Professional Wood and Vinyl Fencing in Augusta, GA 30904 - Priority Decking & Fence

Augusta's sandy soil and frequent heavy rain often wash away the ground around fence posts, causing them to loosen and lean. At Priority Decking & Fence, we solve this by excavating the affected post, adding gravel for drainage, and setting it in fresh concrete. For severe cases, we recommend a full deck or fence replacement with rot-resistant materials. We’ve resolved this for many homeowners near the Savannah River, restoring stability that lasts through storm season.

Look for soft or spongy spots when you walk, visible cracks, splintering, or nails popping up. On the underside, check for rot near the ground—especially in Augusta's humid climate. If less than 25% of the deck is damaged, repair is usually enough. For widespread rot or wobbly railings, replacement is safer. We inspect the full structure and give you a straightforward recommendation, whether you’re in West Augusta or closer to Fort Eisenhower.

Yes, in most cases we can replace individual panels or posts if the rest of the fence is still sound. We match the style, height, and material so it blends with your existing fence. However, if multiple posts are leaning or the concrete footings are cracked, a full replacement may be more cost-effective long-term. We’ll assess your fence on site and explain your options clearly—no pressure.
