Local Fence Contractors in Hattiesburg, MS 39402 - Thaggard Fence

The main cause is our area's sandy clay soil combined with heavy rains. The soil becomes saturated, loosening the grip on standard posts. Thaggard Fence solves this by setting posts deep into the ground—often 24 to 30 inches—and using concrete that is mixed specifically for our soil conditions. This anchors the posts against shifting and keeps your fence straight for years.

Look for rotting wood near the bottom, loose or rusty nails, and gates that sag or drag. Also, check if panels wobble when you push them—that means the posts are losing hold. If you see any of these, especially before hurricane season, it’s best to call Thaggard Fence. We can reinforce weak spots or replace sections so your fence holds up against high winds.

Absolutely. We often do partial repairs for fences around Hattiesburg, including near the Longleaf Trace and Oak Grove. Warped panels are a sign that moisture got into the wood grain. We can match the style and stain to your existing fence, replace only the damaged sections, and add a sealant to protect against future humidity. No need to tear down a whole fence.
