Privacy Fence Installation San Bernardino CA | Call Sammy's Construction

The main cause is the combination of intense sun and low humidity, which dries the wood unevenly, making boards cup or twist. Sammy's Construction counters this by using properly kiln-dried lumber, leaving adequate expansion gaps during installation, and applying a weather-resistant stain or sealer that limits moisture loss. If an existing fence is already warped, we can replace affected sections and reinforce the structure with treated posts set in concrete to resist thermal movement.

Common signs include orange-brown discoloration on hinges and gate latches, pitting on powder-coated surfaces, and difficulty opening or closing a gate due to swollen rust deposits. Our team inspects for corrosion around weld points and where metal touches wet soil. For minor rust, we grind the area, apply a rust-inhibiting primer, and repaint. For severely corroded parts, we replace hinges or posts with galvanized or stainless steel hardware that better resists our dry climate's occasional irrigation runoff.

Yes. As general contractors, we coordinate both projects efficiently. For a countertop installation, we measure and template your kitchen island or vanity, then cut, reinforce, and set the stone or solid surface, handling plumbing disconnect as needed. At the same time, our crew can swap a rusted gate for a new wood or metal version, re-hang it on galvanized hinges, and adjust the latch. We schedule the work so you're not waiting days between trades.
