Tri-county Fencing - Burleson's Experienced Fencing Company

Privacy fence blowouts typically occur when wind forces push against the solid surface of the fence panels. Over time, the posts loosen in the soil or the rails weaken, causing the panel to lean or fall. In Burleson, sudden gusts can catch a fence like a sail, especially if the posts are not set deep enough or the soil is sandy. Tri-county Fencing addresses this by using deeper post holes and concrete footings to anchor posts securely.

Look for visible signs such as leaning posts, gaps between panels, loose or missing nails, or cracks in the wood. After a storm, check for sagging gates or panels that shift when pushed. In Burleson neighborhoods like Hidden Creek, homeowners often notice these issues after strong spring winds. Tri-county Fencing can inspect your fence and identify weak points before a full blowout occurs, saving you time and money.

The best solution depends on the extent of the damage. For minor issues, Tri-county Fencing can replace damaged panels and reinforce the remaining structure. For more severe damage, such as multiple leaning posts, they recommend replacing the affected sections with stronger materials and deeper post installations. They also suggest adding wind breaks or using semi-solid panels to reduce wind resistance, which is especially helpful in open areas near the Chisholm Trail Parkway.
