Question Answers
What causes wood fence cracking in Divernon, and how can you fix it?
Cracking usually happens because of freeze-thaw cycles. Moisture gets into the wood, freezes, and expands, creating splits. Figure 8 Fencing can repair cracked boards by replacing damaged sections and then applying a weatherproofing stain to prevent future moisture absorption.
My privacy fence panels are loose after a storm — is this a common issue near Divernon?
Yes, high winds can loosen nails or brackets, especially on older fences. Figure 8 Fencing offers fence repair services to re-secure panels, replace broken hardware, and reinforce the structure. If the damage is widespread, a new installation may be more cost-effective.
Can you weatherproof a fence after installation to prevent future freeze-thaw damage?
Absolutely. Figure 8 Fencing provides fence weatherproofing, including staining and sealing, to protect wood from moisture and temperature changes. This is especially important for Divernon winters. We recommend doing this soon after installation and repeating every few years.
