The problem
Where the job started
The fence leaned along its whole length and the lower boards had broken away in places. The posts had failed, while most of the panels were still sound.

- Reset or replace failing posts
- Straighten the line and re-hang panels
- Replace broken boards
How we solved it
The hard parts of this job
Most leaning fences fail at the posts. Fixing the posts first lets sound panels be reused, which keeps the cost down.
01Posts first, panels after
The line leaned along its whole length while most of the panels were still whole. The work started at the posts: failing posts were reset or replaced, and the panels went back on them plumb.
02Broken boards at the bottom
Along the bottom of the fence, boards had broken away and a piece of lattice lay on the ground. Those boards were replaced, and the repaired sections carry the lattice top again.
