Crossfire Excavation | Experienced Fencing Company in Humansville, MO

Sinking or leaning fence posts are often a sign of soil erosion, poor initial compaction, or rotting wood at the base. Crossfire Excavation can dig out the old posts, remove debris, and re-excavate the holes to the proper depth. We then backfill with compacted gravel and fresh dirt to ensure a stable foundation. Our trench digging service also allows us to install drainage solutions around the fence line to prevent future shifting.

As trees grow, their roots spread and can lift or crack fence posts, shift panels, and create tripping hazards. This is common with older oaks and maples near property boundaries. Crossfire Excavation offers tree care services that include careful root pruning and stump grinding. We can excavate around the affected area, remove problematic roots, and then re-level or replace the fence section without harming the tree if possible.

Our trench digging service is perfect for installing a solid fence foundation. We use compact equipment to dig a narrow trench along your fence line to the required depth (usually 12-24 inches). This trench is then filled with gravel and sand to provide a stable base and improve drainage, preventing posts from rotting or shifting later. In Humansville, we often work near the city park area, where soil conditions can be variable, so we adapt the depth and fill material accordingly.
