A Fence is an Investment—Protect It!

You finally got your fence installed—congrats! Whether it’s wood, vinyl, chain link, or aluminum, your new fence looks great and adds value to your property. But here’s the thing: like any good investment, it needs a little TLC to keep performing and looking its best.

At Midwest Fence, we’ve seen fences thrive for decades and others fall apart in just a few years—all depending on one thing: maintenance.

1. Extend the Life of Your Fence

A well-maintained fence can last 15–30 years depending on the material. But neglect? That’ll cut its life in half—if not more.

Quick Tips:

• Wood: Reseal or stain every 2–3 years

• Vinyl: Clean off dirt, algae, and mildew a couple times a year

• Metal: Check for rust or loose posts annually

• Chain Link: Inspect ties and coatings regularly

2. Prevent Costly Repairs

That small crack in a post or leaning panel may not seem like a big deal—until it collapses or spreads damage further. A little maintenance now saves major bucks later.

Our rule of thumb? Catch it early. Fix it fast.

3. Maintain Curb Appeal

Your fence is part of your home’s first impression. A faded, leaning, or moldy fence tells the world: “I gave up.”A clean, solid, freshly sealed fence? Now that says pride in your property.

4. Keep Things Safe and Secure

Whether you’re keeping the dog in or strangers out, your fence needs to function. Missing pickets, sagging gates, or rusted hinges can compromise security and even cause injury.
