Frequently Asked Questions

What causes fence rot and rust in Franklin, NJ, and how can Prefer Family Fencing help?

The main cause of fence rot and rust in Franklin is the area's high humidity combined with frequent freeze-thaw cycles. Moisture gets trapped in wood or seeps under paint, leading to decay, while metal components can rust. Prefer Family Fencing solves this by offering professional weatherproofing services, including sealing and staining wood fences, and applying rust-inhibiting coatings on metal gates. We also use materials designed for local conditions to extend your fence's lifespan.

What are the signs that my fence or gate needs repair or weatherproofing?

Common signs include peeling paint or stain, visible cracks or splinters in wood, rust spots on metal gates, sagging sections, or a gate that sticks when opening. You might also notice soft spots in wood, which indicates rot. If you see any of these, it’s time to call Prefer Family Fencing. We can assess the damage and recommend either repair or weatherproofing to prevent further issues.

Can Prefer Family Fencing install an automatic gate for my driveway in Franklin?

Yes, we specialize in automatic gate installation. Whether you need a sliding or swing gate, we handle the full setup, including wiring and safety sensors. Automatic gates add security and convenience, especially for larger properties near the Franklin area. We also offer repair services if your existing automatic gate stops working smoothly.
