My fence is leaning a bit and is there an easier way to straighten it?
I don’t want to take sections out and wondered about reinforcing the fence posts?

- Catherine Finchon Apr 2, 2018you can get steel post stakes at lowes, they come in several different styles that sink into the ground and attach to your fence posts. I used the ones that the side of your post fits into and sinks deep into the ground and you screw into th wood on top. My neighbor and I each put one on our side of the fence to secure a section of our fence that blew down in a wind storm.HelpfulReply
