Questions and Answers
Do you install privacy fences in Toledo, and what height options are available?
Yes, we install shadow box (privacy) fencing in 4-foot or 6-foot heights, as well as chain link fencing. We can also customize gates to match your fence style, whether you need a walk gate or a driveway gate.
How do you prevent fence posts from shifting in Toledo’s clay soil and freeze-thaw conditions?
Toledo’s freeze-thaw cycles and heavy clay soil can cause fence posts to heave or lean. To address this, we set posts in concrete below the frost line (about 36 inches deep) and use gravel at the base for drainage. This keeps posts stable year-round and helps prevent gates from sagging.
Can you repair automatic gates, and how long does a typical gate repair take?
Yes, we repair both automatic and manual gates. For automatic gates, we can fix openers, sensors, and track issues. The timeline depends on the problem, but many repairs are completed within a single visit. We provide free estimates before any work begins.
