Q&A
What causes fence posts to rot quickly in Salem, OR, and how can you fix it?
Salem's wet winters and clay-heavy soil trap moisture against wood fence posts, leading to rapid rot at the ground line. This is a common sign: a fence that leans or wobbles, with soft, spongy wood near the base. Our solution involves replacing rotted posts with pressure-treated lumber or metal post anchors set in concrete, ensuring your fence stays sturdy through the rainy season.
My roof has dark streaks and missing shingles after a storm—is this a sign of serious damage?
Yes, those dark streaks are often algae growth from Salem's damp climate, and missing shingles mean your roof's protective layer is compromised. Left unchecked, water can seep into your attic, causing mold and structural rot. We inspect for hidden leaks, replace damaged shingles, and treat algae to restore your roof's integrity before the next big storm hits.
How can I tell if my fence needs repair or a full replacement in Salem?
A good rule of thumb: if less than 30% of your fence is damaged (e.g., a few rotted boards or loose hinges), repairs are cost-effective. But if multiple posts are rotting, the fence is leaning significantly, or the wood is brittle from years of moisture, a full replacement is wiser. We offer free estimates and will walk your property to give an honest recommendation tailored to your budget and Salem's weather.
