Experienced Fence Contractors in Thomasville, NC 27360 - All About Fencing

The main culprit is our heavy clay soil, which expands and contracts with moisture changes. Combined with heavy rains or storms common in Thomasville, this can loosen the ground around standard post holes, causing leaning. Our solution is to dig deeper holes and use concrete footings to anchor posts securely, preventing future shifting.

Look for signs like a noticeable lean, gaps between the fence and the ground, or posts that feel wobbly when pushed. In Thomasville, you might also see rust on metal posts or rot at the base of wooden ones due to our humid climate. If you spot these, call us for a free inspection—we’ll reinforce the structure before a storm causes major damage.

For our local climate, we recommend vinyl or aluminum fencing. Vinyl resists moisture, rot, and pests, while aluminum won’t rust. Both handle the freeze-thaw cycles and heavy rain we get near the Yadkin River. We also offer treated wood options with pressure-treated posts for a classic look that lasts longer in our soil.
