Zimmerman Fencing - Windsor's Top-Rated Fencing Company

Look for leaning posts, rotting wood at ground level, loose or missing boards, rusted gate hinges, and visible gaps under the fence. In Windsor’s humid climate, swelling wood and fading vinyl are also signs. If your fence sways in strong winds or gates sag, Zimmerman Fencing can inspect and reinforce it.

Kentucky’s high humidity and heavy rainfall, especially during spring and winter, speed up wood rot in improperly sealed fences. Ground contact accelerates decay, and poor drainage around fence posts retains moisture. Using pressure-treated wood with proper post anchors and regular sealing can prevent this. Zimmerman Fencing recommends vinyl or aluminum options for low-maintenance durability.

Leaning often results from loose soil or compromised posts. First, check for broken cross braces or rotted posts. Zimmerman Fencing may set new concrete footings, add bracing, or replace posts with galvanized steel or fiberglass alternatives. For open areas near Windsor City Park, they recommend deeper post holes and wind-rated fasteners.
