MMT Fencing - St. Augustine's Top-Rated Commercial Fencing

The combination of high humidity, intense UV exposure, and salt air near the coast causes stain to peel, fade, or mildew faster than in drier climates. If your fence looks blotchy or the wood is graying, the protective coating has likely degraded. MMT Fencing addresses this by power-washing old stain, applying a wood conditioner if needed, and using high-quality, weather-resistant stains suited for Florida’s coastal environment. They can also seal and weatherproof the fence to slow future deterioration.

Look for cracked or splintered rails, loose pickets, leaning posts, or broken gates. If the damage is isolated and the posts are still solid, repair is usually the better option. MMT Fencing inspects the fence, tightens or replaces damaged hardware, reinforces weakened sections, and re-anchors posts as needed. They can also weatherproof the repaired areas to resist moisture from future storms. This approach saves money and preserves the existing fence structure.

For new installations, MMT uses treated lumber or durable materials that hold up better in high winds. They secure posts with concrete footings and space pickets to allow airflow, reducing wind load. For existing fences, weatherproofing involves applying a sealant that repels water and prevents rot, making the fence less likely to break when debris hits. They can also install reinforced gates with heavy-duty hinges. By addressing weak points upfront, the fence is more likely to survive storm season with minimal damage.
