SDL Landscaping | Trusted Fence Installation in Greenfield, WI

The main cause is our freeze-thaw cycle. Water gets into the soil around fence posts, freezes, and expands, which can shift the posts over time. Wet soil also loosens the grip on the posts. Additionally, pressure from large tree roots or heavy branches leaning on the fence can push it out of alignment.

Look for visible leaning, loose or wobbly posts, rotting wood at the base, cracked rails, or gates that drag or won't close properly. If you see these signs, the structural integrity may be compromised. We recommend calling SDL Landscaping for an inspection to prevent a full collapse.

First, we assess the tree. If roots are pushing up a post, we may need to relocate the post or install a root barrier. For branches, we provide tree pruning or trimming to remove weight and prevent future damage. If the fence is beyond repair, we handle complete fence installation with proper post-setting techniques for Greenfield's soil conditions.
