What Columbia’s houses mean for fencing
Older neighborhoods have established trees along the lines and old fence posts to pull; the layout works around root zones and the tear-out is part of the job.
In the historic district fence styles on the street side may be governed by the review board — picket heights, materials, no privacy fence in front — and the plan goes to them first.
The house and its lot — the garage side, the drive, the downspouts along the line — set the gate placement and the layout, and the crew walks it before the quote.
New subdivisions have the property pins fresh in the ground and HOA rules on style and height; the fence goes up quickly once the approval is in hand.
In clay the post holes hold water, and a post set in a wet hole without proper concrete rots at the ground line first; drainage at the base of the post is part of setting it.

What brings us to Columbia.
Setting posts in Middle Tennessee frequently means meeting limestone. Across much of Davidson, Williamson and Rutherford County the bedrock sits close enough to the surface that a standard post hole hits rock, and the honest answer is either a rock drill or an engineered alternative — not a shallower hole. A post set eighteen inches deep because that is where the auger stopped is a post that will lean.
- Sections pushed out of line by a tree root or a storm
- A new dog, a new pool, or a neighbor situation that has changed what you need
- Posts leaning, or that move when you push on them
- Rot at the base of wood posts where they meet the concrete
Concrete poured level with grade. Water pools on a flat concrete collar and sits against the post. It should be crowned to shed.

Fencing on a Slope: Racked or Stepped
A fence built for a flat yard looks wrong on a hill and leaves gaps a dog walks under. The choice between racking and stepping is made before the first post goes in.
