Bernardo Services - Jonesboro's Expert Fencing Company

The main cause is often the gate's weight overwhelming its hinges or posts, especially after rain softens the soil around the post base. The post can shift or the hinges can weaken from the extra strain. Over time, this leads to the gate dragging. Bernardo Services assesses the hinge condition and post stability to provide a solution that keeps your gate swinging freely.

A leaning fence often shows one or more posts have shifted in the ground, particularly after a heavy rain softens the soil. Signs include a visible tilt, gaps between panels, or difficulty closing the gate. Bernardo Services can evaluate if the posts can be straightened and re-anchored with concrete or gravel, or if rot or breakage necessitates a post replacement. We provide a clear, honest assessment for your Jonesboro home.

The most effective solution is to properly reset the affected posts with a stable base. We remove the post, dig a deeper hole, and set it in concrete or crushed gravel for drainage, which is crucial in Jonesboro's clay soils. This prevents shifting from future rain. Bernardo Services also checks for any necessary hardware upgrades to ensure your fence stands strong for years.
