Simple steps can save your fence from Idaho’s winter woes.

Why Idaho Fences Need Winter Attention

Freezing temperatures and heavy snow can wreak havoc on Idaho fences. Taking a few preventative steps now can save you costly repairs later.

Fence Maintenance Tips for the Cold Season

Spot and Repair Fence Issues Early

Look out for structural weaknesses like rot or loose posts. Preventive fixes ensure your fence remains sturdy.

Cleaning: A Key Winter Task

Get rid of mold and build-up to protect your fence. A garden hose is perfect for cleaning vinyl fences. Wood fences need a little extra care when cleaning.

Protect Your Fence with Sealant

Wood fences benefit from a fresh coat of sealant to repel moisture and prevent cracking.

Keep Trees in Check to Shield Your Fence

Tree limbs heavy with snow may harm your fence. Regular pruning keeps your fence safe from tree damage.

Remove Snow to Reduce Pressure

Keep snow levels low to protect your fence's structure. Use a broom to gently remove snow after each storm.
