Bonito Landscape | Expert Fencing Company in Lynnwood, WA

Fence post decay in Lynnwood is primarily caused by constant exposure to moisture from rain, snow, and damp soil, which leads to wood rot and fungal growth. Bonito Landscape prevents this by using pressure-treated or naturally rot-resistant woods like cedar, installing gravel drainage at post bases, and applying waterproof sealants. We also recommend periodic inspections to catch early signs of decay, especially in low-lying areas near Alderwood Manor.

Signs of a sagging gate include difficulty latching, uneven gaps between the gate and post, or dragging on the ground. This often results from moisture damage weakening hinges or posts. Bonito Landscape solutions include reinforcing hinges with longer screws, replacing rotted posts, or installing a tension cable to realign the gate. We also address the root cause by improving drainage around the gate posts to prevent future sagging.

Yes, we provide comprehensive weatherproofing services for existing fences, including cleaning, applying wood preservatives, and sealing with waterproof stains or paints. This is especially important in areas like near Lynnwood High School, where fences face both rain and sun exposure. Our treatment helps prevent cracking, warping, and rot, extending your fence's life by several years. We recommend reapplication every 2-3 years for optimal protection.
