Q&A

How do you handle fence rot caused by Bellingham’s damp climate?

In Bellingham, constant moisture can quickly rot wood fences. I inspect for rot at posts and rails, remove compromised sections, and replace them with pressure-treated lumber or rot-resistant woods like cedar. For existing fences, I apply weatherproofing sealants and recommend annual maintenance to prevent future damage. I also reinforce loose rails and ensure proper drainage around posts to keep your fence standing strong through our wet seasons.

Can you repair a deck that has loose boards or minor damage?

Yes, I provide deck repair services that address loose boards, cracked planks, and minor structural issues. I’ll assess the damage, replace or secure boards, and check the underlying frame for stability. If the deck is beyond repair, I can also handle full deck replacement with new materials that match your home’s style. My goal is to make your deck safe and functional again.

Do you offer fence painting or staining for homes near Lake Whatcom?

Absolutely. For properties near Lake Whatcom and other Bellingham neighborhoods, I provide fence and gate painting or staining services. I use weather-resistant paints and stains to protect against local moisture and UV exposure. I also prep the surface properly—cleaning and sanding—to ensure long-lasting results that enhance your property’s curb appeal.
