Deck Construction & Fence Repair | Reynolds Fence & Outdoor in St Augustine, FL

Warping is often due to moisture absorption in our humid coastal climate, especially with untreated or low-grade lumber. Signs include curved, twisted, or bowed boards. As a solution, Reynolds Fence & Outdoor Construction uses premium kiln-dried wood or composite materials and installs with proper spacing and ventilation. For existing warped boards, we can selectively replace them or rebuild sections to restore the fence’s straight appearance and structural integrity.

St. Augustine's intense sun, salt spray, and frequent rain accelerate stain deterioration. You might notice flaking, fading, or blotchy patches within a year. To combat this, Reynolds recommends a semi-transparent or solid stain with UV blockers, applied after thorough cleaning and sanding. We also offer periodic re-staining services to maintain color and protection. For long-term low maintenance, our clients often choose pre-stained cedar or PVC fencing that resists moisture and sun damage.

Absolutely. Split boards and post rot are common in our area due to trapped moisture and poor drainage. Our team first inspects for underlying issues like inadequate flashing or ground contact. We then repair or replace affected decking and posts using rot-resistant materials like treated pine or tropical hardwoods. If the damage is widespread, we’ll guide you through a full deck replacement with proper joist spacing and waterproofing to prevent future problems—saving you from repeated fixes.
