Common Questions
What causes fences to lean or sag in Raleigh?
The main cause is Raleigh's expansive clay soil, which swells when wet and shrinks during dry spells. This movement can loosen fence posts over time, especially if they weren't set deep enough. Heavy rain and freeze-thaw cycles also contribute. Old North Fencing addresses this by using concrete footings and proper drainage to keep posts stable.
How do I know if my fence needs repair or replacement?
Look for visible signs like leaning, rotting wood, rusted metal, or loose gates. If only a few posts or sections are damaged, repair may be sufficient. However, if multiple posts are shifting or the material is extensively worn, replacement is often more cost-effective. We offer free inspections to assess your fence's condition.
What fencing material is best for Raleigh's climate?
Vinyl and aluminum are excellent choices because they resist moisture, rust, and soil movement. Wood fences can work if treated and installed with deep-set posts to prevent rot. For gates, heavy-duty hinges and self-closing mechanisms help withstand wind and frequent use. We recommend materials based on your specific needs and property conditions.
