Patricias Lawn Care - Kent's Top-Rated Fencing Company

Chain link fence corrosion in Kent is primarily caused by moisture from rain and sprinklers, combined with soil acidity and contact with fertilizers or de-icing salts. When grass and weeds grow against the fence, they trap moisture against the metal, speeding up rust. Poor drainage around fence posts also contributes by keeping the base of the fence damp. Patricia's Lawn Care helps by keeping the area around your fence clear and maintaining proper lawn drainage.

Signs of fence post erosion include leaning posts, cracks in the concrete around the base, visible soil washout, or a wobbling fence. You might also notice grass dying or mud pooling near the post. Over time, erosion weakens the foundation, leading to instability. Patricia's Lawn Care can assess your lawn's grading and suggest improvements like adding topsoil, adjusting sprinklers, or installing drains to prevent further erosion.

Regular lawn care reduces moisture and soil movement around fences. By mowing grass short near fence lines, we prevent moisture buildup that causes rust. Aeration improves drainage, preventing water from pooling at post bases. Edging keeps soil from building up against the fence, reducing corrosion risk. Patricia's Lawn Care's services create a healthier lawn that naturally protects your fence from Kent's wet climate.
