Desert Moon Masonry - Phoenix's Reliable Residential Fencing

Gate misalignment is usually caused by the shifting of expansive clay soils common in Phoenix, especially after monsoon rains or drought. A stable concrete terrace or patio installation provides a solid, non-moving foundation that resists ground movement. Desert Moon Masonry can pour reinforced concrete footings and integrate gate posts into the new slab, keeping your gate aligned year-round.

Look for vertical or spiral cracks near the base of wood or metal fence posts, or posts that lean away from level. In Phoenix, intense UV radiation and dry heat make materials brittle over time. Replacing damaged posts with concrete-encased posts inside a newly constructed porch or terrace area provides superior strength and full protection from sun and moisture shifts.

Absolutely. When installing a new patio, porch, or terrace, we can combine the work with fence post repairs or replacement. We pour the concrete base, set new posts with proper drainage and reinforcement, and ensure the gate swings freely on a level surface. It’s a smart single-project solution that addresses both your outdoor living and fencing needs.
