Commercial Fencing Stow OH | Call Site Technology

The main cause is the area’s clay-heavy, rocky soil combined with seasonal freeze-thaw cycles. When the ground freezes and expands (frost heave), shallow post holes can push posts out of alignment. Site Technology solves this by excavating deeper holes below the frost line and using compacted gravel for drainage, preventing shifting.

If you notice water pooling near fence lines, cables or pipes that need to be buried, or if you’re installing a fence on a slope, trench digging is necessary. These signs mean the ground needs grading or utility lines require proper depth. Site Technology uses trenching to create channels for drainage or to bury conduit, keeping your fence secure and compliant with local codes.

Excavation levels the ground and removes large rocks or tree roots that can block post placement. For example, if your yard slopes toward a neighbor’s property, we can excavate to create a stepped footing or a retaining wall base. This ensures your fence stays straight and durable, even on Stow’s varied terrain.
