Local Fencing Company in Brownstown Township, MI 48183 - TBL Construction

Freeze-thaw cycles in winter cause soil to shift, while heavy spring rains can soften the ground around fence posts. Over time, wooden posts may rot at the base, leading to instability. TBL Construction addresses this by replacing affected posts with pressure-treated lumber set in concrete below the frost line, ensuring stability. Alternatively, we can install metal post anchors to prevent future leaning.

A sagging gate often indicates that the hinge-side post has loosened in the soil or that the gate frame has warped from moisture. This can lead to further damage if neglected, like broken hinges or misaligned latches. TBL Construction can re-set the post properly or replace the gate with a reinforced frame. We'll also check for proper drainage to reduce future moisture issues.

For our local conditions, we recommend aluminum or vinyl fences for wind resistance, as they won't rot or warp. If you prefer wood, we use cedar with proper sealants and set posts in concrete with gravel at the base to allow drainage. TBL Construction also installs wind-rated gates with heavy-duty hinges. We tailor the solution to your specific yard conditions and budget.
