Top-Rated Commercial Fencing in Birmingham, AL 35221 - Grasselli Fence

The high UV index in Alabama causes the lignin in wood to break down, which gives the surface a weathered, gray appearance. This is a natural sign of oxidation and moisture loss. If left untreated, the wood can become brittle and prone to cracking. A UV-blocking stain or sealant applied by Grasselli Fence can restore the color and extend the life of your fence.

Sagging gates usually indicate that the hinges are loose, the gate frame is racking, or the gate post is leaning from soil movement common in our area. We check for post stability by testing for rot at ground level and examining the hinge screws. If the post is shifting, we may need to reset it with concrete or install a tension cable to square the frame. We'll adjust the latch so it aligns perfectly again.

Yes. Vinyl fences in Birmingham often develop a chalky, white haze from sun exposure and occasional mildew from our humidity. We clean the surface with a mild detergent and soft brush to remove dirt and mildew, then apply a specialized vinyl protectant that restores the original color and provides a UV-resistant layer. This treatment is safe, non-toxic, and typically lasts 12 to 18 months.
