Q&A
What causes a privacy fence to blow out during an Austin storm?
High winds from thunderstorms or straight-line winds are a main cause. Often, the fence posts weren't set deep enough or the concrete footing has deteriorated over time. In Austin, the combination of heavy rain softening the ground and strong gusts can easily topple fence sections. Another factor is poor spacing between pickets, which traps wind instead of letting it pass through. A sign to watch for is leaning posts or loose panels after a storm.
How do I know if nearby vegetation is damaging my fence in Austin?
Look for vines that wrap tightly around pickets or climb over the top rail, which can pull sections down over time. Tree roots can also buckle concrete footings or push fence posts out of alignment. If you see cracks in the wood, warped panels, or posts that feel loose when you push on them, roots may be the culprit. A&R Fencing Pro can inspect and suggest trimming or root barriers to prevent further damage.
A&R Fencing Pro offers what solution for a fence damaged by roots or blowouts?
We provide full repair services, including replacing warped posts with new, deeper-set concrete footings that resist root pressure. For blowouts, we reinforce the frame and install wind-resistant brackets. If the damage is severe, we can replace entire fence sections with materials like cedar or metal that better withstand Austin's conditions. We also offer custom gate installation to match your repaired fence, ensuring a seamless and secure enclosure.
