Question Answers

Why does fence staining deteriorate so quickly in Bellingham's climate?

Bellingham's frequent rain, humidity, and UV exposure cause stain to fade, peel, or mold faster. Sampsons combats this by pressure-washing, applying a mildewcide, and using a high-quality semi-transparent or solid stain with UV protection. We also recommend annual maintenance to extend the life of your fence.

What are signs that vegetation is damaging my fence?

Look for leaning posts, rotting wood at ground level, vines pulling boards apart, or roots pushing against the base. In Bellingham, overgrown blackberries and ivy are common culprits. Sampsons can assess the damage, replace rotted sections, and trim back plants to prevent future issues.

How can I protect my fence from vegetation damage?

Keep shrubs, vines, and trees at least 2 feet away from your fence line. Regularly trim back growth and use a root barrier if needed. For existing fences, Sampsons offers weatherproofing and repair services—including replacing damaged pickets and applying a protective sealant—to help your fence withstand Bellingham's lush landscape.
