Fence Builders Roanoke VA | Call Pro Fence Company

Roanoke’s humid summers and frequent rain can accelerate wood rot, especially in untreated lumber. Poor drainage around fence posts and ground contact also leads to decay. Pro Fence Company recommends using pressure-treated wood or low-maintenance vinyl to resist moisture. We also install proper post anchors and gravel bases to improve drainage and extend fence life.

Look for leaning sections, cracked or split wood, rusted nails, loose gates, and visible rot at the base of posts. After a storm, check for broken pickets or bent panels. If your fence wobbles when pushed or the gate drags, it’s time for an inspection. Pro Fence Company can assess the damage and recommend cost-effective repairs or a full replacement if more than 30% of the fence is compromised.

Many Roanoke neighborhoods, like those near Mill Mountain or in Wasena, have uneven terrain. Pro Fence Company uses step-down or racked panel techniques to follow the slope, keeping the fence secure and visually appealing. We also offer custom-built gates that operate smoothly on inclines. Our team surveys the property and adjusts post depths to account for frost heave and soil shifts common in the region.
