Legacy Fence Company | Local Fence Installation in Austin, TX

Fence discoloration in Austin is primarily caused by prolonged UV exposure, humidity, and mildew growth. Wood fences often turn gray or develop dark spots, while vinyl can yellow over time. To prevent this, Legacy Fence Company recommends using UV-resistant stains or paints on wood, and applying a protective sealant annually. For vinyl, periodic cleaning with a mild detergent and water helps maintain its original color. We also suggest positioning fences to minimize direct afternoon sun where possible.

Signs of hail damage include dents in metal or vinyl fences, splintering or cracking in wood, and chipped paint or coating. After a hailstorm, inspect your fence for these issues, especially on exposed sides. If you notice damage, contact Legacy Fence Company for a free assessment. We can repair or replace affected sections with materials that better withstand Austin’s hailstorms, such as impact-resistant vinyl or thicker-gauge metal.

For Austin’s mix of hail, heat, and humidity, Legacy Fence Company recommends aluminum or steel with a powder-coated finish for durability against dents and fading. Cedar or pressure-treated pine with a high-quality UV-blocking stain works well for wood lovers. Vinyl with impact-resistant properties is also a good option, though it may require more frequent cleaning to prevent discoloration. We help you choose the right material based on your property’s exposure and your budget.
