Wood and Vinyl Fencing Clearwater FL | Call Smith Fence

We assess the post condition and soil type. For posts that have shifted due to saturated ground, we often reset them using concrete footings below the frost line (though rare in Florida) and ensure proper drainage. In some cases, we replace posts with galvanized steel or treated wood set in a wider base. We also recommend periodic inspections and can add bracing for high-wind areas near Clearwater Beach.

We recommend a high-quality exterior stain with UV blockers and water repellents. Our process includes thorough cleaning, sanding, and applying a sealant that withstands salt air and intense sun. For existing stained fences showing wear, we offer re-staining and weatherproofing services every 2-3 years to maintain appearance and prevent rot.
