While it’s true that we, Big Jerry’s Fencing, offer the most robust, durable, and top-quality aluminum fences with excellent longevity and beautiful designs that require minimal to no upkeep, there will come a time when you might have to replace them. So, with that in mind, we’re here today to guide you in searching for signs that you need to be on the lookout for. If they’re present, then replacement is the better option rather than repairing.
Now, let’s take a look at the surefire signs that are indicative of replacement:
Rusting, Discoloration, And Corrosion
The obvious culprits that’ll make it easier to decide if your aluminum fence needs replacement are signs of rust build-up and discoloration. It’s the same with corrosion, which relates specifically to aluminum fences. You’ll notice flaking, color falling off, and squeaking sounds that will be unpleasant to the ears. Normally, the aluminum fences by Big Jerry’s Fencing will have undergone a rust-proofing galvanization process that will prevent rust, discoloration, or corrosion, but if it’s still happening, that means the integrity of the fence is compromised, and you need to replace it.
Gaps, Missing Sections, And Holes
Another trio of signs: if you see them in your aluminum fence, then you most definitely need to get it replaced ASAP. The three signs in question are gaps in your fence when there previously weren’t any, or if entire sections are missing, either broken or fallen off due to high-impact winds or strong hailstorms, and lastly if you see holes and cracks that are clear designs of structural damage beyond repair. If any single one of these signs is present, replacement is not only recommended, it is a necessity, or else you risk severe injury to yourself and your loved ones.
Lack of Fence Post Support
If your aluminum fence posts do not have upright support or lean when you touch them or give a slight nudge to them, it is not to be taken lightly. This means your aluminum fence is greatly weakened and is a safety hazard waiting to happen, and you should get it replaced immediately.
