Fort Worth Fix It - Fort Worth's Reliable Fence Contractors

Continuous exposure to intense sunlight and high temperatures causes the wood's natural moisture to evaporate rapidly. This leads to expansion and contraction cycles that, over time, create stress cracks, splits, and warping. The problem is especially common with fences that face south or west and receive prolonged direct sunlight.

The most obvious sign is when the stain looks patchy, chalky, or much lighter in color than when it was first applied. You may also notice that water no longer beads on the surface but soaks in quickly, indicating the protective seal has worn away. Dry, rough wood that splinters easily is another clear indicator.

First, we inspect every board for structural damage. Badly cracked or splintered boards are replaced with new treated lumber. Then we power wash the entire fence to remove dirt and loose stain. Once dry, we apply a high-quality, UV-resistant exterior stain that bonds with the wood. This restores the color and seals the wood to protect it from future heat and sun damage.
