Trusted Residential Fencing in Chicago, IL 60629 - Gabriel Roffin Construction

Ice damage to metal fences typically results from moisture seeping into small cracks or joints, then freezing and expanding during Chicago’s cold winters. This can cause warping, rust, or broken welds. Gabriel Roffin Construction can assess the damage, replace affected sections, and apply protective coatings to prevent future issues. We also recommend proper drainage around fence posts to reduce ice buildup.

A leaning fence post often indicates soil erosion, frost heave, or rotting wood at the base, not necessarily a foundation problem. In Chicago, freeze-thaw cycles can shift posts over time. Gabriel Roffin Construction can inspect the post, reset it with concrete footings, and install bracing to stabilize it. If the leaning affects your home’s structure, we’ll recommend a specialist.
