What Are The Common Fencing Problems And Their Prevention?
by Chris D. Fencing Contractor & Repair ExpertsAn elegant & well-maintained security fence not only enhances privacy but also adds value to a property. For better looks as well as security, proper maintenance is highly essential. Otherwise, you may face several fencing issues.
In this blog, we are going to discuss common fencing problems and their prevention.
1. Rust & corrosion
Rust & corrosion is some of the common problems faced by many fence owners. This problem is mostly found in iron fences. According to the professional fencing contractors in Perth, rust & corrosion may damage security fences badly. However, there are several ways to fix rust and corrosion problems. Sealants should be used to protect fences from rust.
2. Missing boards or pickets
This is one of the common problems for both wooden and vinyl fences. Although replacing the missing boards as well as pickets is easy but there are some limitations. Generally, vinyl security fences are prefabricated. Sometimes, the entire fencing panels can be replaced to fix this problem. Moreover, if you want to replace the pickets or boards then you have to opt for professional fencing experts who can fix the issues professionally.
3. Damaged or missing slats
Damaged slats are mostly found in wooden security fences. Damaged or missing slats are generally caused by high wind or strong impact. Strong impact mainly happens when a car or vehicle collides with wooden fences accidentally. Apart from that, if the dogs continuously pull slats then they can be badly damaged.
4. Discolouration
Last but not the least, wood or iron fences can be discoloured over time due to the presence of moisture, rain, UV-rays and other factors. This is a very common problem faced by many fence owners in Perth. To repair this issue, fences should be painted with high-quality paint coats. Apart from that, many fencing experts in Perth suggest installing colourbond fences instead of wooden or iron fences. This is because colourbond fences can withstand Perth’s harsh climate and they are rust proof, heat and frost resistant and termite-proof. These fences also add a layer of beauty to your property as they are available in several colours and designs. They also require very low maintenance as compared to other fences.
Fencing is a long term investment. Due to lack of maintenance and care, you may face certain problems that we discussed above. To repair any kind of fencing issue, call the fencing professionals near you as early as possible.
