Reliable Fence Builders in Philadelphia, PA 19107 - Big fellas fencing

Leaning posts are often caused by ground heaving from freeze-thaw cycles or soil erosion around older foundations in areas like South Philly. Big fellas fencing assesses the root cause—whether it's shallow posts, rotted bases, or drainage issues—then re-sets posts with concrete footings or installs post anchors to prevent future movement.

Rot near the base often results from moisture wicking up from wet soil or splash-back during rain. Big fellas fencing can replace individual pickets and rails if the structural posts are solid. But if rot has reached the posts or the frame, a partial or full replacement with pressure-treated wood or vinyl may be more cost-effective long-term.

Gate sag is common in historic districts like Society Hill where sidewalks settle unevenly. Big fellas fencing installs heavy-duty hinges, corner braces, and adjustable tension rods to correct alignment. We also reset the gate post to a deeper depth so it stays plumb despite ground movement.
