Burien fence repair Burien
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien yards face a mix of challenges: frequent winter rain, coastal winds, compacted clay-loam soils, and shaded corners that encourage moss and rot. Sloped lots toward Puget Sound or near Seahurst Park often have drainage lines that wash away gravel and expose footings, while sun-facing fences on south exposures dry and crack faster. Renters and landlords commonly report leaning panels, split posts, and gates that sag from repeated use or freeze-thaw cycles. Homeowners want safety, privacy, and a tidy look without ongoing maintenance or harsh chemicals. Sustainable repairs that address wet soils, improve drainage, and use rot-resistant materials extend fence life and reduce landfill waste. Our approach balances structural fixes with low-maintenance finishes so fences stay functional and presentable through Burien’s wet seasons and dryer summers.
Our Quality Service
We assess posts, footings, and panels, then recommend repairs that work with local soil and slope conditions. Work focuses on durable connections, improved drainage, and finishes that shed moisture to prevent recurring rot.
Sustainable practices only: no herbicides, prioritized material reuse, and green disposal or hauling options.
- Safety: secure panels and gates to protect pets and tenants.
- Curb appeal: straight lines, consistent stain or paint, clean finishes.
- Low maintenance: rot-resistant wood, stainless fasteners, and better drainage.
What’s Included
- Full inspection and written recommendation.
- Post repair or replacement and panel reinforcement.
- Board replacement, gate adjustment, and hardware tightening.
- Cleaning and optional staining or sealing.
Optional upgrades:
- Mulch + fabric for fence-line beds.
- Organic weed control and moss removal (no herbicides).
- Haul-away vs. green bin disposal.
Before & After / Expectations
After repairs, expect treated footings and straighter panels that resist leaning for years. Water new posts properly for the first 2–4 weeks, clear nearby gutters and downspouts to avoid constant splash-back, and keep ivy trimmed to slow regrowth. For moss-prone, shaded areas check annually and hand-remove regrowth to protect finishes.
