Questions and Answers
What causes wood fences to rot so quickly in Pembroke's climate?
The main culprits are Pembroke's high humidity in summer and freeze-thaw cycles in winter. Moisture gets trapped in the wood, leading to rot, while ice expansion can crack boards. Staining and weatherproofing help seal the wood, but untreated fences typically start showing damage within a few years. Regular maintenance can triple the life of your fence.
How can I tell if my fence needs repair or replacement?
Look for signs like loose or leaning posts, cracked or splintered boards, visible rot near the ground, and difficulty opening gates. If more than 30% of the fence is affected, replacement is often more cost-effective than repair. For minor issues like a few rotted pickets or a sagging gate, we can do targeted repairs to extend its life.
Do you offer solutions to protect new fences from Pembroke's weather?
Absolutely. We recommend pressure-treated lumber or rot-resistant species like cedar or redwood. For ultimate durability, consider vinyl or aluminum fencing. We also apply a high-quality weatherproofing stain or sealant during installation, and we offer periodic maintenance plans to keep your fence looking great for years.
