Q&A
What causes fence posts to lean or rot in Portland's climate?
Portland's frequent rain and heavy clay soil can cause wood posts to rot at the base and concrete footings to shift due to freeze-thaw cycles. Improper drainage or lack of gravel at the post base accelerates decay. Our team evaluates soil conditions and uses pressure-treated lumber, gravel bases, and concrete footings to prevent leaning and rot, ensuring your fence stays straight for years.
How do I know if my fence needs repair or full replacement?
If only a few boards are damaged or the gate sags, repair is often sufficient. But if more than 30% of the fence is rotted, leaning significantly, or has cracked rails, replacement is more cost-effective. We inspect your fence for structural integrity, checking for wood rot, rust on metal posts, and loose nails. We provide an honest assessment and transparent quote.
Can you stain or paint a new fence to match my home's exterior?
Absolutely! We offer professional staining and painting for wood, vinyl, and metal fences and gates. For wood, we recommend semi-transparent stains that protect against moisture and UV rays while allowing the grain to show. We can also paint custom colors to match your house or trim. Proper prep and high-quality coatings ensure long-lasting protection against Portland's rain.
