Step 1
Walk The Fence Line
We cover the full run, identify the materials, and note loose boards, rotted posts, and the shaded sections carrying the worst growth.
On larger lots the fence is often the longest wood surface you own, and it sits exactly where the tree cover is heaviest.
Learn More About This ServiceFencing on Indian Hill properties covers ground. Board and rail along paddocks and drives, privacy fencing around pool areas and gardens, and long property-line runs that disappear into the trees are all common. That is a large amount of wood, and unlike siding it has no roof over it and no protection from either face.
It also sits where the woodland is thickest. Property-line fencing typically runs right through the tree cover, so it stays shaded and damp with poor airflow on both sides. That is why fencing greens up faster than any other surface on the property, and why a fence can look badly weathered while the house still looks well kept.
Method depends on material. Board and rail and older wood need low pressure, because rails are dimensionally thin relative to their span and old wood furs easily. Vinyl holds a surface algae film that releases readily once treated. Either way we clean both faces, since growth left on one side works back through.
Property-line and paddock fencing covers real distance. Cleaning it is a scale job, and pricing it by the section rarely reflects what is actually there.
Rails and older wood fur and gouge under too much pressure. Solution does the cleaning so the pressure does not have to.
Fencing running through tree cover is the greenest surface on most properties, and clearing it changes how the grounds read.
A cleaned and brightened wood fence can be sealed, which slows both the greying and the moisture damage considerably.
Step 1
We cover the full run, identify the materials, and note loose boards, rotted posts, and the shaded sections carrying the worst growth.
Step 2
Beds and plantings along the fence are pre-wet and protected before any cleaning solution is applied.
Step 3
Solution breaks down the algae and organic film, then the fence is washed at a pressure the material can take.
Step 4
Both sides are rinsed and inspected, and we flag boards, rails, or posts that need repair or would benefit from sealing.
I have several hundred feet of fencing. How is that priced?
By what is actually there, which means we walk the full run first. Fence length, material, condition, and access all affect the work, and quoting a long property-line run off a photo is not realistic.
Will cleaning damage board and rail fencing?
Not at the right pressure. Rails span a long distance and are thinner than they look, and old wood furs easily. We clean fencing at far lower pressure than concrete and let the solution do the work.
Why is the fence green when the house is not?
Fencing has no roof over it, sits in the shade of the tree line, and gets poor airflow on both faces. It is almost always the first surface on a property to show growth and the fastest to show it again.
Should the fence be sealed after cleaning?
On wood it is worth it, particularly on runs through heavy tree cover where growth returns quickly. Sealing a clean, brightened fence slows the greying considerably. Vinyl does not need sealing.
