Jellum Fence: Trusted Fence Repair & Installation in Gibsland, LA
2016 Hwy 794, Gibsland, LA 71028
Q&A
What causes metal fences to rust so quickly in Gibsland, and how can you fix it?
Metal fences rust due to constant exposure to moisture, humidity, and occasional flooding common in north Louisiana. Jellum Fence will inspect your fence, remove rust with a wire brush or sandblasting, apply a rust-inhibiting primer, and repaint with a weather-resistant coating. In severe cases, we recommend replacing rusted sections with galvanized or aluminum panels that resist corrosion better.
How can I tell if my wooden fence boards are warped beyond repair?
Look for boards that are cupped, bowed, or twisted—especially after a wet spring or dry summer. If the warp is minor (less than 1 inch over 6 feet), we can often sand and reseal the board. But if the wood has cracked or the warp is severe, replacement is more cost-effective. Jellum Fence will assess each board and suggest the most durable cedar or pressure-treated pine options for Gibsland’s climate.
What’s the best solution for a fence that has both rusted metal posts and warped wooden pickets?
A mixed-material fence requires a two-step approach. First, Jellum Fence will replace or reinforce rusted metal posts with galvanized steel or concrete-set posts. Then we’ll remove warped wooden pickets and install new, kiln-dried lumber with proper spacing to allow for expansion. We also recommend a sealant that protects against moisture and UV rays. Our goal is to give you a fence that lasts for years without constant maintenance.
