FAQs
What causes wood fence cracking in Glenview, and how can Big R Fence help?
In Glenview, the main cause is the freeze-thaw cycle: moisture seeps into wood, freezes, expands, and then thaws, leading to cracks. Big R Fence addresses this by using properly treated wood and installing fences with adequate spacing to allow for expansion. We also recommend seasonal sealing to reduce moisture absorption, extending the life of your fence.
What are the signs that my gate is sagging, and what solution does Big R Fence offer?
Common signs include a gate that drags on the ground, gaps between the gate and post, or difficulty latching. Big R Fence solves this by reinforcing the gate frame with heavier-duty hardware, adjusting hinges, or replacing worn posts. We ensure the gate is level and operates smoothly, even after Glenview's wet winters.
Can Big R Fence repair a sagging gate without replacing the entire fence?
Yes, often we can. We assess the cause, such as loose hinges or a leaning post. Solutions include tightening hardware, adding a tension cable, or replacing the post with a concrete footer. This targeted repair saves you money and keeps your existing fence intact, only fixing what's needed.
