Experienced Fence Installation in Indian Trail, NC 28079 - Matthews Fence

In Indian Trail, the main cause is the combination of high humidity, frequent rain, and temperature swings. Moisture seeps into untreated wood, leading to rot and warping. Additionally, storms can blow debris against fences, causing dents or breaks. Matthews Fence addresses this by offering weatherproofing services that seal wood and prevent moisture damage, as well as prompt repairs for storm-related issues.

Signs that your fence needs weatherproofing include visible peeling paint, cracks, or a spongy feel when pressed. If you notice large holes, leaning posts, or loose boards, a repair is likely needed. For gates, difficulty opening or sagging indicates repair is necessary. Matthews Fence can inspect your fence and recommend whether a simple weatherproofing treatment or a more involved repair is best, saving you time and money.

Automatic gates often fail due to power surges from lightning or water getting into electrical components. The best solution is to install a surge protector and ensure the gate's control box is properly sealed. Matthews Fence can replace damaged parts, re-seal the box, and test the system. For manual gates, we can reinforce hinges and posts to prevent sagging after heavy rain or wind.
