Frequently Asked Questions
My wooden fence is leaning and has rotted posts near the base. What causes this, and how can GRASS GRABBERS fix it?
Leaning fences with rotted posts are often caused by moisture trapped at the base due to poor drainage or lack of weatherproofing. Over time, Iowa’s freeze-thaw cycles worsen the damage. GRASS GRABBERS can diagnose the issue, remove and replace rotted posts, and regrade the soil if needed to improve drainage. We also offer fence repair, weatherproofing, and staining to protect your fence from future moisture damage, extending its life for years.
My automatic gate is slow and makes a grinding noise. Is this a sign of a serious problem?
Yes, a slow, grinding gate often indicates worn gears, a failing motor, or misaligned tracks. Ignoring it can lead to a complete gate failure or safety hazard. GRASS GRABBERS provides automatic gate repair and manual gate repair in Des Moines. We’ll inspect the gate mechanism, lubricate moving parts, adjust alignment, and replace any damaged components to restore smooth, quiet operation.
What’s the best way to prevent shrubs and trees from damaging my fence or irrigation system?
Overgrown shrubs and trees can push against fences, causing leaning or rot, and their roots can clog or break irrigation lines. Regular pruning and trimming keep plants in check. GRASS GRABBERS offers shrub pruning, tree trimming, and shrub removal services. We also provide irrigation repair and maintenance to address any root intrusion or line damage. Proper spacing during landscape design can prevent these issues from the start.
