GM Outdoor Contractor - Atlanta's Experienced Fencing Company

The main cause is Atlanta's high humidity and frequent rain, which traps moisture in the wood, leading to rot at the base or near the soil line. Signs include soft, dark spots, peeling paint, and a musty smell. We offer repair by replacing only the damaged sections, or if the rot is widespread, we recommend installing new pressure-treated or composite fence posts and panels. Our team always checks for proper drainage and may suggest adding gravel or a concrete base to prevent future rot.

If you notice leaning posts, loose pickets, or a sagging gate after high winds, first check for any immediate safety hazards. Common signs are cracks in wooden rails or that the gate won't latch properly. As a solution, we can reinforce the fence with metal brackets, replace broken sections, or install new manual gate latches and hinges. For persistent issues, we recommend upgrading to stronger materials like vinyl or metal, which better withstand Atlanta's gusty storms.

Absolutely. After we fix or install your fence and gate, we can restore the surrounding area. This includes shrub care—like pruning overgrown branches near the fence—or replanting damaged shrubs. We also handle concrete and masonry work, such as repairing a cracked patio or walkway next to the fence line. For long-term health, we can adjust your irrigation system to keep new plants watered without soaking the fence posts.
