It’s That Time of Year Again: Protect Your Fence and Gates
It’s That Time of Year Again: Protect Your Fence and Gates

Here in North Texas, we all know how important it is to water the foundation of our homes during the hot, dry months. But did you know the same principle applies to your fence and gates?
As the ground dries out and begins to shrink, it pulls away from the concrete and posts that support your fence. This movement can cause posts to become loose, leading to leaning sections of fence and gates that no longer open or close smoothly.
The good news? A little maintenance goes a long way. By simply watering along your fence line and around your posts, you can help prevent the ground from drying and shifting too much. This keeps your posts stable, your fence standing tall, and your gates operating the way they should.
Why It Matters:
- Prevents leaning fences and sagging gates
- Helps maintain security and curb appeal
- Avoids costly repairs down the road
Just like your home’s foundation, your fence needs attention when the Texas heat sets in. Taking this simple step now can save you time, money, and stress later.
