Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my wooden fence in Wabash start to rot or warp after just a few years?
Wabash experiences a mix of humid summers and cold, wet winters, which can cause untreated wood to absorb moisture and eventually rot or warp. This is a common issue for local homeowners. Wabash Fencing can help by weatherproofing your existing fence with high-quality sealants or stain, or by installing new, pressure-treated wood that is more resistant to our local climate. We also recommend annual inspections to catch early signs of damage before they become costly repairs.
My automatic gate in Wabash is sticking and won't open or close properly. What could be the cause?
Sticking automatic gates are often caused by debris in the track, misaligned sensors, or wear on the motor and gears, especially after a harsh Wabash winter. If the gate is binding, it can also be due to a bent frame or loose hinges. Wabash Fencing provides automatic gate repair services where we thoroughly inspect the mechanism, clear any obstructions, and adjust or replace worn parts. We can also upgrade your system to a more durable model better suited for our area's weather.
How can I tell if my fence needs to be repaired or replaced entirely?
If you notice isolated issues like a few loose boards, a single leaning post, or a small area of rot, repair is usually the best option. However, if more than 30% of your fence is showing signs of rot, rust, or widespread damage, replacement is often more cost-effective in the long run. Wabash Fencing offers a free on-site assessment to evaluate your fence's condition. We’ll give you an honest recommendation based on the extent of the damage and your long-term needs, whether it's a simple repair or a full fence installation.
