Is your fence ready for hurricane season?
A solid fence creates a secluded and private space for you to enjoy your yard without feeling like you're on display.
A sturdy fence deters unwanted visitors and provides extra security by keeping your family and belongings safe.
A well-maintained fence adds the perfect finishing look to your property and enhances its overall visual appeal.
Here at Zachary Fence, we're all about keeping your property secure, and that includes your fence! We're sharing some helpful tips for both hurricane season and general fence maintenance.
Hurricane Season Preparedness for Your Fence:
Inspect and reinforce: Before a storm hits, take a walk around your fence and check for any loose posts, rotting wood, or weak panels. Repair or replace any damaged sections to ensure your fence can withstand strong winds.
Trim back trees: Overhanging branches can become dangerous during a hurricane. Trim any limbs that could hit your fence or house.
Clear debris: Remove any loose objects, furniture, trampolines, or decorations from around your fence. These can take flight and damage your fence or property.
Consider hurricane fence options: If you're due for a fence replacement, you should consider high-wind-rated options like metal fencing designed specifically for hurricane zones.
Fence Staining and Replacement:
Regularly inspect your fence for signs of wear and tear, such as peeling paint or fading stain.
Staining your fence protects it from the elements and extends its lifespan. The ideal time to stain is usually in spring or early winter when the weather is more mild and dry.
If your fence is severely damaged, rotting, or leaning significantly, it's time for a replacement.
