A wooden fence can be a fantastic addition to any property. Besides enhancing the aesthetics of your home, it offers privacy and security. However, like any other outdoor structure, wooden fences are often subjected to harsh weather conditions and if not properly maintained, they can deteriorate over time. This is where Top Ace Fences, Deck and Home Improvement comes in! With over ten years of experience, we’re here to shed light on how you can preserve your wooden fences and extend their lifespan.
To start with, regular inspection holds the key to maintaining the beauty and functionality of your fence. We recommend conducting a thorough check at least twice a year, preferably during spring and fall. Look out for any signs of damage or wear, such as loose or missing boards, splintering, rot, or insect damage.
One of the commonly overlooked aspects of fence maintenance is cleaning. Over time, dirt, mold, and mildew can accumulate on your fence, causing it to look aged and worn. A simple solution of warm water and a mild detergent, coupled with a soft brush, can work wonders in removing these impurities. For stubborn stains, a power washer can be used, but with caution as too much pressure can damage the wood. Remember, a clean fence is not just aesthetically appealing, it also forms the perfect base for applying sealant or paint.
Next comes the crucial part: painting and sealing your wooden fence. This not only rejuvenates the look of your fence but also provides a protective layer against sun, rain, and snow. At Top Ace, we believe in using superior quality materials, hence we recommend high-quality, weather-resistant paint or a water-repellent sealant that deters moisture infiltration, thereby preventing rot and extending the life of the fence.
Despite routine cleaning and sealing, no wooden fence can stay immune to damage forever. However, quick repairs can prevent minor issues from snowballing into a complete fence replacement. Whether it’s a split board, a leaning post, or a rusty hardware, contact a professional immediately to rectify the problem. Top Ace's team of skilled professionals is just a call away.
Lastly, don’t forget to check for any vegetation growing on or near your fence. While climbing vines can make your fence look pretty, they can also trap moisture against the wood and speed up decay. Similarly, large bushes or trees near your fence can create a damp, shady environment that encourages molds. Therefore, it is advisable to prune any plants regularly that are too close to the fence.
Here at Top Ace, we understand that every homeowner wants their living space to look great. We believe that with a little effort and proper care, your wooden fence can continue to enhance your property's aesthetic appeal and functionality for years to come.
