Expert Fencing Company in Dallas, TX 75204 - Advance Fencing

The main cause is our expansive clay soil, which swells when wet and shrinks during dry spells. This constant movement loosens the soil around the post, leading to leaning or wobbling. Our solution is to remove the unstable post, dig a wider hole, and set it in concrete that extends below the frost line. For extra stability, we sometimes use gravel at the base to improve drainage. This keeps your posts solid year-round, even through drought and heavy rain.

After a hailstorm, look for dents, cracks, or splintered wood on the fence panels and posts. On metal fences, you might see small dings or even holes. If the damage is cosmetic, we can sand and refinish wood or replace individual slats. For structural issues, such as broken rails or loosened posts, we recommend a full inspection to prevent further problems. We’ll assess the damage and provide a repair plan that fits your budget.

For our climate, a well-built wood fence with pressure-treated pine or cedar is a great choice, especially when posts are set in concrete. Vinyl fencing is also popular because it resists hail dents and won’t rot. For extra durability, consider a metal fence like aluminum or wrought iron, which can handle hail better than thin steel. We’ll help you pick the best material for your property based on your budget and the specific conditions in your neighborhood.
