Precision Contracting Enterprises: Top-Rated Wood and Vinyl Fencing Serving Cape Girardeau, MO 63701

The high humidity and occasional flooding near the Mississippi River can accelerate wood rot, especially in untreated posts. We often see this in older fences around neighborhoods like the Old Town Cape area. Our solution is to replace rotted posts with pressure-treated lumber or set them in concrete for better moisture resistance, ensuring your fence stays sturdy for years.

Sagging gates are common in Cape Girardeau, often due to heavy use or loose hinges, especially after a storm. The issue is usually a misaligned frame or worn hardware. We can tighten hinges, add a support brace, or replace the latch to get your gate swinging smoothly again—no need for a full replacement in most cases.

If you see isolated issues like a few cracked boards or a single leaning post, repair is usually enough—common for fences near windy spots like the Arena Building. But if multiple posts are rotting, the fence is leaning badly, or the wood is splitting across the entire run, a replacement may be more cost-effective and safer. We can inspect your fence and give you a straightforward recommendation.
