Here in Texas we have some of the hottest and driest seasons, when it comes to our fences this weather can affect the post dramatically. If you’ve noticed that your house or fence shifts in and out of seasons then you should practice these preventative maintenance methods.

Just as how people water their foundations to protect the concrete foundation from cracking and shifting the same methods can be performed on your fence post. Using either a dripper hose on your posts bases or by watering them directly during the hot and dry times, you can prevent your posts from shifting or leaning.
