Deadwood Acres & Hardscapes | Professional Fencing Company in Hudson Falls, NY

Frost heave is a frequent issue in this region, especially after freeze-thaw cycles. For new fence installations, we dig post holes below the frost line (typically 48 inches) and use compacted gravel base and drainage gravel around the posts to prevent water pooling. For existing shifting posts, we can excavate, re-level, and backfill with frost-resistant materials. For chain-link fencing damaged by ice, we inspect for bent rails or loose fabric and realign or replace sections as needed.

Our excavation covers land clearing, earthmoving, regrading, trench digging for utilities, and site preparation for new construction or hardscapes. We also handle water mitigation like retaining ponds and drainage corrections. We work with local soil conditions—sandy loam and clay mixes common near the Hudson River—to ensure proper compaction and drainage. Whether you need a flat pad for a shed or a swale to redirect runoff, we assess the site first.

Yes, we frequently combine walkway installation with retaining walls to create functional, tiered landscapes. For properties with slopes near Stone Schoolhouse Road or along County Route 18, we build retaining walls using natural stone or segmental blocks, then integrate walkways or patios at each level. We also coordinate landscape grading and irrigation construction or repair to keep the terraced areas stable and well-drained.
