Wood fence repair

With the beautiful Spring weather, the fence installation season is in full swing at Sterling Fence Inc. A large part of our business is repairing wood fences.

In the 1960's in the St. Paul/Minneapolis area very few wood fences were installed, Almost all the fences installed were galvanized chain link. Beginning in the late 1970's customers began to ask for wood fence to be installed around their homes. Lumber was sold through lumber yards, fences being built with Redwood or Western Red Cedar,  rather than through fence wholesalers. In the 1980's the trend changed with large West Coast lumber mills reducing the use of Redwood and  supplying Western Red Cedar.

When Sterling Fence Inc opened in 1978, 25% of our business was installing Western Red Cedar privacy fences. By 1995, the wood installation was 50% of our business. Many customers wanted wood privacy fences for their yards.

Now, all those wood fences are reaching the end of their useful lives. However many fences are in perfectly good shape except for posts that are broken or rotted. The good news is that many of those fences can be repaired. Sterling Fence Inc does many wood repairs. We will dig out the out posts, replace then and pour new cement, thereby extending the useful life.

  2. What I really like about wooden fences is that they be fixed really easily. If any of the slats are broken or really old, all you have to do is take them out and put in a new slat. Growing up we had to replace so many parts of the fence. We had a lot of practice and experience from breaking them by playing in the yard. http://www.glassfencingandbalustradesact.com

  6. It is recommended that as soon as you put in your invisible electric dog fence you ought to test it out - animal testing, that is. Bring your animal slowly across the border together with his or her collar on. Yes, the animal will get zapped. Nonetheless, how else will he or she realize it is there? there's a beeping signal that becomes audible as a dog or other animal comes too on the brink of the fence they will not see. this is often a warning. The alarm will get louder and, upon the border , directly over the electrical fence wires, the animal will receive a jolt. Most dogs will hear the sound and act very timid, backing away and seeming uncertain, at first. Nonetheless, they're going to soon grow accustom to the alarm , skills to avoid the jolt, and be ready to enjoy his or her backyard (your backyard) in peace and security.
