Privacy Fence Installation Marion OH | Call Tackett Fence

The primary cause is prolonged exposure to moisture combined with freeze-thaw cycles common in Ohio winters. In areas with heavy clay soil or poor drainage, water collects around the base of posts. Over time, this leads to wood decay. Tackett Fence addresses this by using pressure-treated lumber and proper post-setting techniques, including gravel drainage, to extend the life of your fence.

Look for sagging that prevents the gate from latching, a gate that drags on the ground, or visible rust on hinges and hardware. In Marion’s humid summers and snowy winters, these issues worsen quickly. Tackett Fence can assess if a simple hardware adjustment and new post reset will fix it, or if it's more cost-effective to replace the gate entirely.

Storm damage often results in broken panels, leaning sections, or twisted gates. Tackett Fence provides quick, local service to remove damaged sections, realign posts, and install matching panels. They focus on restoring your fence to a stable, secure condition, so you don't have to worry about reduced privacy or safety in your yard.
