Wood and Vinyl Fencing Oklahoma City OK | Call Other Side Fence

The main cause is our clay soil expanding and contracting with moisture changes, combined with strong winds. This loosens posts over time. We fix it by removing the old post, digging a deeper hole, using concrete with gravel for drainage, and setting the post with a reinforced bracket for extra stability. This keeps your fence upright even after heavy rain or wind.

Look for a gate that drags on the ground, sticks when opening, or has a gap at the top or bottom. This often happens after a storm or during dry spells when the soil shifts. If you notice these signs, call us. We can realign the gate, replace worn hinges, or adjust the post to swing freely again.

For our area, we recommend galvanized steel or heavy-gauge aluminum for gates, and pressure-treated pine with steel posts for wood fences. Vinyl can work if installed with reinforced rails. These materials resist rot, rust, and warping better than standard options, and we anchor them deeper to handle our shifting soil.
