Balch Outdoor Services - Austin's Best Privacy Fence Installation

Privacy fence blowouts in Austin are often caused by high winds from storms or gusty weather, combined with aging wood, loose fasteners, or shallow post footings. Over time, soil erosion and moisture can weaken fence posts, making them more vulnerable to wind. Poor initial installation can also contribute. Balch Outdoor Services can assess the cause and recommend repairs or reinforcement to prevent future blowouts.

Signs of a misaligned gate include dragging on the ground, difficulty latching or locking, uneven gaps between the gate and posts, or visible sagging. You might also notice that the gate swings open or closed on its own. If you see any of these issues, it's best to have a professional inspect the hinges and posts. Balch Outdoor Services can realign the gate, adjust hardware, or replace worn parts to ensure smooth operation.

First, we inspect the entire fence section to assess damage and identify root causes like broken rails or loose posts. We then remove damaged boards and replace them with matching material. If posts are loose or rotted, we dig new footings and set them in concrete. Finally, we reattach all panels and reinforce connections with brackets or screws. For partial blowouts, we can often repair rather than replace, saving you money.
