Lexington Landscaping: Professional Commercial Fencing Serving West Columbia, SC 29170

A sagging gate is often a sign of heavy clay soil shifting with moisture, causing the fence post to lean. In West Columbia, the frequent rain can also rot the bottom of wooden posts over time. We can solve this by first assessing the post stability. If the post is leaning, we can reset it with concrete or replace it entirely. If it's just the gate hardware, we'll tighten or replace hinges and add a wheel or anti-sag kit. Our team ensures the gate swings freely and latches securely, restoring function and security to your property.

Yes, standing water near your fence can soften the soil around posts, leading to rot and leaning. It also stresses shrubs like azaleas and hollies, which can develop root rot. This is common in West Columbia's low-lying areas. The solution involves two steps: First, we can adjust your irrigation system to avoid overspray onto the fence and shrubs. Second, we can regrade the area or install a French drain to redirect water away. Our irrigation repair and landscape maintenance services are designed to prevent these issues, keeping your plants healthy and your fence upright.

Absolutely. Overgrown shrubs rubbing against a fence can trap moisture, causing the fence to rot faster, and can even push against the fence panels over time. Our shrub pruning and trimming service is precise. We carefully shape the shrubs to maintain their health and natural form while creating a 6-12 inch gap between the foliage and the fence. This allows air circulation and prevents damage. For shrubs that are too close, we can also transplant them to a better location. We take care of both your landscape and your fence in one visit.
