Sharks Lawn Services - Oakland's Trusted Residential Fencing

The primary cause is Oakland’s clay-heavy soil, which expands and contracts with moisture. Over time, this movement loosens the ground around fence posts, causing them to lean or shift. Poor drainage and rot at the base can also weaken the posts, especially after heavy rains.

Signs include leaning sections, loose or broken boards, rotting wood near the ground, and difficulty opening gates. If less than 25% of the fence is affected, repair may suffice. For widespread rot or structural instability, replacement is more cost-effective and long-lasting.
