Fence Mendoza’s - Modesto's Top-Rated Residential Fencing

The main cause is the dry, expansive soil common in Modesto. As the ground dries out and shifts, it can loosen the concrete or dirt around your fence posts, leading to wobbling or leaning. Over time, this instability can worsen if not addressed, especially during hot summers.

Common signs include a gate that drags on the ground, squeaks loudly when opened, or won’t latch properly. You might also notice rusted hinges or a sagging gate that’s hard to close. If your gate feels off-balance or sticks, it’s time for a hardware check.

We start by assessing the post and soil condition. In many cases, we remove the old concrete and reset the post with fresh concrete that’s better suited for local soil. For severe shifts, we might install a longer post or use a gravel base to improve drainage and stability. Our goal is a long-lasting fix that withstands Modesto’s weather.
