BLOG Seasonal Fence Care: How Oakwood Fencing Keeps Your Barriers Strong in Every Season Aug 08, 2024

As the seasons change, so do the needs of your fence. From summer heat to winter frost, your fence is constantly exposed to the elements, which can take a toll on its strength and appearance. At Oakwood Fencing, we understand the importance of proper care and maintenance to keep your barriers strong and sturdy all year round.

Spring

With the arrival of spring, it's the perfect time to assess the condition of your fence after the harsh winter months. Our team at Oakwood Fencing recommends a thorough inspection of your fence to check for any signs of damage, such as loose boards, rusted nails, or rotting wood. We will also clean your fence to remove any dirt, debris, or mold that may have accumulated over the winter. Additionally, we can apply a fresh coat of paint or stain to enhance the appearance and protect the wood from future damage.

Summer

During the hot summer months, your fence is at risk of fading, warping, or even cracking due to prolonged exposure to the sun. Oakwood Fencing offers a range of services to combat these issues, including applying UV-protective finishes, repairing any damage caused by extreme temperatures, and reinforcing the structure to prevent leaning or sagging. By taking proactive measures in the summer, you can ensure that your fence remains strong and beautiful for years to come.

Fall

As the leaves begin to fall and the weather cools down, it's essential to prepare your fence for the upcoming winter season. Oakwood Fencing can help you weatherproof your fence by sealing any cracks or gaps, replacing damaged or missing boards, and trimming any overgrown vegetation that may be putting added strain on the structure. By addressing these issues in the fall, you can prevent further damage and prolong the life of your fence.

Winter

The winter months can be harsh on your fence, with snow, ice, and freezing temperatures posing significant challenges. Oakwood Fencing offers winter care services such as snow removal, ice melt application, and emergency repairs to address any damage caused by severe weather conditions. By being proactive in the winter, you can prevent costly repairs and ensure that your fence remains strong and secure.

Year-Round Maintenance

In addition to seasonal care, Oakwood Fencing recommends regular maintenance throughout the year to keep your fence in top condition. This includes inspecting for signs of wear and tear, cleaning with a gentle detergent, and applying protective coatings as needed. By investing in routine maintenance, you can extend the life of your fence and enhance the curb appeal of your property.
