Montes Construction - Bainbridge Island's Expert Fence Contractors

Moisture from rain and coastal humidity, combined with certain soil types around Bainbridge Island, can accelerate rot and erosion in wooden fence posts. Poor drainage or lack of proper post bases often worsens the problem. Montes Construction addresses this by using pressure-treated lumber, concrete footings, and metal post anchors to protect against moisture damage.

Signs include visible rot, soft or spongy wood, loose or leaning posts, rusted fasteners, cracked boards, and gates that sag or stick. On Bainbridge Island, regular inspections after rainy seasons are recommended. If you notice any of these issues, it's best to call Montes Construction for an assessment before the damage worsens.

Broken gate hinges are often due to heavy use, rust, or misalignment. Montes Construction can replace or reinforce hinges with heavy-duty stainless steel or galvanized models suited for Bainbridge Island's coastal environment. They also check the gate's frame and alignment to prevent future issues, ensuring smooth operation and lasting durability.
