Questions and Answers
What causes fencing to fail so quickly in North Providence?
The main cause is our freeze-thaw cycle. In winter, water in the soil freezes and expands, pushing fence posts upward. When it thaws, the posts settle unevenly. This repeated movement loosens the posts, causing leaning and cracking. High humidity also accelerates wood rot and rust on hardware.
What are the early signs that my fence needs repair or replacement?
Look for posts that wobble or lean, especially after a thaw. Gaps between pickets, rotting wood at ground level, and gates that drag or won't latch are clear signs. In North Providence, moisture damage often shows as dark stains or soft spots near the base of posts.
How does Fence Goals make sure a new fence lasts in this climate?
We set posts in concrete below the frost line (about 48 inches) to prevent heaving. We use pressure-treated or cedar wood, stainless steel screws, and galvanized brackets. For extra stability, we add gravel at the base of post holes for drainage. This approach is proven to work in North Providence's soil and weather.
