One of the best messages we could have received after the tornado that came through St. John.
We installed this fence earlier this year for a local St. John homeowner. After the storm, he sent us this:
“Jose, a tornado touched down a street over on Blaine and my fence is still standing. Every fence around me is either flat on the ground or buckled at the bottom by the posts, or has a section knocked down. I lost one panel and it came out in one piece.
Those steel posts are the difference. I could not be happier with the work you did, and anybody who asks me about a fence is getting your number.”
He also sent us these photos showing the damage to fences around his neighborhood.
His fence lost one panel, but the fence and steel post system remained standing.
We would never claim that any fence is tornado-proof, but seeing one of our installations hold up this well while so many surrounding fences were severely damaged makes us incredibly proud of the way we build.
If your fence was damaged by the storm, we're here to help.
Modern Fencing Company is based right here in St. John, and we're currently providing estimates for both storm-damage repairs and complete fence replacements throughout the area.
We can help with everything from replacing a few damaged posts or panels to completely rebuilding a fence that is beyond repair.
We're already working through a large number of local requests and will continue helping as many homeowners as we can.
