Fencing Company Bismarck ND | Call New Horizons Contracting

Local soil conditions, including high clay content and moisture from snowmelt, cause wooden fence posts to rot prematurely. Signs include leaning posts and soft wood near the ground. New Horizons addresses this by using pressure-treated posts set in concrete with proper drainage, or by installing metal post bases for added durability. We also offer vinyl or chain-link alternatives that resist moisture damage, ensuring a long-lasting solution for Bismarck homeowners.

Common signs include loose railings, splintered wood, visible rot on the deck boards, and nails popping up. After harsh Bismarck winters, decks often suffer from freeze-thaw damage. For repair, we can replace individual boards and reinforce joists. If the structure is unstable or over 15 years old, replacement with composite decking or treated lumber provides better weather resistance. Our team will inspect your deck and recommend the most cost-effective option.

Yes, sagging gates from wind stress are common in Bismarck. We reinforce gates with heavy-duty hinges, diagonal bracing, and thicker framing. For new gates, we use stronger materials like welded steel or heavier-gauge aluminum framed with wooden panels. We also ensure the gate posts are set deep with concrete to withstand high winds. This provides a smooth, long-lasting operation without sagging.
