Local Commercial Fencing in Philadelphia, PA 19145 - EO Construction

The main cause is shifting soil — often from freeze-thaw cycles or erosion after heavy rain. When the ground moves, concrete footings can tilt or crack. EO Construction uses trench digging and targeted excavation to expose the base, then either removes and replaces damaged concrete or re-pours footings with proper drainage. If the surrounding driveway or walkway is also settling, we’ll repour and level those slabs together for a long-lasting fix.

Yes. A bowing or leaning retaining wall often shifts soil sideways, putting pressure on fence posts. We assess whether the wall needs interior or exterior structural repair — sometimes a partial rebuild is enough. After the wall is stabilized, we can reset or replace the nearby fence posts and patch any damaged concrete. This keeps both your wall and fence standing firm for years.

Absolutely. Many Philadelphia homeowners combine these to save time and avoid tearing up new concrete later. We excavate the driveway area, pour a new slab, and during the same project install the fence posts (either in concrete footings or on a separate base). We’ll also build or repair any adjacent masonry walls, patios, or steps so everything lines up correctly on your property.
