JMZ Business: Top-Rated Fencing Company Serving Orlando, FL 32821

Orlando’s sandy soil and heavy summer rain can cause the ground around fence posts to loosen over time. JMZ Business solves this by setting posts deeper—usually 24 to 30 inches—and using fast-setting concrete that locks the post in place. We also check for any water pooling around the base and install drainage gravel if needed. This prevents the post from shifting even during high winds from a typical Central Florida thunderstorm.

If the posts and main rails are still solid, we can often just replace the damaged pickets and clear the vegetation. JMZ first removes all vines and overgrowth from the fence line, then evaluates each post. For areas where roots or moisture have rotted the base, we replace individual posts without tearing down the whole fence. After repairs, we apply a weatherproof stain or sealant to protect the wood from future moisture and plant damage.

The key is a quality sealant that blocks UV rays and moisture. JMZ uses exterior-grade stains or paints with UV inhibitors and a waterproof topcoat. We sand the fence first to open the grain, apply a primer if needed, then two coats of finish. This keeps wood from cracking in the sun and prevents mold or rot from humidity. We also recommend an annual rinse and a quick inspection after hurricane season to touch up any bare spots.
