AB Landscaping: Professional Fence Contractors Serving Tulsa, OK 74129

Tulsa's clay-rich soil expands when wet and contracts during dry spells. This movement can cause fence posts to heave or lean over time. At AB Landscaping, we often find that posts not set deep enough—below the frost line and into stable soil—are the main culprit. We can reset your posts using gravel and concrete to allow for drainage and reduce movement, combined with regular lawn care to manage water runoff around the fence line.

Freeze-thaw cycles in Tulsa can shift gate posts, and moisture can swell the wood, throwing the latch out of alignment. Our team will first check if the gate has sagged due to loose hinges or a shifted post. Often, a simple adjustment of the hinge screws or a slight trim of the gate edge solves the issue. If the post is leaning, we'll fix the foundation first. Then, we ensure the latch is correctly aligned and lubricated to prevent future sticking.

Overgrown grass and weeds can trap moisture against wooden fence posts, accelerating rot. They can also hide early signs of damage like loose nails or cracked boards. Our lawn service includes trimming around fence lines and gates to improve airflow and visibility. By keeping the ground clear, we also reduce the risk of sprinklers soaking the base of wooden posts. It's a simple, proactive step that extends the life of your fence and saves you from bigger repairs later.
