Landscape Barbers in Bay Area | Fence & Gate Installation and Repair

The Bay Area's fluctuating humidity and occasional heavy rains cause wood and composite fences to absorb moisture, leading to expansion, warping, and eventual sagging at gate hinges. Landscape Barbers addresses this by weatherproofing fences with appropriate sealants and performing gate repairs with heavier-duty hinges and posts set deep into stable soil, ensuring gates swing properly and stay aligned.

Look for gaps between pickets that widen after a rainy week, a gate that sticks or drags on the ground, and boards that appear to bulge or cup. If you notice these signs, call Landscape Barbers for a thorough inspection. We often spot hidden fastener rust or post rot early and can reinforce the structure before it becomes a costly fix.

Absolutely. During our landscape and fence design consultations, we recommend materials like treated pine with proper spacing, aluminum, or composite that handle moisture better. Our installation includes pressure-treated or concrete-set posts and galvanized hardware to resist rust. We also factor in drainage and sun exposure specific to your Bay Area neighborhood to minimize future expansion and sagging.
