Questions and Answers
How do you fix a fence gate that won't latch properly in La Vernia?
A broken gate latch is a common issue here, often caused by sun-warped wood or rusted hardware. We first inspect the gate frame and hinges to make sure it's hanging level. Then we replace the latch with a heavy-duty, weather-resistant model designed for the South Texas heat and humidity. If the gate has sagged, we can adjust the hinges or add a tension cable to restore a snug, secure fit.
Can you help with a full property cleanout and junk removal?
Yes, we handle property cleanouts and junk pickup for homes and small businesses in La Vernia. This includes removing old furniture, appliances, yard debris, and construction leftovers. We haul everything away and dispose of it properly, leaving the area clean. We also offer discounts for seniors and military.
What kind of fence staining do you recommend for sun-faded wood fences?
For La Vernia's intense sun, we use a high-quality, UV-resistant semi-transparent or solid stain that penetrates the wood and protects it from fading. We start by cleaning the fence and letting it dry, then apply the stain with a brush or sprayer for even coverage. This restores the color and adds years of life to your fence.
