Questions and Answers
What causes fence posts to become loose in Keene, TX?
In Keene, the primary cause is the region’s expansive clay soil, which swells when wet and shrinks during dry spells. This constant movement can shift fence posts, making them lean or wobble over time. R & D Construction addresses this by using proper post-setting techniques and, when needed, clearing nearby tree roots that can also destabilize the ground.
How can I tell if my fence hardware is rusting from local humidity?
Signs include orange or brown stains on hinges, latches, or screws, as well as difficulty opening or closing gates. Keene’s humid summers accelerate this corrosion, especially on older or untreated metal. R & D Construction recommends inspecting hardware annually and can replace rusted components with weather-resistant options during your fence repair.
Can tree care services help prevent fence damage in Keene?
Absolutely. Overhanging branches can scrape against fences, and falling limbs during storms may break panels or posts. R & D Construction’s tree care services include trimming and pruning to keep trees away from your fence line, reducing the risk of impact damage and helping maintain the stability of your fence in Keene’s variable weather.
