Hardwood holds up to the atrocities of nature better than any other timber.Prolonged exposure to Australian conditions can even force hardwood to wear down. Coastal salt, inland heat, heavy rain, etc., hit fence palings made from hardwood really hard. It has gradually developed due to ignoring maintenance and care of fence palings. Due to this lack of maintenance, the palings begin to bow on one side or develop soft patches around the edges.Even H3-rated timber will absorb moisture over time when used for fence palings installation by fence palings suppliers. https://hayters.com.au/paling/
