Common Questions

What usually causes a wooden fence gate to sag or drag along the ground in Lakeville?

In Lakeville, the main cause is our freeze-thaw cycle, which shifts fence posts over time. Wood also naturally expands and contracts with moisture and temperature changes. If the gate wasn't built with heavy-duty hinges or a tension cable, gravity eventually pulls it out of square.

What are the signs that my fence needs weatherproofing or staining?

Look for areas where wood looks gray or splintery, especially on the sunny side. If water soaks into the wood instead of beading up, or if you see patches of moss or mildew, the protective finish has worn off. Catching this early prevents expensive repair work.

How can Journey Fence help if my automatic gate stops opening or closing properly?

We diagnose the issue step by step. It could be a limit switch out of adjustment, a sensor blocked by debris, a failed motor, or a power surge that reset the control board. We repair most brands of automatic gates and have parts on hand for common models used in Lakeville.
