Yards & conditions in Austin
Austin sits in USDA hardiness zone 8b with long, hot summers and short, mild winters. Local yards typically deal with expansive clay and caliche and intense summer heat, drought restrictions and shifting clay soils. That’s why Austin lawns are usually planted with heat-tolerant Bermuda, St. Augustine and Zoysia, with the best results in spring through early summer. A local pro factors all of this in — read more in our guide.
When to schedule fence installation in Austin
Fence installs in Austin are easiest in spring through early summer and other dry stretches, when digging post holes goes smoothly. Booking ahead secures peak-season slots.
