- For timber fences, it is advisable to paint or stain your new fence. This will extend the lifespan of your timber fence significantly. Timber does shrink over time and will turn grey.
- Timber is a natural product and shrinks and swells with the weather. When storing timber materials before using them, i.e. fixing them together, it is important to keep it off the ground and out of the sun. When receiving your materials strapped, leave them strapped until you use them. You can weigh it down on the ends, to prevent buckling before using the materials.
- Aluminium powdercoated fences need regular maintenance to keep it looking good. A regular wash (every 3-6 months) with some mild detergent and warm water will freshen it up and clean the contaminent off like salt, dust etc. When in a harsh environment (saltwater pool, ocean, industrial area) then a more frequent wash is necessary. See our Powdercoat page about maintenance and care of powder coated materials, visit: www.fencingfactory.com.au/powder-coating
- Note: Bore water will discolour the coating and in severe cases, cause oxidation of aluminium fencing or rusting on steel fencing. The severity of this depends on the acidity of the bore water and the amount of contact on the metal/coating. Our products are NOT warranted against deterioration, rusting or oxidation due to being in contact with bore water.
You can arrange with your neighbour to split the total costs of the dividing fence, however The Fencing Factory only invoices one person and the final payment is the sole responsibility of the person that signed the contract and the quote is addressed to.
