. They also check the substructure for rot, ensuring your deck is safe for years to come.
