About the Local Business
Summerville Welding provides expert metal fabrication, fence and gate services to New Braunfels, TX, and surrounding areas. A common local issue we address is fence post instability caused by the region's expansive clay soils, which shift with moisture changes and can loosen standard posts. We also resolve privacy fence blowouts that occur during strong Texas winds. Our team reinforces wooden and metal fences with custom steel bracing and deep-set posts to withstand these conditions. Conveniently located near the Comal River and serving neighborhoods like Gruene and Hunter's Crossing, we handle everything from fence painting and weatherproofing to automatic gate installation and custom metalwork.
Common Questions
My fence posts feel loose, especially after rain. What causes this in New Braunfels?
The primary cause is soil movement. New Braunfels has a lot of expansive clay soil that swells when wet and shrinks when dry. This shifting can loosen the soil around your fence posts over time, making them unstable. Other causes include wood rot in wooden posts or rust in older metal posts.
How can Summerville Welding fix a privacy fence that has blown over or is leaning?
We assess the damage and the root cause. If posts are loose, we can reset them deeper into the ground and set them in concrete for better stability. For severe blowouts, we often recommend reinforcing the fence with custom metal bracing or replacing damaged posts with stronger materials. We also offer weatherproofing and painting to protect the repaired sections.
What is the best way to prevent my metal fence from rusting near the Comal River?
The high humidity and moisture near the Comal River can accelerate rust. The best solution is a combination of weatherproofing and regular maintenance. We apply high-quality rust-inhibiting primers and paints designed for outdoor metal. It's also important to inspect your fence annually for chips or scratches and touch them up quickly to prevent rust from spreading.
