Question Answers
What causes fence posts to shift in Utica, and how can Skyler’s help?
Frost heave from freezing and thawing cycles in Utica’s winters causes the soil to expand and contract, shifting fence posts. Skyler’s can re-anchor or replace posts to restore stability and prevent future movement.
How can I tell if my gate latch is failing, and what do you do to fix it?
Signs include difficulty latching, a sagging gate, or rusted components. Our team realigns the gate, adjusts the hinges, and replaces worn latches to ensure smooth operation.
Does Skyler’s tree services help prevent fence damage from falling branches?
Yes, we trim overhanging branches and remove dead limbs that could fall on fences during storms, reducing the risk of damage to your fence and property.
