Questions and Answers

How do you fix leaning fences in Long Beach’s sandy soil?

Leaning fences often result from loose posts in sandy soil or wind damage. We re-set the posts using deep concrete footings (at least 24 inches) and add gravel drainage to prevent shifting. For existing fences, we can brace the posts with metal plates or replace them with corrosion-resistant steel anchors. Our team also checks for post movement due to irrigation or root intrusion and addresses the root cause.

Can you install an automatic gate for my driveway in Long Beach?

Yes, we specialize in automatic gate installation, including swinging, sliding, and folding driveway gates. We use heavy-duty motors suited for coastal environments, with stainless steel components to resist rust. We’ll tailor the design to match your home’s style—whether modern or traditional—and integrate safety features like sensors and remote controls.

What type of metal fencing is best for Long Beach’s coastal weather?

Wrought iron is excellent for durability and aesthetics, but we recommend powder-coated or galvanized finishes to prevent rust from salt air. We also offer aluminum or stainless steel options for low maintenance. Our team weatherproofs all fences with marine-grade sealants and ensures proper drainage around posts to avoid corrosion.
