Completed Result
The completed fence renovation restored multiple deteriorated and damaged sections of the existing wood privacy fence while preserving usable portions of the original structure. Broken boards and unstable sections were removed, new pressure-treated fence posts were installed and secured in concrete, damaged framing was repaired, and new wood boards were added where needed.
After the repair and replacement work was completed, the entire fence was painted in a coordinated brown exterior finish. Painting both the existing and newly installed sections helped create a more consistent appearance throughout the property while refreshing the overall look of the backyard, side-yard, and driveway fence areas.
The finished project improved the fence’s stability, privacy, and appearance while extending the useful life of the existing fencing system.
