Residential Fencing Clarksville TN | Call Marcello's Home Maintenance

Leaning posts are often caused by soil saturation and freeze-thaw cycles during Clarksville's spring. The ground becomes soft, and shallow-set posts lose their grip. Our carpenters solve this by removing the affected posts, digging new holes below the frost line, setting them in concrete, and ensuring proper drainage. We also inspect the entire fence to prevent future leaning.

Rotted bottom boards are typically caused by moisture from the humid Tennessee climate and contact with wet soil. This is a common issue in Clarksville. In most cases, we can perform a partial repair by replacing only the rotted pickets and rails. We treat the remaining wood with a sealant and install rot-resistant cedar or treated lumber. If the posts are also compromised, we might recommend a full section replacement. We'll inspect your fence to give you the most cost-effective solution.

Sagging gates are often due to loose hinges, warped wood from humidity, or posts that have shifted. Our typical fix involves reinforcing the gate frame with a tension cable or diagonal brace, replacing heavy-duty hinges, and ensuring the latch post is perfectly plumb. We also check for ground clearance issues caused by settling. This service restores function and prevents further damage to your gate.
