Q&A

What causes fence posts to lean in Nappanee's soil?

Our region's clay-heavy soil expands and contracts with moisture changes, especially during freeze-thaw cycles. This movement can loosen fence posts over time, causing them to lean. At J & A Fencing, we counteract this by setting posts below the frost line and using gravel for drainage, ensuring stability year-round.

How can I tell if my fence has hidden rot damage?

Look for soft, spongy wood, discoloration, or a musty smell near the base of posts. In Nappanee's humid summers, rot often starts where wood meets damp soil. Our experts perform a thorough inspection, probing with a screwdriver to check for decay. If caught early, we can replace only the damaged sections instead of the whole fence.

What's the best fence material for withstanding Nappanee's weather?

For our local climate, vinyl or aluminum fencing offers low maintenance and high durability against rain and snow. If you prefer wood, we recommend pressure-treated cedar with proper sealing. J & A Fencing also offers chain link options for properties needing wind resistance, like those near open farmlands.
