Question Answers
How can metal fabrication help with wood fence warping caused by Fredericksburg's heat?
The intense Texas sun can quickly warp and crack wooden fences. At Straube's Machine Welding Shop, we fabricate custom metal fence frames and gates that resist heat distortion. By replacing rotting or warped wooden sections with powder-coated steel or aluminum, your fence stays straight and sturdy even during the hottest months. We also reinforce existing structures with metal posts and brackets to prevent future warping.
What types of metal fabrication services do you offer for homes and businesses?
We provide a wide range of custom metal fabrication, including ornamental gates, security fences, handrails, structural supports, and equipment repairs. Our 25 years of experience means we can handle both simple welding jobs and complex builds. We also order welding machines and supplies for customers who prefer to tackle their own projects.
How do you protect metal fences from damage caused by vegetation in the Hill Country?
Vegetation like vines, shrubs, and tree roots can push against fence posts and cause panels to bow or rust. We combat this by using galvanized or stainless steel materials that resist corrosion, and we design fences with proper clearance between posts and the ground. Our installations include root barriers and anti-climb features to keep plants from damaging the structure over time.
