Fence Builders Cincinnati OH | Call S&D Landscaping

Yes. Sagging gates are one of the most common fence problems in Cincinnati due to seasonal ground movement and heavy gate weight. S&D Landscaping can often fix this by adjusting hinges, replacing worn hardware, or adding a tension cable. If the gate post has shifted, they may reset it with concrete. In most cases, a targeted repair solves the issue for a fraction of the cost of a new gate.

Overhanging limbs can rub against fence boards, scrape paint, and shed leaves or branches that stain wood. More importantly, during storms, heavy limbs can snap and break your fence. This is a sign the tree needs professional pruning. S&D Landscaping can trim the limb back to a safe point, reducing weight and clearance issues. They also offer tree risk assessments to check for dead wood or weak crotches before they cause damage.

Absolutely. Cincinnati’s clay-heavy soil expands when wet and shrinks when dry, which can loosen fence posts over time. If you notice washout or exposed post bases, it’s a sign that erosion is compromising stability. S&D Landscaping can backfill with compacted gravel, replace rotted posts, or install concrete footings for permanent support. They also address drainage issues near the post to prevent future erosion and keep your fence standing straight.
