Expert Commercial Fencing in Milwaukee, WI 53222 - Gregs Fences

Frost heave is a common problem in Milwaukee due to clay-rich soils that expand when frozen. Gregs Fences solves this by digging post holes below the frost line (typically 48 inches) and using concrete collars with drainage gravel to prevent water pooling. This keeps your fence stable year-round, even in neighborhoods like Riverwest or near the lakefront.

In Milwaukee's humid summers and freezing winters, wooden gates often warp or loosen at the hinges due to moisture expansion and contraction. Gregs Fences reinforces gates with galvanized steel corner brackets, adjustable hinges, and T-hinges rated for heavy use. We also recommend cedar or redwood for better resistance to rot, especially in shady areas like under trees in Shorewood.

Yes. Snowplows frequently bend posts and tear chain-link fabric along Milwaukee streets and driveways. Gregs Fences can replace damaged sections, reset bent posts in concrete, and tighten the fabric to restore tension. We also offer heavy-duty terminal posts and tension bars for areas near curb lines, such as along Capitol Drive or Howell Avenue.
