Intense sun/UV: UV-resistant materials essential; fades paint/stain quickly. Low humidity: Wood dries/cracks; needs treatment. Minimal rainfall: Drainage less critical; dust accumulation. Hot summers: Concrete cures fast; early morning work preferred. Cold high desert nights: Some freeze-thaw in northern NM. High winds: Fence posts need extra depth. Occasional hail (east): Impact-resistant roofing in Clovis/Roswell. Recommended fence materials: Vinyl excels in NM sun (UV-resistant, no rot); Cedar withstands dry climate well; Coyote fences blend with landscape (premium option).
