Q&A
What causes fence posts to lean or shift in Tulsa, and how can A Better Fence fix it?
Tulsa's clay-rich soil expands and contracts significantly with moisture changes, causing fence posts to heave and lean over time. A Better Fence addresses this by setting posts deeper (usually 24-36 inches) and using concrete footings designed for our local soil. If your fence is already leaning, they can often re-set the posts or install new, reinforced ones to restore stability.
My wooden gate is sagging and won't latch properly. Is this a common problem in the Tulsa area, and what's the solution?
Yes, sagging gates are very common here due to high winds and humidity. A Better Fence solves this by installing heavy-duty hinges and a diagonal cross-brace that transfers weight to the hinge side. They also check the gate's frame for warping and can replace individual boards if needed, ensuring a smooth, secure fit.
What type of fence material holds up best against Tulsa's freeze-thaw cycles and strong storms?
For our climate, A Better Fence often recommends vinyl or aluminum fencing, as they resist warping, rust, and rot better than wood. If you prefer wood, they suggest pressure-treated pine or cedar with proper sealants. For gates, they use galvanized hardware and rust-resistant fasteners to prevent corrosion from our humid summers and winter ice.
