What is the expected service life of a wooden fence?

Hello! Welcome to the video with information about the expected life of wood fences. Wood fences are the best choice for any storage project, building walls, fences, structures and much more. Wood fences are beautiful, durable and last a long time if properly maintained.


A common question is: How long will wood fences last? The answer depends on materials, treatment and maintenance. The expected lifespan of a wood fence is generally between 10 and 15 years. For the longest durability, you should treat the wood with a protective treatment before beginning installation.


Treatment protects the wood, either by applying a protective coating, such as varnish or oil; or by soaking it in a protective liquid to fill the pores. The treatment also provides protection against the damaging effects of exposure to an external environment, such as rain, snow, sun and dust.


To preserve the service life of Residential Wood Fencing Chicago, it is important to perform periodic maintenance. This involves frequently checking the condition of joints and screws, cleaning the surface and repairing worn or damaged sections. We also recommend applying treatment at least once a year to protect it from the elements.


Regular maintenance can increase its service life by up to 30 years. The expected life of a wood fence varies depending on the material used, the protective treatment and the level of maintenance. If you want to get the most out of your wood fences, follow these tips and take care of your wood for the best durability and beauty in the future.
