KimCo Home Solutions - DeLand's Trusted Commercial Fencing

The high humidity and frequent rain in DeLand create ideal conditions for moisture to seep into wood fences. When wood stays wet for long periods, especially at the base where it contacts the ground, it begins to rot. Poor drainage, lack of proper sealing, and direct soil contact accelerate the process. KimCo Home Solutions can inspect your fence and recommend rot-resistant materials or treatments to prevent future damage.

Gate sagging in DeLand is often due to moisture damage at the hinge points or posts. When the wood absorbs moisture from rain or ground contact, it swells and weakens. Over time, the hardware loosens and the gate droops. KimCo Home Solutions can reinforce your gate with moisture-resistant hardware, adjust the posts, or replace the gate with a more durable material like vinyl or treated lumber that handles humidity better.

First, we assess the extent of the rot. For minor damage, we can replace only the affected boards and apply a weather-resistant sealant. For severe rot, we recommend replacing the entire fence section with pressure-treated wood or a low-maintenance material like vinyl. Our team works efficiently in neighborhoods close to Stetson University and the historic district, ensuring your property looks good and stays secure against DeLand’s humid conditions.
