Lewis Deck & Fence Staining - McDonough's Best Wood and Vinyl Fencing

Rusting fence hardware in McDonough is typically caused by high humidity, frequent rain, and acidic soil conditions. Signs include orange-brown stains on hinges, latches, or screws, and difficulty opening or closing gates. Our solution involves replacing rusted hardware with galvanized or stainless-steel components, then applying a protective coating. We also check for moisture traps and recommend routine sealing to prevent future corrosion.

Gate alignment issues often stem from loose hinges, warped posts, or settling soil—common in McDonough’s clay-heavy ground. You might notice the gate dragging or leaving a gap at the bottom. We fix this by tightening or replacing hinges, adjusting the post footing, and sometimes adding an anti-sag kit. For wooden gates, we may reinforce the frame. A properly aligned gate should swing freely and latch securely.

It depends on the extent of the damage. If only a few boards are rotted or warped, we can replace those sections and reseal the deck. However, if the joists or ledger board are compromised, or if there’s widespread decay, a full replacement may be safer and more cost-effective. We’ll inspect your deck, check for structural issues, and recommend the best option to match your budget and needs in McDonough.
