Residential Fencing Pewamo MI | Call Mid-Michigan Trenching

Sagging gates are often a sign of inadequate post support. If the post concrete footing isn't deep enough or was set in loose soil, the post will shift over time. Mid-Michigan Trenching can excavate around your existing post, remove the unstable base, and pour a proper concrete footer to the correct frost depth for Pewamo's clay-heavy soil. This secures the post permanently, preventing future sagging and misalignment.

The best solution is to have a trench dug specifically for a protective conduit that will house your telecommunications cable. Mid-Michigan Trenching uses narrow trenching equipment that minimizes turf disturbance. We dig a clean, shallow trench along your fence line, lay Schedule 40 PVC conduit, and backfill it—leaving only a thin visible line. This keeps your yard looking great while providing a safe, durable pathway for your gate's electronics.

Absolutely. Storms often cause fence posts to lean or gates to break loose. The real solution isn't just patching the wood—it's making sure the post base is stable. Mid-Michigan Trenching will excavate the damaged post area, remove any broken concrete or rotting wood, and set a new post with a reinforced concrete collar. We can also trench for new underground wires if your fence has electric gate motors or lighting that were damaged. We work quickly to restore your property's security and appearance.
