Woodsmith Fencing | Best Fence Contractors in Murfreesboro, TN

The main cause is our heavy clay soil, which holds moisture and can shift after rain. This leads to post rot at ground level and leaning from unstable foundations. Woodsmith Fencing solves this by setting posts in concrete with gravel drainage, using pressure-treated wood rated for ground contact.

Signs include sagging, difficulty latching, or gaps between the gate and post. If you hear squeaking or see rust on hinges, it's time for service. Woodsmith Fencing can reinforce hinges, adjust posts, or replace hardware to keep your gate functioning smoothly.

For year-round privacy and durability against humidity and storms, we recommend cedar or vinyl. Cedar naturally resists rot, while vinyl won't warp or fade. Both options are available from Woodsmith Fencing, and we install them with weather-resistant fasteners to handle local conditions.
