Reliable Fence Contractors in Aumsville, OR 97325 - Jimco Fence

The main cause is prolonged moisture from rain and damp soil. When wood isn't properly sealed or set in concrete with good drainage, water seeps in and accelerates rot. Jimco Fence prevents this by using pressure-treated lumber and applying weatherproofing coatings during installation.

Look for peeling or cracking paint, soft spots in the wood, or rust on metal components. If your gate sags or sticks, that's a sign of hinge or post issues. Jimco Fence offers inspections and can recommend sealing, staining, or targeted repairs to extend your fence's life.

Sagging often results from loose hinges, a settling post, or heavy weight. Jimco Fence can tighten or replace hinges, reset the post, or install an anti-sag kit. For long-term reliability, they also offer automatic gate options that reduce wear on manual components.
