About the Local Business
Highmark Fencing provides expert fence and gate services to homeowners across Austin, Texas. Local soil movement—common in areas like the Hill Country and neighborhoods near Barton Creek—often causes fence posts to lean or become unstable. Highmark Fencing addresses this by using deep-set posts with concrete footings designed for Austin's expansive clay soils. They also replace rusting metal hardware with weather-resistant alternatives, ensuring gates and fences remain functional and secure. Whether you're in South Austin near Lady Bird Lake or in the Mueller development, Highmark Fencing offers tailored repairs and installations that withstand local conditions, saving homeowners from recurring problems.
Common Questions
What causes my fence posts to become loose or lean in Austin?
The main culprit is soil movement. Austin has expansive clay soil that swells when wet and shrinks during dry spells—especially common near the Hill Country and along Barton Creek. This shifting can loosen the dirt around fence posts, causing them to lean or wobble over time.
How can you fix rusting gate hardware on my fence?
We start by removing all corroded hinges, latches, or screws. Then we replace them with stainless steel or galvanized hardware that resists moisture and humidity. We also check the alignment of your gate to prevent binding, which can wear out hardware quickly in Austin's climate.
Why do my fence posts keep rotting at ground level, and what's the solution?
Wood posts in contact with damp soil are prone to rot, especially during Austin's rainy spring and fall seasons. Our solution is to set posts in concrete and use pressure-treated lumber or metal brackets that lift the wood off the ground. This keeps moisture away and can extend the life of your fence by years.
