Maryville Fence - Maryville's Professional Fencing Company

Maryville's heavy clay soil expands when wet and shrinks as it dries, which can loosen fence posts over time. This shifting is a primary cause of leaning or unstable fences, especially after heavy rain. Maryville Fence addresses this by setting posts deeper—often 24 to 30 inches—and using concrete footings to anchor them securely, preventing movement even during wet seasons.

Look for soft or discolored wood near the ground, peeling paint, or a musty smell around posts. Warped rails and gates that stick or sag are also common signs. For vinyl fences, check for cracks or buckling at the base. Maryville Fence offers free inspections to identify hidden moisture damage and recommend repairs before it worsens.

For Maryville's humidity and temperature swings, vinyl and pressure-treated cedar are top choices. Vinyl resists rot and won't warp, while cedar naturally withstands moisture. Maryville Fence installs both options, along with aluminum for low-maintenance needs, ensuring your fence stays straight and functional for years.
