Question Answers
What causes a fence to lean in Schenectady, and how can Empire Fencing fix it?
Leaning fences in Schenectady are often caused by frost heave in the winter and soft soil from spring rains. The ground shifts, and over time, fence posts lose their grip. Empire Fencing can repair the leaning by resetting the posts with concrete or gravel, or replacing rotted posts. We also offer weatherproofing to protect the wood from future moisture damage.
My fence is discolored and faded. Is this a sign of a bigger problem?
Fence discoloration is usually a sign that the wood is losing its protective sealant due to sun exposure and moisture. While it may not be a structural issue yet, it can lead to cracking, warping, and rot if left untreated. Empire Fencing offers fence staining and painting services to restore color and add a weatherproof layer, preventing long-term damage.
How can Empire Fencing help prevent my fence from leaning or fading in the future?
Prevention starts with proper installation and regular maintenance. Empire Fencing can install new fences with deep-set posts to resist frost heave. We also provide weatherproofing treatments and periodic staining to block UV rays and moisture. For existing fences, we can reinforce leaning sections and apply protective coatings to keep the wood stable and vibrant for years.
