To extend the life of your timber fence, regularly inspect and maintain it by cleaning off dirt, mildew and moss. Apply a protective sealant, stain or paint to shield the wood from moisture and UV damage. Ensure posts are set in concrete and away from constant soil contact to prevent rot. Repair any damage promptly, such as replacing broken boards or tightening loose screws. Proper care and maintenance significantly prolong the lifespan of your timber fence.

For coastal areas, hardwoods like ironbark, spotted gum or treated pine are recommended due to their natural resistance to moisture, salt and termites. Coastal conditions can be harsh on timber, so choosing a wood type that withstands high humidity and salty air is essential. Applying a protective finish, such as marine-grade paint or sealant, can further protect the timber from environmental damage. Regular maintenance will also help prevent rot and extend the life of coastal timber fencing.

Prevent warping by ensuring your timber fence is properly installed with adequately spaced posts and securely fastened boards. Use treated timber to resist moisture absorption, which is a common cause of warping. Applying a sealant or stain helps protect the wood from water and UV damage, which can lead to warping and splitting. Regular maintenance, including resealing every few years, keeps the timber stable and reduces the likelihood of warping over time.
