Peterson's Painting & Building: Trusted Fence Contractors Serving Santa Rosa, CA 95409

Chain link corrosion is common here due to the combination of coastal moisture and seasonal fog. Galvanized coating wears down over time, exposing the steel. Our solution includes wire brushing the rust, applying a rust-inhibiting primer, and painting with a high-quality exterior metal paint. For severely corroded sections, we recommend replacement panels to restore strength and appearance.

Signs include deep splits, rot, or boards that feel spongy when pressed. If the wood is sound but the stain has failed from sun or moisture, we can power wash, sand, and re-apply a premium UV-resistant stain. However, if more than 30% of the boards are damaged, full replacement is a better long-term investment.

Yes. We use breathable, water-repellent stains and sealers designed for Santa Rosa's climate. For wood fences, we apply a system that penetrates deep to resist rain while allowing trapped moisture to escape. For chain link, we recommend anti-corrosion coatings. We also check gate hardware and post anchors to ensure the whole structure stays secure year-round.
