An ornamental iron fence doesn’t require much maintenance to keep it looking as good as new. Simply scrub away rust spots with warm, soapy water and either a toothbrush or fine wire brush. Applying car wax or a similar water-repellant product can protect your wrought iron fence from the elements. Chain link fencing will also require rust protection on an annual basis for the best appearance and longest lifespan. You may clean your chain link fence using a hose and simple dish soap to remove dirt, debris, and other stains. Although you may think growing vines and decorative plants look pretty along your new fence, these may damage your fencing over time. No matter which type of fence you select, you may need to make occasional repairs. Any time you spot signs of damage, you can call the experts at A-1 Fence Inc. for immediate fencing repairs and other fence maintenance!
