Myth vs. Fact 🦉
MYTH: "A fence is a fence, as long as the posts are in the ground, it'll hold up."
FACT: Post depth and footing are what actually determine whether your fence survives an Ontario winter. If posts aren't set below the frost line (locally, that means digging deep, not just "deep enough"), freeze-thaw cycles will heave them right out of the ground. That leaning, wobbly fence you see two years after installation? Nine times out of ten, it's a footing problem, not a materials problem.
We set every post to spec, no shortcuts, because we're the ones who get the call when it's done wrong the first time.
Got a fence that's already leaning or shifting?
Let's take a look before winter makes it worse.
