Question Answers
What causes a fence to lean or sag in Jenison, MI?
The most common cause is the freeze-thaw cycle we experience in West Michigan. As the ground freezes and thaws, it can shift fence posts, especially if they weren't set deep enough or with proper concrete. Over time, this movement causes the posts to loosen, leading to leaning or sagging sections of your fence.
How do I know if my fence posts are rotting?
Look for visible signs like soft or crumbly wood near the ground, dark discoloration, or mushrooms growing at the base of the post. You can also gently probe the wood with a screwdriver; if it sinks in easily, the post is likely rotted. A leaning fence that wobbles when pushed is another strong indicator.
Can Decks By Vets And More repair a leaning fence without replacing the whole thing?
Yes, in many cases we can. We assess the damage first. If only a few posts are compromised, we can replace just those posts and re-anchor the fence. For severe leaning or widespread rot, a full fence replacement might be more cost-effective. We always explain your options and give you a straightforward recommendation.
