McGurk’s Fencing and Land Development | Local Fence Contractors in Baskin, LA

Gate misalignment is often caused by loose hinges, settling posts, or heavy gates that strain the hardware. At McGurk’s Fencing and Land Development, we inspect the post foundation and hinge points, then adjust or replace hardware as needed. For heavier gates, we may recommend reinforcing the post or installing a wheel kit to take the weight off the hinges. Our manual gate installation includes proper bracing to prevent future sagging.

Fence staining deteriorates mainly due to UV exposure, moisture, and temperature swings, common in Baskin’s humid climate. The solution starts with cleaning the wood to remove dirt and mildew, then applying a high-quality stain that seals the wood. We also offer fence installation with pre-treated materials that resist staining issues longer. For existing fences, we can recommend and apply a UV-resistant stain to extend the life of your fence.

Yes, we can install an automatic gate on most existing fences as long as the structure is sound. The process includes mounting the gate operator, running power to the unit, and setting up safety sensors. We also check that the gate swings freely and aligns properly before programming the opener. If your fence posts need reinforcement, we’ll handle that too. Our team provides a full walkthrough of the system so you know how to use it.
