About Our Fence & Gate Service
Fences in Chicagoland take a beating. Freeze-thaw cycles heave posts out of alignment, summer storms snap pickets and topple panels, and years of moisture slowly rot the base of even pressure-treated wood posts. A fence that was straight and solid five years ago can develop a noticeable lean, a dragging gate, or gaps between boards that compromise both privacy and security. Left unaddressed, minor fence damage accelerates — a single leaning post shifts stress to its neighbors, and within a season or two, an entire section can fail.
Mount Prospect is known for strong community events calendar — and homeowners here hold their contractors to the same high standard.
