Fence Builders Piedmont SC | Call Palmetto Post And Picket

Piedmont’s humid subtropical climate and frequent rainfall create ideal conditions for moisture to seep into untreated wood. Additionally, pine beetles common in the area can weaken posts from the inside. Palmetto Post And Picket recommends using pressure-treated or cedar wood, plus setting posts in concrete with proper drainage to prevent rot.

Look for leaning posts, cracked or split rails, loose nails or screws, and visible rot near the ground. In Piedmont, after heavy storms, check for missing panels or gates that sag. If your fence wobbles when pushed, it’s time for a professional inspection. Palmetto Post And Picket offers free assessments to catch issues early.

We start by removing damaged sections and assessing the underlying posts. For Piedmont’s storm-prone weather, we replace rotted posts with galvanized steel or concrete-embedded wood. We then install new panels using corrosion-resistant hardware and sealant to protect against future moisture. Our team can often complete repairs within a day, minimizing disruption.
