Q&A
Why do my fence posts keep rotting and leaning after a Wakefield winter?
This is a common problem due to Wakefield's severe freeze-thaw cycles. Moisture gets into the wood, freezes, and expands, causing the posts to rot and lean. At Rnk Welding And Fabrication, we can repair or replace damaged posts with rot-resistant materials and apply proper weatherproofing to protect against future moisture damage. For a longer-term solution, we also install metal posts that are far more resistant to our harsh winters.
My metal gate is sagging and won't close properly. Can you fix it without replacing the whole thing?
Absolutely. Sagging gates are a typical result of heavy snow and ice loads here in Wakefield. Often, the hinges have pulled loose or the frame has twisted. We’ll inspect the gate, tighten or replace the hinges, and weld any weakened joints back into square. If the frame is structurally sound, we can reinforce it and rehang the gate. We always aim to repair before recommending a replacement.
How often should I have my wooden fence weatherproofed to last through the Lake Effect snow?
We recommend a fresh coat of weatherproofing stain or paint every two to three years, depending on the sun and snow exposure in your specific yard near Wakefield. This protects against moisture absorption and cracking during our long winters. Rnk Welding And Fabrication can do the painting or staining for you, using high-quality products that bond well with the wood and provide a lasting seal against the elements.
