Frequently Asked Questions
What causes fence damage after an earthquake in Palo Alto?
Earthquakes cause ground movement that can shift fence posts, crack concrete footings, and warp wooden panels. The liquefaction-prone soil in some Palo Alto areas exacerbates this, leading to leaning or collapsed sections.
What are signs that my privacy fence needs repair after seismic activity?
Look for visible gaps between panels, misaligned gates that stick or won't latch, leaning posts, cracked wood, or a general lack of stability when pushed.
How does FTR Wood Fence solve earthquake-damaged fencing in Palo Alto?
We assess damage, replace broken panels, reset shifted posts with deeper footings or seismic braces, and install automatic gates with reinforced hinges. Our installations are designed to better absorb future ground motion.
