How the Cold can Affect your Fence

Wow I can't believe it's about to be December. This year has gone by so fast! We've shifted our mindsets to cold weather and want to continue to share tips and information with you.

This time we wanted to focus on fencing in Bluffton IN. The cold can impact your fence in numerous ways. One big way is the moisture. Whether it's snow or rain, any moisture that comes in contact with your fence can cause damage it. It is important to add a stain or finish to your fence after it's constructed.

Another big impact the winter can have is due to the change of temperatures. Wood, like most materials, expands and contracts when the temperature increases and decreases. This can cause the wood to warp or bend in unwanted ways.

If it has been a while since you've inspected your fence, take a while to check it out and call somebody to make sure it can last the winter.
