Q&A
What causes my fence posts to lean after Chicago winters?
Freeze-thaw cycles cause soil to expand and contract, loosening the ground around posts. Over time, this shifts them out of alignment. Hopkins Contracting Co solves this by setting new posts in concrete below the frost line, ensuring stability through every season.
My gate hinge keeps breaking. What’s the sign of a bad installation?
A sagging gate that scrapes the ground or won’t latch properly is a clear sign the hinges are undersized or the posts aren't plumb. We replace hinges with heavy-duty, rust-resistant hardware meant for Chicago’s weather and re‑anchor the post if needed.
How can I fix a leaning fence without replacing the whole thing?
If the posts are rotted or loose, we can often replace just those posts and reattach the existing panels. For posts in good condition, we brace them with gravel and concrete. Hopkins Contracting Co assesses each fence to give you the most cost‑effective solution.
