Question Answers
What causes fence post erosion in Rome, GA, and how can you fix it?
Rome’s heavy red clay soil holds moisture against wood posts, leading to rot and loose fences. You’ll often notice the post wobbling or leaning, especially after rain. Ortiz Fencing can replace eroded posts with pressure-treated lumber or set new galvanized steel posts in concrete to prevent future movement. For existing wood posts, we can dig them out, backfill with gravel for drainage, and re-set them—keeping your fence solid through all seasons.
My chain link fence has rust spots—what should I do?
Chain link fences in Rome often corrode due to humidity and occasional salt from road treatments near the Coosa River bridges. Small rust spots can be wire-brushed and sealed with galvanizing paint. If the corrosion has weakened the fabric or caused breaks, we can replace that section or the entire panel. Ortiz Fencing also offers full weatherproofing with anti-rust coatings to extend the life of your fence, keeping it functional and clean-looking.
How do I know if my automatic gate needs repair, or if it's a manual problem?
If your gate won’t open or close with the remote, check for power issues first. But if the gate moves slowly or makes grinding noises, the motor or gears may need lubrication or replacement. A manual gate that sticks or drags likely has a sagging hinge or a bent track. Ortiz Fencing can diagnose both automatic and manual gate issues on-site in Rome—whether you live near Mount Berry or the river district—and handle everything from simple adjustments to full motor swaps.
