Newtown, CT Fence Installation & Repair

Rotting Wood

When a fungus eats a wooden fence, the wood begins to decompose. Unfortunately, wood rot is a common issue in fences. To combat this problem, the affected area of the fence must be chemically treated and patched. Then, the treated fence needs to be stained or painted. In severe cases of wood rot, it may be necessary to replace the entire board. Roots Landscaping is Newtown’s go-to fencing repair and replacement contractor. Fence poles are structurally necessary because they give the fence stability. Over time, fence poles naturally shift. Therefore, if fence poles are not replaced periodically, parts of the fence may deteriorate or fall, which can cause the fence to sustain significant damage. The most effective way to get the most life out of a fence is to replace and repair fence poles as needed.

Holes & Cracks

The repair process for holes and cracks varies according to the fence’s material. For example, the process is different for a wood fence as opposed to a vinyl fence. To stop damage from spreading and maintain the fence’s condition, cracks should be filled and holes should be patched.

Missing Boards & Collapsed Sections

Another kind of common fence repair is missing boards. The repair process for a missing board is determined by the fence’s height and type as well as the board’s length. The sooner a missing board is addressed, the more likely a costly fence collapse can be prevented. Property owners should contact Roots Landscaping now to discuss repair options for their fence.
