American Fence - Chippewa Falls's Professional Wood and Vinyl Fencing

Chippewa Falls experiences cold, wet winters and humid summers, which can accelerate wood rot, especially if the fence isn't properly sealed. American Fence can help by applying high-quality stains or weatherproofing treatments that protect against moisture. Regular maintenance, like annual inspections and resealing, also extends the life of your fence.

Common signs include loose or leaning posts, cracked or warped boards, rusty hinges on gates, and peeling paint or stain. Snow and ice can also cause gates to sag. If you notice any of these, American Fence can assess the damage and provide repairs to restore stability and appearance.

Moisture from the river and winter salt can cause metal fences to rust. American Fence recommends routine cleaning and applying a rust-inhibiting primer followed by weather-resistant paint. For existing rust, they can sand it down and repaint. Installation of aluminum or galvanized steel is also a long-term solution.
