Professional Privacy Fence Installation in Garner, NC 27529 - Whitehead & Co

Garner’s humid subtropical climate, combined with heavy clay soils that retain moisture, accelerates wood rot. Common signs include leaning posts, soft wood near the ground, and mold growth. Whitehead & Co addresses this by using pressure-treated lumber with ground-contact rating and proper gravel drainage during installation.

Look for loose railings, cracked or splintered boards, and nails popping up. If less than 30% of the deck is damaged, repair may suffice. However, if the ledger board or posts are compromised, replacement is safer. Whitehead & Co offers free inspections in Garner to assess your deck’s condition.

After a storm, check for broken rails, torn mesh, or shifted posts. Temporary bracing can prevent further collapse. Whitehead & Co provides permanent repairs using wind-resistant designs, such as reinforced corners and galvanized hardware, ensuring your fence withstands future storms.
