Question Answers
Why do wood fences warp so much in Lewisville, and what's the best solution?
The intense summer heat and humidity in Lewisville cause wood to expand and contract rapidly, leading to warping, cracking, and splitting over time. The best solution is to use pressure-treated or kiln-dried wood and ensure proper installation with adequate spacing for expansion. We can also recommend and install composite or vinyl fencing which is much more resistant to heat-related warping.
How do I know if vegetation is damaging my fence, and what can be done about it?
Signs of vegetation damage include vines growing between pickets, roots pushing against posts, and creeping plants trapping moisture against the wood, which causes rot. We can trim back overgrowth, remove root systems that are displacing posts, and install a gravel or barrier at the base of the fence to prevent regrowth. For ongoing issues, we recommend metal or vinyl posts that are resistant to root damage.
Can The Fence Crew replace just the warped pickets on my fence, or do I need a full replacement?
Often, yes. We can selectively replace individual warped or rotted pickets and rails without replacing the entire fence, as long as the posts and main structure are still sound. This is a cost-effective solution for many homeowners in Lewisville. However, if the damage is widespread or the wood is old and dried out, a full replacement may be more economical in the long run. We'll give you an honest assessment.
