Residential Fencing Folcroft PA | Call J & P Fencing

The main cause is the heavy clay soil common in Folcroft, which expands when wet and contracts as it dries, especially during freeze-thaw cycles in winter. This movement can push posts out of alignment if they aren't set deep enough or with proper drainage.

A clear sign to call J & P Fencing is if multiple posts are loose, the fence leans more than a few inches, or the gate no longer latches. If the wood is rotted or metal is rusted through at the base, replacement sections may be needed. We'll inspect the footing and material condition to give you an honest recommendation.

J & P Fencing often re-hangs the gate on heavy-duty hinges and checks that the gate post is plumb and set in concrete. For wider gates, we can add a wheel kit to take the weight off the hinges. This fixes the sag without needing a full fence replacement.
