Common Questions
What causes fence posts to become loose in San Antonio?
The main cause is soil movement due to the region's expansive clay. When it rains, the soil swells; during dry spells, it shrinks and cracks. This cycle loosens the grip on fence posts, leading to instability and leaning.
How can I tell if my fence is suffering from soil-related damage?
Look for signs like posts that wobble when pushed, gaps between the post and ground, leaning sections, or cracks in the wood near the base. Rust on metal posts or sagging gates are also common indicators.
What solution does Zawacki Construction offer for unstable fence posts?
We replace or reinforce posts using concrete footings that extend below the frost line and incorporate gravel for drainage. This minimizes soil contact and movement, providing a stable foundation that resists San Antonio's shifting soils.
