Dura Fence and Painting - Seattle's Top-Rated Fence Builders

In Seattle's damp climate, chain link fences often corrode due to constant moisture, salt air near Puget Sound, and poor galvanization on older materials. You might notice rust spots, weakened links, or brittle coatings. We address this by removing corroded sections, replacing damaged posts or rails, and applying a rust-inhibiting primer followed by a weatherproof fence paint or stain. For severe cases, we recommend upgrading to a vinyl-coated chain link or a durable wood fence that better withstands our wet winters.

Signs of alignment problems include a gate that sticks or won't latch, a fence that visibly leans, or gaps at the bottom where it doesn't follow the ground. These issues often happen after heavy rain saturates the soil, causing posts to shift. Yes, we can fix this without a full replacement. We'll realign and reset leaning posts with fresh concrete, adjust tension wires, and replace any damaged hardware. For gates, we adjust hinges and rehang them to swing smoothly. This is a common fix in neighborhoods like Phinney Ridge and Columbia City.

Weatherproofing is especially important in Seattle to protect against rain, mold, and freeze-thaw cycles. For wood fences, we clean the surface, apply a mildewcide, and then seal or stain with a high-quality exterior-grade product that repels water. For metal fences, we remove any existing rust, apply a rust converter, and finish with a weather-resistant paint. We also check post footings and backfill with gravel to improve drainage. This proactive service helps your fence stay straight and rust-free for years, whether you're in Madrona or Magnolia.
