Neuberts Fencing & Property Maintenance - Knoxville's Local Fence Installation

Yes, that's likely the cause. Knoxville's heavy clay soil expands when wet and contracts as it dries, which can shift fence posts over time. Neuberts can inspect your posts and reset them using gravel and concrete footings designed to handle these local soil conditions, preventing further movement.

In our damp climate, ground contact accelerates rot, especially in shady yards. The best long-term fix is to replace affected sections with pressure-treated or cedar posts, or consider metal posts for a virtually rot-free option. Neuberts can recommend materials and install them so your fence stays solid through Knoxville's humid summers.

Often, yes. Sagging gates typically come from a heavy gate pulling on settling posts or worn hardware. Neuberts can re-brace the gate, install heavier hinges, and adjust the posts. If needed, we can pour a new concrete footing just for the gate post to handle the weight—saving you the cost of a full fence replacement.
