Wells Fencing: Best Wood and Vinyl Fencing Serving Waxahachie, TX 75165

The primary cause is prolonged exposure to high heat and direct sunlight, which dries out the wood and causes it to twist. In Waxahachie, afternoon sun can be intense. To prevent warping, Wells Fencing uses kiln-dried wood with proper moisture content and applies a weather-resistant sealant. We also install fences with slight gaps between boards to allow for natural expansion and contraction.

Look for vines or shrubs growing directly against or through the fence, pushing boards outward or causing rot from trapped moisture. You might also notice leaning posts or loose rails near overgrown flower beds. If you see these signs, trimming back vegetation at least 6 inches from the fence line can help, and Wells Fencing can inspect and reinforce any weakened sections.

Yes, in most cases we can. The solution depends on how much the posts have shifted. We dig down to expose the post base, straighten it, and then secure it with concrete or a gravel footing. If the wood is rotted from plant moisture, we replace the affected posts and recommend metal post supports for long-term stability. We serve all Waxahachie areas, including near the Waxahachie Creek greenbelt.
