Questions and Answers

How do you handle fence expansion damage and soil erosion around gate posts in El Cerrito?

In El Cerrito, moisture from fog and rain can cause wood fences to expand, while clay-rich soil often shifts, leading to post loosening. We address these local issues by using galvanized post anchors set in concrete with proper drainage gravel around the base. We also seal and weatherproof wood gates seasonally to minimize expansion. For existing damage, we realign gates, replace rotted posts, and install moisture barriers to prevent future problems.

Do you install automatic driveway gates for El Cerrito homes?

Yes, we specialize in automatic gate installation for residential and commercial driveways in El Cerrito. We handle everything from motor selection to sensor placement and keypad programming. Our team works with brands that are reliable for the Bay Area climate, and we ensure safety sensors meet current code requirements. We also offer upgrades to existing automatic systems.

Can you repair a gate that is stuck or not closing properly?

Absolutely. Stuck gates are common in El Cerrito due to post settlement or rusted hinges. We inspect the entire system—track, rollers, hinges, and alignment. For manual gates, we re-anchor posts and lubricate moving parts. For automatic gates, we check the motor, control board, and safety sensors. Most repairs are completed in a single visit, and we offer same-day response for urgent issues.
