Frequently Asked Questions
What causes fence posts to lean in Park Forest?
Leaning fence posts are typically caused by soil erosion from heavy rain or snowmelt, freeze-thaw cycles that shift the ground, and improper initial installation with insufficient concrete or gravel. The clay-rich soil in Park Forest can also expand and contract, gradually loosening posts over time.
What are the signs that my fence needs realignment?
Look for visible tilting of posts or entire sections, gaps between the fence and ground, difficulty opening or closing gates, and sagging or uneven top rails. If you notice cracks in concrete around posts or the fence feels loose when pushed, it's time for repair.
How does Yard Boss fix leaning fence posts in Park Forest?
Yard Boss removes the affected post, digs out loose soil or old concrete, and sets the post with a concrete base and gravel drainage to prevent future shifting. For alignment issues, we brace the fence and adjust sections back to level. We use weather-resistant materials suited to local conditions.
