When the Water Came Up… Our Fence Stayed Strong
It was one of those storms you hear about in the Pacific Northwest: relentless rain, rising rivers, and saturated ground. Trees were partially underwater, and the water wasn't going to stop anytime soon. For most things on the property, it was a mess. But then came the moment that made us proud: the fence.
Earlier this year, we installed a cedar privacy fence for a homeowner in Whatcom County. Like every project we take on, we focused on doing it right: proper post depth, solid installation, and quality materials. At the time, it looked beautiful. But we knew that looks were only part of the story. What mattered most was whether it would last through real Pacific Northwest weather.
And last month, we got proof. The homeowner sent us a photo of the flood, and there it was: the fence, standing tall. No leaning. No shifting. No movement at all. Just steady, reliable craftsmanship holding strong against nature's test.
Why Proper Fence Installation Matters in the Pacific Northwest
Living here means dealing with unpredictable weather. That's why at JTI Fence, we never cut corners. We know what's below the surface matters just as much as what's above it. Proper installation and quality materials make all the difference when the rain comes, and the ground gives way.
This is more than a fence. It's peace of mind. It's work we can stand behind. Moments like these remind us why we do what we do: building fences that don't just look good, but last.
