Hope you guys/girls can help me..installed cedar fence with 6x6 corner posts
in concrete roughly 30" deep in Dallas, TX. Height is rouhly 7'.

It has developed a lean to one side, pulling away from the fence line,and is
quite noticeable, perhaps15 degrees or so. The side it is leaning too has
about 6" of ground betwenn the concrete and the curb.

This post has no stress on it other than about a 6' length of bamboo
fencing, which weights hardly anything. Rest of fence is fine.

How do I get this post upright without breaking it all apart and starting
over? Really would hate that.

!/3 of the post is buried and it is still leaning? Did the concrete footing
break apart?

If so, you might try propping post up until it is vertical then filling the
gap with really hot concrete (quick set). You can buy it at Home Depot for
about $5/bag. I think they call it Quickcrete. You pour the concrete into
the hole then add water, it sets in minutes. This will fill the void that
was left when you put the post vertical. You can put stress on it in four
hours.
