Sage & Cedar | Trusted Fencing Company in Tacoma, WA

Tacoma's damp climate and rainy winters cause wooden fence posts to absorb moisture, leading to rot and decay, especially where posts contact soil. Sage & Cedar addresses this by replacing rotted posts with pressure-treated or rot-resistant materials during siding or fence repairs. We also recommend proper drainage and sealing to prevent future issues. When siding near a fence line is damaged by the same moisture, we can replace it with weather-resistant siding like fiber cement or vinyl, creating a cohesive barrier against Tacoma's wet weather.

Look for orange-brown stains on your fence boards, hinges, or gate latches — that’s rust forming on nails, screws, or brackets. In Tacoma’s humid air and frequent rain, standard hardware can corrode quickly. Sage & Cedar can replace rusted hardware with stainless steel or galvanized alternatives during siding or fence repair. We also inspect and secure loose boards, ensuring your fence remains sturdy and rust-free for years.

Yes, it's best to address both issues together. Rotting fence posts often trap moisture against your home’s siding, causing rot or warping. Sage & Cedar provides combined siding repair and fence post replacement services, tackling the root cause and preventing mold or structural damage. We match new siding to your existing style, using materials that resist Tacoma's humidity, and treat the area to avoid future decay.
