Fencing Company Lakeland FL | Call J & A Master Fence

Rust in Lakeland is mainly due to high humidity and frequent rain, which accelerate oxidation on standard galvanized chain link. Signs include orange-brown spots and weakened fabric. To prevent rust, choose a vinyl-coated or heavy-galvanized chain link. For existing fences, apply a rust-inhibitive primer and paint annually. At J & A Master Fence, we install corrosion-resistant materials and offer maintenance tips to keep your fence looking new.

Loose posts are common in Lakeland's sandy soil, especially after heavy rains. Signs include wobbling, gaps at the base, or a leaning fence. This not only looks unsightly but can also lead to collapse. The solution is resetting posts with concrete footings buried at least 2 feet deep. We assess the soil condition and use proper concrete mixes to ensure stability. Contact us for a free inspection if you notice any movement.

For minor rust, scrub the area with a wire brush, apply a rust converter, and then paint with a fence-specific enamel. For larger rusted sections, we can replace only the damaged fabric and tie wires. At J & A Master Fence, we also check for galvanic corrosion at connection points and recommend protective coatings. If the rust has compromised structural integrity, a full replacement might be more cost-effective long-term.
