Experienced Wood and Vinyl Fencing in Edmond, OK 73034 - Built Rite Fence

The main cause is our clay-rich soil, which expands when wet and contracts during dry spells. This shifting loosens the soil around fence posts. Built Rite Fence solves this by digging deep holes and using concrete footings that extend below the frost line. For existing leaning posts, we can re-set them with proper bracing and concrete to hold them steady through seasonal changes.

Look for loose or popped nails, cracked or splintered boards, sagging gates, and panels that have shifted out of alignment. Also check for posts that wiggle or have visible gaps at the base. If you notice any of these after high winds or heavy rain, give us a call. We’ll do a free inspection and recommend whether a simple repair or a panel replacement is needed.

We use heavy-duty gate hardware, including adjustable hinges and a wheel kit for wide gates. Posts for gates are set deeper and with more concrete than standard line posts. This extra support prevents sagging even with frequent use and freeze-thaw cycles. We also tension the gate correctly during installation so it stays level and swings smoothly.
