Q&A
What causes fence post rot in Shreveport, and how can Skipper Fencing & Construction prevent it?
Fence post rot is common here due to our humid climate and frequent rain, which keeps soil moist. Skipper Fencing uses pressure-treated lumber and proper gravel drainage at the base of each post to reduce moisture contact, helping posts last longer even in Shreveport's wet conditions.
What are the signs of termite damage on a fence, and can you repair it?
Look for small mud tubes on the wood, hollow-sounding posts, or visible tunnels. Skipper Fencing can assess the damage and replace affected sections with termite-resistant materials like cedar or metal. If the infestation is active, we recommend treating the area first before repairs.
My gate is sagging and won't close properly—can you fix that for my Shreveport home?
Yes, sagging gates are often due to loose hinges or post movement from soil moisture. We can adjust or replace hinges, reinforce the frame, and reset the gate post if needed. We'll make sure it swings freely and latches securely, whether you're near Youree Drive or the Stoner Hill area.
