LSM CONSTRUCTION: Local Residential Fencing Serving Bellingham, WA 98226

Loose fence rails often result from Bellingham's damp climate, which can rot wood and loosen nails or screws. High winds also put stress on weaker connections. LSM CONSTRUCTION can tighten or replace rails, using galvanized hardware and weather-resistant lumber to ensure a long-lasting repair. We'll also inspect adjacent posts and concrete footings to prevent future issues.

Common signs include a gate that sags, drags on the ground, or makes a grinding noise when opened. This usually means the hinge pins are rusted or the hinge leaves have pulled away from the post. LSM CONSTRUCTION can either repair the existing hinges or replace them with heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant options. For automatic gates, we also check the motor and sensors to ensure smooth operation.

Yes. We provide fence weatherproofing, including staining, sealing, and applying protective coatings to resist moisture and UV damage. This is especially important in Bellingham's rainy climate. Our team can also add metal caps to post tops and install drainage gravel at post bases to reduce rot. Pairing weatherproofing with annual maintenance can extend your fence's life by years.
