Winter is Coming; Have You Scheduled Fence Repair?

Fences keep pets in, pests out, add curb appeal, and take quite a beating from the elements. From time to time, your fence can accrue some damage; maybe from a fallen branch, high winds, or even rot or rust. If your fence is damaged, it’s not doing its job to the best of its ability. If you haven’t already scheduled fence repair to fix damage to your fence, now is a good time.

Placeholder Imagefence-repair-winter-is-coming Winter is coming! Make sure your fence repair is done beforehand.

Remember, winter is coming to the north east, and of course Frederick MD. If your fence is already damaged, and repairs aren’t done before winter, you risk additional costly damage. Many people don’t realize this until it’s too late.

Continue reading to understand the threat of winter to an already damaged fence, and why you should schedule fence repair ASAP, while there’s still time!

Winter Can Be Brutal

And this year is expected to be cold and snowy for us. This is bad news for fences that aren’t fixed before the wintry weather hits.

Think about the weight of snow. As it piles up, it becomes heavy—we know this if not only because we see trees bending beneath its weight. All of that snow piled on an already damaged fence is going to take advantage of its structural weakness, which can easily and quickly cause more damage. Scheduling fence repair now will make your fence structurally sound again before it begins snowing.

If the sun stays behind clouds, and the temperature stays low, that heavy snow could be sitting for a long time. Plus, if you have trees whose branches hang over your fence, those branches could snap beneath the weight of the snow, and fall onto your fence, damaging it further.

Snow is also slow-melting. This means it’s going to sit on your fence for a while until it’s completely melted and dry. If you have a wood fence or iron fence that is either physically damaged or beginning to rot/rot, slow-melting snow is bad news. Water will sit in the physical damage and quickly begin rot or rust, or make current rot/rust issues worse.

Fence repair now, BEFORE bad weather hits, is one of the best things you can do to combat winter fence damage. Just remember, it’s not long before winter officially begins, so make sure you’re on top of it.

We could not be more pleased with the entire process and outcome of our experience with Albaugh & Sons. From the timely turnaround on coming out to give us an estimate, to the flexibility on adjusting our proposal, and to the quick and professional installation itself. I would highly recommend Albaugh & Sons to anyone in their area of serviceability.

So great to work with. Have had the pleasure of working with both sons who were knowledgeable and courteous. The entire process was easy from estimate to completion of my new deck. Both arrived on time, had my estimate for both deck and basement remodel in a couple of days. Danny, the project manager arrived on time and explained the plans, the work crew were amazing. Old deck demolished and beautiful new composite in its place in less than 2 days. Tiffany, the office manager is prompt in responding to all emails with courteous knowledgeable answers. They make you feel like you are their only customer. Look forward to working with them for my basement remodel. I 100% recommend this company.

I had a beautiful deck built almost 2 years ago. I called yesterday about a few items that have come apart such as the pvc outside corners on the rim/ band board etc. The company was very responsive and ready and eager to help. Because of this, they have made a customer for life! Not only will you get an amazing product, but it appears you get a lifetime of amazing customer service!! 100 out of 5 stars!

We needed a fence as fast as possible for 5 rescue dogs that we took on. Albaugh and Sons was able to provide a great quote and a speedy installation. My wife and I love the new fence. It has literally improved our day to day lives by being able to let the dogs run free in the back. The materials were perfect and high quality. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

I hired Albaugh and Sons to tear out our old deck and replace it with a new composite deck/ screened porch. The front office was a pleasure to deal with and kept my wife and I informed on everything. The crew did an amazing job every step of the way. I was especially impressed with their finish work. The attention to detail was impressive! What I also liked Albaugh and Sons is they had a project manager (Danny) who would occasionally pop over and answer questions and would also keep me updated on progress. I would highly recommend hiring Albaugh and Sons for any of your fence/ deck / home improvement needs.

We are very pleased with the work done by Albaugh and sons. We had them replace our side porch and they did excellent work and built it to our request. Also had them install a three tier rail fence around our property. It is excellent and looks great. We thank Danny and his deck crew and George and his fence crew for their excellent work. I recommend them for any projects you need done. Thank you very much!!
