Wood Fence Painting And Repair Basics
An exposed wood fence is prone to damages from moisture and the elements. Every few years you will need to have a wood fence repaired and painted.
Signs of Damage
Recognizing damage in its beginning phases helps to keep major problems from developing in your fence. Faded paint and discoloration, such as from sprinkler overspray, are often the first signs that damage will soon occur. The paint may also peel or even begin to bubble, especially if moisture has already penetrated into the wood.
