K&E Fencing - Worcester's Reliable Fencing Company

In Worcester, the main cause of leaning fence posts is frost heave. When the ground freezes and thaws repeatedly throughout the winter, moisture in the soil expands and contracts. This pushes untreated or shallow-set posts up and out of alignment. Our solution is to set posts below the frost line (at least 48 inches deep) and use concrete footings, which stabilize the fence against these freeze-thaw cycles.

Signs of snow and ice damage include visibly bowed or cracked panels, sagging gates that won’t latch, and loose or broken pickets. After a heavy snowfall, check your fence for leaning sections or gaps between boards where snow may have pushed them apart. If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to have a professional assess the structural integrity before more damage occurs.
