Frequently Asked Questions

Why do wood fences rot quickly in Shipshewana, and how can you prevent it?

Shipshewana’s high humidity and frequent rain can cause wood fences to absorb moisture, leading to rot and decay. A common sign is soft, spongy wood near the base or discolored patches. Wana Acres Fencing prevents this by using pressure-treated lumber and applying high-quality weatherproofing sealants. We also ensure proper post drainage with gravel, extending your fence’s life by years.

What are signs that my fence gate needs repair or replacement?

If your gate sags, drags on the ground, or has gaps that let pets or livestock escape, it likely needs repair. Other signs include rusty hinges, cracked wood, or difficulty latching. Wana Acres Fencing can reinforce the frame, replace hardware, or install a new gate built to handle Shipshewana’s windy conditions, ensuring secure and smooth operation.

Should I paint or stain my fence to protect it from local weather?

Yes, a quality paint or stain adds a protective layer against moisture and UV rays, which is crucial in Shipshewana’s climate. Stains penetrate the wood and prevent cracking, while paints offer a durable shield. Our team recommends a semi-transparent stain for natural wood fences, re-applied every 3–5 years, to maintain beauty and strength.
