FAQs
What causes fence posts to become loose and unstable in Arlington?
The main cause is the expansive clay soil common in Arlington. When the ground gets wet, the clay swells, and when it dries out during our hot summers, it shrinks. This constant movement can loosen the dirt around fence posts, causing them to lean or sink over time.
How can I tell if my wood fence is warping from the heat in Arlington?
Look for boards that have started to bow, cup, or twist out of shape. Gaps may also appear between the pickets, and the fence might look wavy from the side. If you notice the wood feels brittle or has deep cracks, it's a sign the heat has damaged the structure.
What is the best solution for a fence that keeps leaning due to soil movement in Arlington?
The most effective long-term solution involves digging out the old post and setting a new one with a concrete collar that extends below the frost line or using a post anchor system that resists soil pressure. For extreme cases, we recommend installing a metal bracket at the base that allows the post to pivot slightly with the ground movement without losing stability.
