GI Sealcoating and Property Services | Best Fencing Company in Worcester, MA

Worcester's freeze-thaw cycles and damp spring seasons trap moisture against wood posts. When concrete is poured around the post without gravel drainage, water pools at the base, accelerating rot. GI Sealcoating addresses this by using treated wood or metal posts with proper gravel backfill and concrete collars that shed water away.

Signs include sagging, dragging on the ground, gaps between the gate and latch, or rusted hinges. If your gate sticks or makes a grinding noise, the frame may be warped or the foundation settling. GI Sealcoating recommends an annual inspection; catching issues early saves you from a full replacement.

A leaning fence often means the corner posts have shifted in wet soil. The durable fix is to remove the old posts, dig deeper holes (below frost line), and set new pressure-treated or steel posts in concrete. GI Sealcoating also reinforces adjacent panels to prevent future movement, giving you a straight, storm-resistant fence.
