How to Prolong the Life of Your Fence

Here Are 4 Things You Must do For Your Fence

1) Keep the top of your fence clear from debris and other materials that might accumulate there; this part of the fence will be exposed to more debris and other materials if these are allowed to accumulate, they can cause damage over time which could lead to a shorter lifespan for your fence.

Additionally, branches on trees near a property's perimeter need regular maintenance so as not become entangled with or snap off fences in high wind events. The best way to do this is by sweeping it clear with an appropriate brush or broom. This should be done at

2) Maintain a regular frequency for cleaning, painting and repairing your fence;  This is the best way to keep your fence looking great for years and will help it last longer. Properly maintained fences are also much more attractive than their neglected counterparts, which can detract from the

appearance of a property.

There are several steps involved in maintaining one's fence

• Cleaning - this involves removing dirt or other materials accumulated on top of the wood with an appropriate brush or broom;
• Painting - painting will make sure that all areas where paint has worn away, peeling or chipped off have been repaired/painted over; and finally
• Repairing broken sections as needed. This should be done at least once every three months (or after any extreme weather event) so that damage doesn't accumulate too quickly.

3) Install an anti-climb coating on any exposed metal (e.g., nails)This is a great idea for those who don't want their fence to be easily accessed by others. Anti-climb coatings are usually made from materials like bitumen, polyester or acrylic gloss paint and are applied in an even layer over the metal points on fencing panels where it can not be seen - nails included. One of its many benefits is that when correctly installed, these coats act as deterrents against unwanted climbers without intruding on other areas of your property with unsightly markings and obstructions!

4) Try not to let vegetation grow too close to the base of the fence.

This is a very important step to take. If vegetation grows too close to your fence, there's a risk that it can eventually cause structural damage and lead to expensive repairs! The best way to avoid this is by maintaining an appropriate clearance zone of at least 60cm (or two feet) around the base of your fencing panels or posts in order for them not to become overwhelmed with roots which will inevitably have adverse effects on their stability over time.
