Fence Installation in Rochester NY
Living between Lake Ontario and Irondequoit Bay means your fence works harder than most. Corner Post Fence LLC handles professional fence repair for homeowners in Sea Breeze, Summerville, Glen Edith, Rock Beach and Helendale, along with businesses near The Commons at Irondequoit and the Empire Boulevard retail strip. Typical jobs include wind-tilted posts, snapped rails, chewed or rotted pickets, cracked vinyl and gates that swing open on their own. We are based next door in Greece, which keeps the drive short across Monroe County. For a brand new fence, our fence installation and services in Irondequoit handle the full build.
Lake Ontario rarely freezes over, so cold air picks up moisture and drops lake-effect snow on the shoreline from November through January. Homes near Durand Eastman Park and the Sea Breeze lakeshore feel it first, with wind loads that local code rates at 90 to 115 miles per hour. Fences along Titus Avenue and Culver Road also catch road salt spray all winter, which rusts hinges and chain link. Below ground, clay loam soil heaves through 50 or more freeze-thaw cycles a year, so posts set above the 42 to 48 inch frost line lift and lean. Sandy pockets near the lake can let shallow posts wobble loose.
Irondequoit repair calls tend to land in one of these five groups.
Most fences can be brought back with the right parts and a solid footing.
When a winter storm or ice event rolls through between December and March, trees near Irondequoit Bay Park, Lucien Morin Park and Tryon Park can drop heavy limbs onto backyard fences. Wait until the wind dies down, then look for downed wires before you step outside. Snap a few photos for your records and insurance claim. Move broken panels off sidewalks and keep pets on a leash until the yard is closed in again. Homes in the 14617 and 14622 ZIP codes are an easy trip for our team.
