Fence Factory Tip: Whatever type of fence you have — wood, vinyl, ornamental or chain link — here are some easy steps you can take to keep it in shape:
1). Get rid of overhanging tree limbs and that can accumulate ice and potentially drop onto your fence, and may even bring a heavy chunk of the tree down with it.
2). Avoid piling mulch, leaves or wood against your fence. That’s a recipe for rot, rust or warping.
In fact, avoid moisture overall, as much as possible.
3). Don’t use your fence to shore up a sledding hill, and keep an eye on melting and freezing ice patches that could be damaging over the course of the season.
Your fence will thank you for it come spring.
