Question Answers
Why does my automatic gate stop working during Stillwater winters?
Freeze-thaw cycles can cause ice buildup in the gate’s track or motor housing, leading to electrical shorts or mechanical jams. Hicks Electric Gate Service & Repairs can install weatherproof covers, adjust limit switches, and apply anti-ice coatings to keep your gate operating smoothly even in subzero temperatures.
My wooden fence posts are leaning after the spring thaw—what’s the cause and how can you fix it?
Repeated freezing and thawing of the soil around fence posts can loosen the ground, causing posts to shift. Hicks offers fence repair services that include re-setting posts with concrete footings below the frost line, plus weatherproofing treatments to prevent future moisture damage.
Can you repaint or stain my fence to protect it from Stillwater’s humidity and snow?
Absolutely. We provide fence painting and staining using exterior-grade sealants that resist moisture and UV damage. Proper weatherproofing extends the life of your fence by years, especially in areas near the St. Croix River where humidity is higher.
