Why is post repair different in Luxury San Diego?
Estate post repair is usually invisible — we sleeve failed wood posts with steel inserts or rebuild with matched lumber so the repair disappears into the fence line.

Why does the Luxury region matter for this service?
Estate post repair is usually invisible — we sleeve failed wood posts with steel inserts or rebuild with matched lumber so the repair disappears into the fence line.
How do you know if it's a post problem vs a panel problem?
Lean direction tells you. If the whole section leans together like a domino, it's the posts. If only some pickets are loose or falling, it's panel-level. Most leaning fences are 100% post-caused — the wood or concrete at grade has failed.
Steel post insert vs full replacement?
If the post above grade is still solid, a steel insert (like Simpson Strong-Tie Postmaster) sleeves into the remaining wood and bolts to a new concrete footing — cheaper, faster, and often stronger than a full replacement. If the whole post is rotted, full replacement is the right call.
