Climate Considerations in Texas

Intense heat (100°F+): UV damage, material expansion, work schedules. Hail (DFW/SA): Roof/fence damage, insurance claims. Hurricanes (coast): Wind-rated materials required. Flooding (Houston): Drainage critical. Mild winters: Year-round construction possible. Clay soil (Houston/DFW): Foundation movement affects all projects. Drought cycles: Soil shrinkage, concrete cracking. Recommended fence materials: Cedar very popular (local availability, handles humidity); Vinyl requires less maintenance in heat; Metal posts recommended with wood panels.
