J&H Construction and Remodeling | Reliable Fence Contractors in Mercerville, NJ
Mercerville, NJ 8619
Company Profile
J&H Construction and Remodeling, serving Mercerville, NJ, offers expert general contracting, roofing, and fencing services. A common local issue in Mercerville is the instability of wooden fences due to the area's heavy clay soil and frequent freeze-thaw cycles, which can cause posts to shift, rot, or lean. J&H resolves this by installing deep-set, concrete-anchored fence posts and using durable, weather-resistant materials like pressure-treated lumber or vinyl. Conveniently located near the Mercerville Shopping Center and the Mercerville Fire Department, the team provides reliable, long-lasting solutions for homeowners seeking sturdy boundaries and secure properties.
Questions and Answers
What causes fence posts to lean in Mercerville's clay soil, and how does J&H Construction fix that?
In Mercerville, clay soil expands when wet and contracts when dry, causing wooden posts to shift. Over time, repeated freeze-thaw cycles accelerate the leaning. J&H Construction solves this by setting each post three feet deep in concrete, which creates a stable base that resists soil movement. We also use galvanized brackets to prevent rot where the wood meets the ground.
How can I tell if my roof has hidden damage after a Mercerville storm, and what is your solution?
Look for curling or missing shingles, water stains on your ceilings, or granules in your gutters. Mercerville storms often bring heavy rain and wind that lift shingles. At J&H Construction, we provide free roof inspections to spot these signs early. Our solution includes prompt repairs, full re-roofing with Class 4 impact-resistant shingles, and proper flashing around valleys and chimneys to prevent leaks.
You offer both fencing and general contracting—what service helps stop neighbors' dogs from getting through a damaged fence?
A damaged or leaning fence with gaps is a common escape route for pets. J&H Construction's fencing service can replace old boards, tighten loose rails, or install a new pressure-treated or vinyl fence that contours to your yard's slope. Since the fence is anchored deep in concrete, it stays straight and secure, keeping your dogs safely inside and unwanted critters out.
