Professional Residential Fencing in Kansas City, MO 66103 - 9th Wave Construction

This is very common in Kansas City. The clay-based soil around here expands and contracts with moisture, and freeze-thaw cycles can push fence posts loose over a few seasons. The telltale sign is posts that move when you push on them. 9th Wave Construction can often reset and re-concrete the existing posts instead of replacing the entire fence. We’ll dig down, pour a deep concrete footer below the frost line, and set the post plumb. For severely rotted posts, we replace only those sections, which saves you money compared to a full fence rebuild.

It’s usually a post issue. In Kansas City’s weather, the post supporting the gate hinge takes the most stress and is the first to loosen. That’s a classic sign the post’s footing has failed. 9th Wave can brace or replace just the hinge post with a new, deeper concrete foundation. We’ll also check the gate frame for twist or rot. Often, resetting the post and adjusting the hinges is all that’s needed to get your gate swinging and latching properly again without needing a new gate or fence.

It’s a smart idea to tackle the windows before the fence, especially here in Kansas City. Window installers will need clear access to the exterior of your home, and a new fence can block scaffolding or ladders. 9th Wave Construction can coordinate with your window crew to make sure the timing works. After the windows are in and the siding is buttoned up, we’ll install your fence with no risk of damage. We’ll also take care to avoid underground utilities by calling 811 before digging—a must in the KC metro.
