Mountain Fence | Professional Fence Installation in Oakhurst, CA

The primary cause is prolonged exposure to intense ultraviolet radiation from the sun. Oakhurst sits at around 2,300 feet elevation, and the high-altitude sun is stronger than in lower valleys. This breaks down the polymer bonds in vinyl, leading to fading, chalking, and brittleness over time.

Look for signs like uneven fading or whitening of the color, a chalky residue when you rub the surface, small cracks or brittleness when you tap the fence, and warping or sagging in extreme cases. If your fence faces south or west, it’s more likely to show damage first.

We assess the extent of the damage. For mild discoloration, we can apply a UV-protective coating to restore color and slow further damage. For severely cracked or brittle sections, we replace the affected panels with UV-stabilized vinyl that resists Oakhurst’s sun. We also offer painting or staining options for older fences that have lost their original look.
