Common Questions

My fence gate is dragging on the ground after a heavy snow. What might have caused this, and can Hewitt's help?

This is a common issue in Benzonia. The weight of snow and the shifting of the ground from frost heave can misalign a gate's hinges or cause the bottom of the gate to sag. As part of our snow removal services, we often notice these problems early. We can adjust the hinges, tighten hardware, or shore up the post to get your gate swinging freely again, preventing further damage from continued use.

Why do my lawn mower blades seem to get dull so quickly during the spring, and is this related to my property's fences?

Yes, it can be. After a long winter, especially with the amount of snow we get, debris like fallen branches, stones, and gravel often get pushed against fence lines by snowplows. Hitting these hidden objects dulls your mower blades fast. Our spring lawn care includes a detailed cleanup along all fences and gates to remove this debris, protecting your equipment and ensuring a clean, safe mow.

My wooden fence panels are starting to lean. Could this be from the snow, and what's the solution?

Absolutely. The freeze-thaw cycle in Benzonia can loosen the concrete around fence posts, and the lateral pressure from piled snow can push panels out of alignment. The solution is to reinforce or reset the affected posts and straighten the panels. While we're performing snow removal on your property, we can identify these leaning sections early. We then recommend having them professionally reset to prevent a full collapse during the next wind or snow event.
