While it's important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations, generally, wood fencing should be stained every five years and sealers should be applied every two to three years. This maintenance helps keep the fence looking fresh and provides the best protection against Florida's harsh weather and outdoor elements.

To clean wood fencing, start by wetting the fence and then use a pressure washer with a 25-degree tip. Use a low-pressure setting, clean a few boards at a time, scrub any stained areas, and let it sit. Rinse and repeat until the entire fence is clean. Following these steps helps many Pensacola property owners protect their investment for years.

It depends! Sanding is unnecessary for staining a brand-new wood fence. However, if you're staining an older fence, whether it has been painted before or not, sanding is recommended to remove the old finish and prepare the wood for the new stain. For more detailed questions, our fence professionals at Mr. Fence of Pensacola are available to help.

Yes, you should! Before applying any finish to a wood fence in Florida, remove any old finishes, built-up dirt, dust, grime, or other substances. Pressure washing will effectively clean the surface.

The best way to keep your new wooden fence looking new is to paint or stain it every few years and keep it clean. This not only keeps it looking fresh but also helps protect it throughout the year in the Pensacola Florida area.

If your wood fence is made with dry materials, it's a good rule of thumb to wait a month or two to allow it to weather a bit before applying a finish. If the fence is made with pressure-treated wood materials, it may take 3-4 months for the posts to dry sufficiently. You can check the dryness with a moisture meter.

A shadow box fence is a popular wood privacy fence that is made to look equally finished on both sides. When installed on your Pensacola property, it can create privacy without showing the wooden rails holding it together like a standard privacy fence would.

Yes, it certainly can be! While the airflow is more restricted compared to a wood fence with widely spaced pickets, shadow box fences can withstand windy conditions better than privacy fences with no spacing at all.
