Steeplechase Construction - Franklin's Experienced Fencing Company

Look for leaning trunks, large dead branches, or roots that are lifting or cracking your fence. After storms common in Franklin, check for split limbs or exposed roots near your property line. If you see these signs, it's wise to call Steeplechase Construction for an assessment.

Regular tree care, like pruning overhanging branches and removing weak or diseased trees, prevents them from falling on your fence during wind or ice storms. Steeplechase Construction can also identify trees whose roots may be undermining fence posts, allowing for proactive solutions.

The main causes are root growth from large trees pushing against fence posts, and falling limbs from storms or decay. Older trees in established Franklin neighborhoods often have extensive root systems that can shift or crack concrete footings, while storm damage can break fence panels.
