Shepherd Fence Company | Trusted Fence Installation in Cassatt, SC

Cassatt's clay-heavy soil retains moisture, which accelerates wood rot, especially when posts are set directly into the ground. This is a common cause of fence failure here. Our solution is to use pressure-treated lumber rated for ground contact and to install a gravel base at the bottom of each post hole to improve drainage, significantly extending the life of your fence.

If your automatic gate is sticking, it's often due to a sagging hinge or debris in the track. In Cassatt, shifting soil can also misalign the gate posts. We'll inspect the hinges, track, and motor alignment. Our repair service includes adjusting the gate frame, lubricating moving parts, and realigning the posts if needed, ensuring smooth operation.

The high humidity and frequent rain in Cassatt can cause wood to warp, swell, and rot. Our weatherproofing service involves cleaning the fence, applying a high-quality wood sealer or stain, and caulking any joints. We also recommend annual maintenance checks. For metal gates, we apply a rust-inhibiting primer and paint to prevent corrosion.
