Handyman Services: Experienced Residential Fencing Serving McAllen, TX 78504

McAllen’s high humidity and frequent rain accelerate oxidation on uncoated or galvanized hardware. Salt in the air from nearby agricultural areas also contributes. Regular exposure to sprinklers can worsen the issue. We recommend using stainless steel or coated hardware and applying a rust inhibitor during installation.

Signs include leaning posts, loose rails, cracked or warped pickets, and gaps between panels. After a storm, check for nails that have popped out or hinges that are misaligned. If your gate sags or doesn’t latch properly, wind damage is likely. Call us for a thorough inspection.

We replace broken boards, reinforce posts with concrete, and install hurricane ties for extra stability. For metal gates, we replace rusted hinges with heavy-duty galvanized ones. Pressure washing the entire fence before repairs helps identify hidden damage and improves treatment adhesion.
