A fence is only as good as its posts
Every leaning fence leans for the same reason — posts set in dirt, or a coffee can's worth of dry mix. The panels are almost never the problem.
We dig proper footings, set every post in concrete, and get each one plumb before a picket goes on. Gates get extra attention, because gates fail first: real hinge hardware, diagonal bracing, posts that don't move.
- Concrete-set posts below the frost line
- Gates braced against sag
- Wood privacy or ornamental aluminum
- Tear-out and haul-off of the old fence
Wood or aluminum
Pressure-treated pine is the workhorse — full privacy, strong value per foot, takes stain after a season.
Ornamental aluminum keeps your view and airflow, never rots, and reads more upscale from the street. It's what we recommend around pools and on front-facing runs.
What it costs
Wood privacy typically runs $28–$45 per linear foot; aluminum $45–$75.
Gates, grade changes and tear-out are priced separately — we'll break it out so you can see it.
- Terrain and grade changes add labor
- Gate count and width matter more than people expect
- Old fence removal adds haul-off
