All Natural Additions: Expert Fence Contractors Serving Beaverton, OR 97005

Beaverton’s frequent rain and damp soil create ideal conditions for moisture to seep into untreated wood. Over time, this leads to rot, especially at the base where posts contact the ground. Poor drainage around fence lines can accelerate decay. All Natural Additions recommends using pressure-treated or naturally rot-resistant woods like cedar, and installing concrete footings to keep wood elevated and dry.

Look for leaning sections, visible rot or soft spots near the ground, loose or missing pickets, and gates that sag or won’t latch properly. In Beaverton’s wet climate, even small cracks can let in moisture that spreads decay. If you notice these issues, it’s time for a professional assessment. All Natural Additions can inspect your fence and recommend repairs or a full replacement with durable materials.

Concrete is key to a long-lasting fence in our rainy area. Setting posts in concrete prevents them from shifting in wet soil and protects the wood from ground moisture. All Natural Additions also uses concrete for retaining walls and patio bases that support fence structures. This combination of quality fencing and masonry ensures your property stays secure and stable through Oregon’s wet winters.
