Does Your Fence Need Sunscreen?

Sun damage causes the fence to premature before it’s time. That’s why we are asking the question, “Does Your Fence Need Sunscreen?”

In the summer months the sun tends to be hotter, and the atmosphere is dryer which in turn may intensify sun damage on the fence.

Fence maintenance is crucial to keep it looking good. We all want a fence to last 15-20 years or more. It’s important to have a professional fence company evaluate the fence in your yard every two to three years.

When the fence is neglected, it could be quite costly to repair or replace.

The sun damages the fence much like it damages our skin. The UV rays will burn our skin if we don’t use a high SPF sunscreen daily. Much like the fence the best way to protect your fence for longevity is to use a fence stain with a UV blocker.

When a quality fence stain is not used, the fence will suffer from fading in color, lose its strength, become brittle, crack and disintegrate.

Of course, planning for a fence to be built in the shade would be optimum however living in a North Texas neighbor there are not a lot of trees on a residential lot.

Sun damage will cause the fence to grey, look lack luster as well as dries the fence pickets out over time and could split/rot the wood.

Fences are an important part of our lives. They provide us with protection, privacy, and security. But they also need some TLC. Learn how to take care of your fences so they stay beautiful for years to come!
