Frequently Asked Questions

What causes fence damage in West Columbia's climate?

Our high humidity, frequent rain, and occasional storms cause wood to rot, warp, or split over time. Termites and fungal growth also thrive in moist conditions, weakening fence posts. Steel and iron gates can rust if not properly coated. MJK addresses these issues by using weather-resistant materials like pressure-treated pine, cedar, or vinyl, and applying protective sealants to metal components.

What are signs my automatic gate needs repair?

Common signs include slow or jerky movement, unusual grinding noises, the gate reversing halfway, or the remote not working. You might also notice the gate sagging or dragging on the ground. These issues often stem from worn gears, misaligned tracks, or electrical sensor problems. Our technicians diagnose the root cause and can repair or replace motors, hinges, or control boards to restore smooth operation.

How can MJK Home Services help with my fence repair?

We start with a free inspection to assess the damage—whether it's a few loose pickets, a leaning section, or rotted posts. For minor repairs, we replace damaged boards and reinforce posts. For extensive issues, we may recommend partial or full replacement with durable options like vinyl or chain-link. We also install new fences and gates, including automatic openers, tailored to your property's layout and local building codes.
