Common Questions

How do I fix warped fence boards or leaning posts on my Yelm property?

Warped boards and leaning posts are common in Yelm due to wet soil and seasonal temperature changes. We inspect the underlying cause, replace damaged boards with pressure-treated or cedar lumber, and reset posts with proper gravel drainage and concrete footings. For leaning posts, we often add bracing or replace the post entirely to ensure long-term stability.

Do you install automatic gates for residential properties?

Yes, we install automatic gates for driveways and walkways, including sliding and swing gates. We handle all wiring, sensor setup, and remote access integration. Our team can recommend the best opener system based on your gate size, frequency of use, and security needs.

What is the best way to weatherproof a fence in Yelm's climate?

Yelm's rainy winters and dry summers can cause wood to rot or crack. We recommend applying a water-repellent stain or sealant after installation, and reapplying every 2-3 years. We also advise using cedar or pressure-treated wood, and ensuring proper post drainage to prevent moisture buildup.
