Questions and Answers

Why do my gate hinges freeze in winter, and how can Reale Fence fix this?

In Geneva's cold winters, moisture can collect in gate hardware and freeze, causing the gate to stick or become immovable. This is a common sign of inadequate weatherproofing or low-quality hardware. Reale Fence can install weather-resistant, stainless steel hinges and latches, apply protective coatings, and ensure proper drainage around the gate posts. We also offer weatherproofing services to seal metal components and prevent future freezing issues.

What causes fence posts to shift after the ground thaws, and how do you repair them?

Frost heave occurs when water in the soil freezes and expands, pushing fence posts upward or sideways. After thawing, posts may lean or become loose. This is a frequent issue in Geneva due to freeze-thaw cycles. Reale Fence repairs this by resetting the posts with concrete footings that extend below the frost line (typically 48 inches in our area), then reinforcing the surrounding soil. We also inspect adjacent sections to ensure long-term stability.

Can you paint or stain my fence to protect it from harsh Finger Lakes weather?

Yes, Reale Fence offers professional painting and staining services to shield your fence from moisture, UV rays, and temperature swings common in the Finger Lakes region. We first clean and prepare the surface, then apply high-quality, weather-resistant finishes. This not only extends the life of your fence but also prevents common issues like wood rot and metal corrosion. We recommend staining every 2–3 years for optimal protection.
