Your Sacramento Fence Has a Few More Years;
The Retaining Wall Needs To Be Repaired.
There are times when the repair that I was called to look at leads to something else. I looked at a wood fence today that the Sacramento management company was considering repairing soon. The fence itself has signs of weathering and a few loose fence boards but not too bad. The fence was not in perfect condition but it could probably hold up a few more years.
There were portions of the fence that had been replaced and repaired a few years ago, but it was not a new fence. The problem that I saw was with the lower retaining wall. This section of the fence had not been touched since the original construction, probably 20 – 25 years ago. The wood on the lower portion has rotted and the soil eroded; it needs to be repaired.
I believe there is a way to repair the retaining wall portion of the wall and in a few years the fence can be replaced and the retaining wall kept intact. The new retaining wall will be replaced using pressure treated lumber to last a very long time.
