Classic American charm. Decorative front yard fencing with scalloped, dog-ear, or gothic cap styles.
Richmond's humid subtropical climate (85%+ summer humidity, temperature swings from 20°F to 95°F) creates unique challenges for wood fencing. Proper maintenance extends lifespan from 10 years to 20+ years.
Pressure treated wood must cure for 3-6 months before painting. Painting too early traps moisture inside the wood, leading to premature rot—a frequent issue in Richmond's humidity.
Use semi-transparent or solid-color oil-based stains that penetrate the wood rather than form a surface film. These allow the wood to "breathe," releasing trapped moisture while providing UV and water protection.
Allow pressure treated wood to cure. Power wash if needed in fall.
Apply first coat of penetrating stain (spring). Check for loose boards.
Re-stain to maintain water resistance. Inspect and tighten gate hardware.
Heavily wooded areas in Tuckahoe and western Henrico see frequent mold growth on north-facing fences due to limited sun exposure.
Solution: Annual cleaning with oxygen bleach (not chlorine) removes mold without damaging wood fibers. Apply mold-resistant stain additives in shaded areas.
Laser-leveled posts and professional-grade hardware. No sagging gates, no leaning sections.
36-inch post holes with concrete collars resist frost heave and soil shifting common in Richmond clay.
