Residential Fencing Columbia MO | Call Lil Bit About A Lot

Look for leaning posts, loose or missing boards, rusted gate hinges, and wood rot near the ground. After a heavy rain or freeze-thaw cycle, check for gaps or sagging sections. These issues can worsen quickly with Columbia’s humidity, so early attention prevents costly replacements.

We assess the cause first—whether it’s moisture rot, frost heave, or wind damage. For wood fences, we replace rotten posts with pressure-treated lumber and reset them in concrete. For gates, we realign hinges and reinforce frames. Our solutions are tailored to withstand Columbia’s seasonal changes.

Sagging often results from wood swelling in humidity or post movement from freeze-thaw cycles. The solution involves adjusting the gate’s frame, adding anti-sag kits, and ensuring posts are set deep enough. We also use galvanized hardware to resist rust, common in our area’s damp conditions.
