Common Questions
What causes fencing in Saint Joseph to rot or lean, and how can Talbott Construction fix it?
The main cause is moisture from rain and snow combined with freeze-thaw cycles, which weaken wood and shift posts. Signs include leaning sections, loose boards, or visible rot. Our solution includes fence repair to replace damaged posts and boards, plus weatherproofing with stain or sealant to protect against future moisture.
My deck boards are splintering and warping. Is this a sign of a bigger problem?
Yes, splintering and warping often indicate moisture damage or age-related wear, which can lead to structural weakness if left unaddressed. We recommend a deck inspection and repair to replace compromised boards and reinforce the frame. For severe cases, deck replacement provides a fresh, safe outdoor space built to handle Saint Joseph's weather.
How do I know if my fence needs weatherproofing, and what does that service include?
If you see fading, cracking, or water beading on the wood, it's time for weatherproofing. Our process includes cleaning the fence, applying a high-quality stain or sealant, and checking for any repairs needed first. This extends the life of your fence and prevents rot common in our area.
