FAQs

How do you prevent fence post erosion in Austin’s clay soil?

Austin’s expansive clay soil can cause fence posts to shift or rot over time. We set posts in concrete footings that extend below the frost line and use pressure-treated lumber or galvanized steel for longevity. For extra stability, we sometimes add gravel at the base to improve drainage. This approach minimizes movement and helps your fence stay straight for years.

Can you repair a deck that has warped boards or loose railings?

Yes. We handle deck repair for warped, cracked, or rotted boards, as well as loose railing and stair issues. We’ll assess the damage, replace individual boards if needed, and reinforce connections. If the deck is beyond repair, we offer full replacement with materials that match your home’s style and Austin’s climate.

What’s involved in installing an automatic gate for my driveway?

Automatic gate installation includes mounting the gate (swing or slide), running underground wiring to a control box, and setting up a motor, sensors, and remote access. We also integrate safety features like obstruction sensors. We’ll match the gate material to your existing fence—wood, metal, or vinyl—and ensure it operates smoothly on your property.
