Q&A

What causes fence boards to warp in Fort Lauderdale?

In Fort Lauderdale, constant humidity, direct sun exposure, and moisture from seasonal rain cause wood to expand and contract unevenly. Salt air from the coast accelerates this process, leading to warped fence boards. We combat this by using kiln-dried, pressure-treated lumber and proper spacing during installation to allow for natural movement.

How can I tell if my fence has mold or mildew?

Look for dark green, black, or white patches on the surface of your fence, especially in shaded or damp areas. A musty smell or slimy texture also indicates mold or mildew growth. If left untreated, it can weaken the wood and cause discoloration. Our team offers gentle pressure washing and eco-friendly treatments to remove growth without damaging your fence.

What is the best solution to prevent fence damage from humidity and mold?

The most effective solution is a combination of proper material choice, regular cleaning, and a protective sealant. We recommend using cedar or vinyl in humid areas, and applying a UV-resistant, anti-microbial stain after installation. Annual inspections and gentle washing with a mildewcide keep your fence healthy. Universal Fence provides maintenance packages tailored to Fort Lauderdale’s climate.
