Questions and Answers
How do you prevent wood fence warping in the Texas heat?
In Taylor, the combination of intense sun and high temperatures can cause wood to warp over time. At Gilbert's Fence, we address this by using pressure-treated lumber and setting posts at a minimum depth of 24 inches with concrete to ensure a stable foundation. We also recommend a weatherproofing sealant or stain to reduce moisture absorption and UV damage, which helps maintain the fence's shape and appearance.
Can you install a custom gate that fits a non-standard opening?
Yes, we build all gates on-site to fit your exact measurements, whether it's a manual or automatic gate. Our posts for gates are set at least 28 inches deep with concrete to provide strong support. We can handle any size or style, from standard walk gates to wider driveway gates, and we also offer automatic gate installation for added convenience.
How do I get a free estimate for fence repair or installation?
You can get a free estimate by phone, email, or text. Just let us know the approximate footage or describe the repair needed. We'll provide a quote based on your project. We handle all types of fence repairs, including fixing hardware failures—a common issue in our area—as well as replacing damaged boards or posts.
