A high-quality and well-maintained wooden fence can last for up to 20 years. But there are times when wood fences need to get replaced or repaired at least. Now the question is, how will you know that it is time to replace the wood fences?

Well, here are some signs that show it is time to replace the fence instead of trying to repair it:

Rotten Wood

The rotten boards in your fence show you need to replace them as soon as possible. If you delay then other boards will start rotting too.

Leaning

Slightly leaning in just one section of your fence can be repaired only by adjusting or replacing some fence posts. But generalized leaning of the fence is no5rmally a sign of irremediable damage and it requires replacement.

Split Boards & Missing Boards
