Q&A

What causes soil erosion around fence posts in San Mateo?

Soil erosion around fence posts is often caused by heavy rainfall, poor drainage, and loose soil typical of San Mateo's clay-rich ground. The water washes away soil, leaving posts unstable. We solve this by regrading the area, installing proper drainage, and using concrete or gravel footings to secure posts.

How can I fix a stuck gate lock that won't open?

A stuck gate lock is usually due to rust, dirt buildup, or misalignment from settling. We can repair it by cleaning and lubricating the mechanism, adjusting the strike plate, or replacing the lock if damaged. For automatic gates, we also check wiring and sensors. Regular maintenance prevents future failures.

What are signs that my fence posts are eroding and need repair?

Look for leaning or shifting fence sections, cracks in the soil around posts, exposed roots, or wood rot at the base. If you notice these, call us for an inspection. We can reinforce posts with concrete, replace damaged ones, and improve drainage to stop further erosion.
