Residential Fencing Summit IL | Call GM Landscaping Solution

The primary cause of rust on chain link fences in Summit is exposure to moisture, road salt from nearby streets like Archer Avenue, and fluctuating temperatures. If you notice orange or brown spots, that's a sign of rust. GM Landscaping Solution can repair your fence by removing rust, applying a rust-inhibiting primer, and repainting or staining it. For severe cases, we may recommend replacing sections or weatherproofing the entire fence to prevent future rust.

Freezing gate hardware is a common issue in Summit due to snow and ice buildup. Signs include slow operation or the gate not opening at all. Our solution involves inspecting and repairing the gate mechanism, lubricating moving parts with cold-weather grease, and adding weatherproofing seals. We can also install a heating element or adjust the gate's alignment to prevent ice from jamming the hardware, ensuring reliable operation all winter.

Absolutely. A manual gate that sticks or is difficult to open after freezing temperatures often has ice in the hinges or latch. We provide manual gate repair services, which include thawing and lubricating the hardware, checking for alignment issues, and applying weatherproofing treatments. In some cases, we may need to replace rusted hinges or adjust the gate post to ensure smooth operation. We'll also advise on preventive measures, like using a silicone-based lubricant before winter.
