Quality Painting & Fencing: Reliable Fencing Company Serving Santa Rosa, CA 95409

Santa Rosa's hot, dry summers cause the wood in your fence to lose moisture unevenly, leading to warping and cupping. We solve this by using kiln-dried, heat-treated lumber that resists moisture changes, and we install fences with proper expansion gaps. For existing warped fences, we can replace damaged boards and apply a protective sealant to minimize future warping.

Yes, that's likely fence expansion damage from Santa Rosa's seasonal humidity swings. Wood swells when it's damp and contracts when it's dry, which can push panels apart. Our solution is to disassemble the affected sections, re-space the pickets with correct gaps, and use stainless steel fasteners that won't corrode. We also treat the wood with a moisture-resistant finish to reduce future expansion.

A high-quality exterior paint or stain acts as a barrier against Santa Rosa's UV rays and heat, reflecting sunlight and reducing the temperature of the wood surface. This slows down moisture loss and prevents the cracking and warping common in our climate. We use paint specifically formulated for wood fences, applied with a primer to ensure it adheres and protects for years.
