Stur-D Fence Post Brackets: Local Fence Builders Serving Beaverton, OR 97006

Beaverton’s rainy climate and clay soil create a perfect storm for fence post problems. Heavy rain saturates the ground, softening the soil around the post, while freeze-thaw cycles in winter heave the post upward. Over time, this weakens the wood at ground level, causing rot and instability. Stur-D brackets eliminate ground contact, so your posts stay straight and strong no matter the weather.

Look for signs like a post that wobbles when you push it, visible rot near the base, or a fence that sags or leans. In Beaverton, you might also notice the post pulling away from the rail or the wood feeling spongy after a rainy week. If you see any of these, it’s time to replace the post—and using Stur-D brackets ensures the new one won’t suffer the same fate.

Absolutely. Stur-D brackets are designed for both new builds and repairs. For a leaning post, we can often remove the old post, set a bracket in concrete, and reattach the post above ground. This saves you the cost and labor of replacing the entire fence. It’s a neighborly solution that gets your fence back in shape quickly, right here in Beaverton.
