Company Background
Margon Concrete Services, based in Austin, TX, specializes in fence and gate solutions that address common local issues like gate sagging and privacy fence blowouts.

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes a gate to sag over time?
Gate sagging is usually caused by loose or rotting posts, weakened hinges, or ground shifting from Austin's clay soils. When the concrete base around the post deteriorates, the post tilts, pulling the gate out of alignment. In older neighborhoods like Travis Heights, this is common due to frequent freeze-thaw cycles.
How do I know if my privacy fence is at risk of blowing over?
Signs include leaning sections, cracked concrete at post bases, and loose pickets. After heavy storms in areas like South Congress, fences often show gaps between the post and concrete. If your fence wobbles when pushed or has visible soil erosion around posts, it's time for reinforcement before the next wind event.
How can concrete services fix these fence issues permanently?
Margon Concrete Services replaces old post bases with deep-set concrete footings, often 18-24 inches deep to resist frost heave and wind uplift. For sagging gates, we realign the post, add concrete backfill, and install heavy-duty hinges. This solution is ideal for Austin's mixed soil conditions, ensuring long-term stability without the need for annual adjustments.
