Western Contracting Services | Local Fence Contractors in Gulfport, MS

Gulfport's humid subtropical climate and salt-laden air accelerate wood decay and soil erosion around fence posts. Rot and leaning typically begin where moisture collects at the post base. Western Contracting Services addresses this by replacing rotted sections, setting new posts in concrete with proper drainage, and applying a weatherproofing sealant. For existing fences, we offer fence painting and staining that includes a protective barrier against moisture and UV damage.

Sticking automatic gates are often caused by misaligned tracks from shifting sandy soil, corrosion on the hinges from salt air, or a failing motor due to moisture intrusion. Western Contracting Services can diagnose the issue by inspecting the gate alignment, checking electrical connections, and testing the opener mechanism. We repair or replace worn rollers and weather-seal the motor housing. If the track is bent or the gate frame is warped, we can realign or rebuild the gate to prevent future sticking.

Wind-driven rain common during Gulfport storms can penetrate gaps in old or damaged siding, leading to rot and mold behind the walls. Western Contracting Services recommends a full inspection after heavy storms. We replace cracked or warped siding panels with impact-resistant materials like fiber cement or vinyl. We also seal all joints and flash openings properly to create a watertight barrier. For new construction or additions, we install siding rated for high-wind zones, giving your home better protection against Gulf Coast weather.
