Fence Installation Raeford NC | Call Word of Mouth Lawn Care

In Raeford, the primary cause of leaning fences is the combination of heavy clay soil that expands and contracts with moisture, and strong wind gusts that can push against the panels. You might first notice a fence gate starting to drag or an uneven gap at the top of the panels. Our team at Word of Mouth Lawn Care solves this by removing the affected posts, setting new ones in concrete below the frost line, and reinforcing the entire section to ensure it stands straight against the elements.

Look for dead or hanging branches, cracks in the trunk, or fungus growing at the base of the tree—these are common signs of decay or stress. After a storm, you might also notice the tree leaning more than usual or soil heaving at the roots. We provide expert tree care services, including pruning to remove hazardous limbs and, if necessary, safe removal of the entire tree to protect your home and property.

Yes, it often is. Shade from an overhanging tree can prevent grass from growing, and a leaning fence can create a damp, compacted area that favors weeds. Our solution is a two-part approach: first, we trim back the tree canopy to let more sunlight reach the grass, and second, we repair or replace the fence to improve airflow and drainage. After that, we can overseed and fertilize your lawn to restore a thick, healthy turf.
