Question Answers
Why does my fence hardware rust so quickly in Tacoma, and what can be done about it?
Tacoma’s proximity to the Puget Sound and frequent rain creates high humidity and salt air, which accelerates rust on standard steel fence hardware. Signs of rust include orange streaks on hinges and gate latches, stiff movement, and eventual breakage. The best solution is to replace all existing hardware with galvanized or stainless-steel components that resist corrosion. Master Maintenance Services can assess your fence, swap out rusted parts, and apply a protective coating to keep new hardware functioning smoothly for years.
How can I tell if my fence stain is deteriorating, and what’s the best way to restore it?
Common signs of stain deterioration include fading color, patchy spots, bare wood showing through, and mold or mildew growth. In Tacoma, moisture and shade from overhanging trees can speed up this process. The solution involves cleaning the wood with a pressure washer and a mildewcide solution, sanding any rough areas, then applying a high-quality, UV-resistant stain. Master Maintenance Services can handle the whole job, ensuring the stain penetrates deeply and protects your fence from Tacoma’s damp climate.
Can Master Maintenance Services also fix a fence gate that’s sagging or difficult to close?
Absolutely. A sagging gate is often caused by loose hinges, a warped frame, or settling posts. We inspect the entire gate assembly, tighten or replace hardware, and adjust the post alignment if needed. In many cases, we install heavy-duty hinges and a self-closing mechanism to prevent future drooping. Serving neighborhoods near the Tacoma Dome and along Ruston Way, we can get your gate swinging smoothly again in no time.
