Local Fence Installation in Oakhurst, CA 93644 - Earthworks
Oakhurst, CA 93644
Company Background
Earthworks is an excavation, demolition, and fencing contractor based in Oakhurst, CA. Our team handles projects large and small, from total structure demolition to trench digging, interior demolition, and partial structure removal. We also specialize in exterior surface and wall demolition. For Oakhurst residents, we understand the local climate—intense summer heat that can warp wood fences and cause fence posts to shift in the Sierra Nevada foothill soil. To address this, we use pressure-treated posts set in concrete with proper drainage, and we recommend materials like cedar or composite that resist warping. Our work covers the Oakhurst area including neighborhoods near the Oakhurst Community Center, Bass Lake, and the Yosemite South Entrance. Whether you need grading, road construction, erosion control, or a new fence that stays straight through the seasons, we provide reliable, local expertise. Contact us to discuss your construction needs.
Questions and Answers
How do you prevent wood fence warping in Oakhurst's hot summers?
We select kiln-dried, heat-treated wood species like cedar or redwood that naturally resist warping. Posts are set with concrete footings below the frost line and given proper drainage to prevent moisture-related movement. We also leave expansion gaps between boards and use stainless steel fasteners to avoid corrosion. This approach helps fences stay straight even during Oakhurst's high temperatures.
What does a total structure demolition include?
Total structure demolition involves safely dismantling an entire building, including foundations, walls, and roofing. We coordinate utility disconnection, obtain necessary permits, and handle debris removal. Our team uses heavy equipment like excavators and loaders to efficiently clear the site, leaving it graded and ready for new construction.
Can you handle trench digging for utility lines near existing fences?
Yes. We use precise trenching equipment to excavate narrow, deep trenches for water, gas, or electrical lines. When working near fences, we take extra care to avoid disturbing post footings. If a fence is already shifting, we can reinforce or replace posts as part of the trenching project to ensure long-term stability.
