Frequently Asked Questions
What causes fence posts to lean or rot in Hailey’s climate?
Hailey’s freeze-thaw cycles and heavy snow cause soil to shift, loosening posts. Moisture from rain and snowmelt also rots untreated wood. Uhrig Fencing uses pressure-treated posts set in concrete below the frost line to prevent leaning and decay, and we recommend annual sealing for wood fences.
What are signs that my fence needs repair before winter?
Look for loose or missing boards, sagging gates, rusted nails, and posts that move when pushed. In Hailey, wind-driven snow can widen gaps, letting deer into yards. If you see daylight under the gate or hear creaking, call us for a free inspection – we’ll reinforce weak spots before the first snowfall.
How can I keep my fence from being damaged by deer or elk?
Deer and elk often push against fences to reach shrubs or escape predators. For Hailey properties near the foothills, we install tall, sturdy mesh fences (at least 8 feet) with angled top rails. We also add tension wires and use metal posts to resist impact. A well-built wildlife-proof fence saves you from costly repairs every spring.
