Lowe Construction: Experienced Residential Fencing Serving Oklahoma City, OK 73112

Leaning posts usually point to poor base support. Many Oklahoma City homeowners set posts in shallow holes or loose soil that shifts with rain and freeze-thaw cycles. Our trench digging and excavation services excavate below the frost line and remove unstable dirt. We then backfill with compacted gravel and concrete to lock the post in place. This keeps your fence straight through Oklahoma summers and winters.

Yes. Cracks often appear when the ground underneath wasn't properly prepared. If the soil wasn't excavated deep enough or compacted well, it settles unevenly. We can assess the area, remove the damaged slab, excavate the soil to a uniform depth, and re-compact it before your concrete is poured. This prevents future shifting and gives you a level surface that lasts.

Trench digging is the process of cutting a narrow, deep channel in the soil. If rainwater pools along your fence line, it can soften the ground and make posts unstable. We dig a trench to install drainage pipe or French drain systems that redirect water away. This keeps the soil around your fence dry and firm, so your posts stay solid and your concrete edges don't wash out.
