Best Fence: Experienced Commercial Fencing Serving Racine, WI 53403

Rot at the base is often caused by moisture trapped against wood, especially after heavy snows or rain we get near Lake Michigan. Over time, ground contact leads to decay, weakening the posts. Best Fence can inspect the damage, replace rotted posts with pressure-treated or rot-resistant wood, or suggest a switch to low-maintenance vinyl if the whole fence is failing. We’ll make sure the repair matches your yard’s layout and Racine’s weather.

A dragging gate that won’t latch is often a sign that the hinge post has shifted in the soil or the gate frame has twisted. In Racine, freeze-thaw cycles can push posts out of alignment. Best Fence can re-set the post, replace rusted hardware, or rebuild the gate to swing true. We’ll also check for sagging and adjust the latch to give you smooth, secure closure.

Yes, leaning posts after high winds from Racine storms are a common issue. The cause is usually a loose or rotted base. Best Fence can pull the leaning section back to plumb, reset the posts in concrete for extra stability, and re-tension the chain-link fabric. If the posts are rusted through, we’ll recommend quick replacement to prevent more leaning. We’ll give you a free estimate before any work.
