Salt City Enterprises: Expert Fence Installation Serving Grand Saline, TX 75140

Loose panels often result from moisture cycling that swells and shrinks wood, or from weakened nails after several seasons of freeze-thaw shifts. High winds common to our area can also loosen connections over time. Our fix involves re-securing the frame to the posts with corrosion-resistant screws, replacing any rotted sections, and then tightening the panel rails so the fence is solid again. We can also upgrade to heavier gauge brackets if that is a recurring issue on your property.

Rust on hinges, latches, or gate supports is usually caused by exposure to morning dew and summer humidity without proper protective coating. The solution starts with removing loose rust using a wire brush, applying a rust-inhibiting primer, and then recoating with a weather-resistant enamel paint. If hardware is severely pitted or weak, we recommend replacing it with galvanized or stainless steel components that resist corrosion much better in our Grand Saline climate. Regular touch-ups every couple of years also help.

Yes, we offer fence painting as part of our painting services. We start by pressure washing the wood to remove dirt and mildew, then apply a high-quality exterior acrylic paint or solid stain. This seals the wood, reducing moisture penetration that leads to warping and rot. For metal fences, we clean and prep the surface, then apply a rust-inhibitive paint system. A fresh coat every 3-5 years can significantly extend the life of any fence here in Grand Saline.
