FAQs
What causes fence posts to move so much in Manhattan Beach, and how do you fix it?
The sandy, loose soil common in neighborhoods near the Manhattan Beach Pier and the beachfront is the primary cause. Unlike clay soils, sand offers less resistance, so posts can shift under normal wind or gate weight. We fix this by removing the loose post, using a wider concrete base or specialized post anchors designed for sandy conditions, and ensuring proper drainage to prevent future movement.
My chain link fence is showing rust. Is that from the ocean air, and can you make it last longer?
Yes, the salt-laden air from the Pacific Ocean accelerates corrosion on chain link fences throughout Manhattan Beach, especially closer to the coast. We can repair rusted sections and apply a durable, anti-corrosive weatherproofing coating designed for coastal environments. If the damage is extensive, replacing the affected panels with galvanized or vinyl-coated chain link is a more long-term solution.
Does painting or staining my wood fence help with the local weather conditions?
Absolutely. The combination of sun, moisture, and salt air in Manhattan Beach can quickly dry out and warp wood fences. A high-quality exterior stain or paint acts as a protective barrier. We provide fence painting and staining services that seal the wood, preventing moisture damage and UV fading. This regular maintenance can significantly extend the life of your fence, especially in areas like the neighborhoods near downtown.
