Q&A
Why are my fence gate hinges sagging after just a few years in Wilmington, DE?
Wilmington’s frequent freeze-thaw cycles cause the ground to shift, especially in neighborhoods like Trolley Square or near Brandywine Park. That movement can pull fence posts out of plumb, causing gates to sag and hinges to bind. Curbside Appeal Landscaping can re-set posts on a stable concrete base, adjust the gate frame, and reinforce hinges to realign your gate and prevent future sagging.
What’s the best way to stop my wooden fence from rotting at the bottom in Wilmington’s climate?
Rot at the base of wood fences is common here because of damp soil and snow melt that sits against the boards. The first sign is soft, discolored wood near the ground. Curbside Appeal Landscaping addresses this by improving drainage with grading or French drains during installation, using pressure-treated or cedar lumber, and adding a gravel gap beneath the fence to keep wood dry. For existing fences, we can replace damaged sections and regrade the area.
My fence posts are leaning after the ground thawed. Can you fix them without replacing the entire fence?
Yes, leaning posts are a classic sign of frost heave in the Wilmington area—especially on properties near the Brandywine Creek or Rockford Park. Curbside Appeal Landscaping can stabilize existing posts by excavating around them, adding a wider concrete footing below the frost line (typically 30–36 inches in Delaware), and bracing the post back to plumb. Often we can straighten a leaning section without taking down the whole fence, saving you time and money.
