Common Questions

What causes fence posts to shift and gates to sag in Bay City?

The main culprit is frost heave. During winter, the ground freezes and expands, pushing fence posts upward and out of alignment. When the ground thaws, the posts settle unevenly, causing gates to sag and panels to warp. T&J'S Checklist Fencing prevents this by setting posts below the frost line (typically 48 inches deep) and using gravel backfill for drainage.

How can I tell if my fence needs repair or replacement?

Look for signs like leaning sections, cracked or rotted wood, rusted metal fasteners, and gates that no longer latch properly. If more than 30% of the fence is damaged, replacement may be more cost-effective. For Bay City's climate, we recommend an annual inspection after winter to catch frost-related damage early.

What fencing materials work best for Bay City's weather?

For our freeze-thaw cycles and occasional high winds along the Saginaw Bay, we recommend pressure-treated pine or cedar for wood fences, and vinyl or aluminum for low-maintenance options. These materials resist moisture and are less prone to warping. T&J'S can also install chain-link with a galvanized coating to prevent rust.
