Trusted Fence Builders in Lakeland, FL 33810 - RNR Fencing

Fence erosion in Lakeland often results from heavy rainfall, poor drainage, and rising groundwater near areas like Lake Hollingsworth. The soil can wash away from around fence posts, causing them to lean or rot. RNR Fencing addresses this by excavating damaged posts, pouring concrete footings below the frost line, and backfilling with compacted gravel to improve drainage. We also recommend metal posts or vinyl fences for flood-prone properties.

Signs include vines squeezing through gaps, roots pushing against posts, and branches scraping or warping panels. In South Lakeland, overgrown bougainvillea and bamboo are common culprits. Look for rust on metal fences from trapped moisture, or soft, discolored wood near bushes. RNR Fencing can trim vegetation, install root barriers, and replace damaged sections to restore your fence’s strength.

For Lakeland’s climate, we recommend pressure-treated pine or cedar with a sealant for wood fences, and heavy-gauge aluminum or vinyl for areas prone to flooding and vegetation. These materials resist rot, rust, and warping better than untreated wood or thin chain link. RNR Fencing can help you choose the right option based on your property’s exposure near neighborhoods like Cleveland Heights or along the lakes.
