Fence Installation

You can fence your property without hurting the environment. Smart material choices and proper installation protect Cape Cod's ecosystem while protecting your yard. Cedar is the greenest wood option.

Cedar costs less upfront than vinyl but needs maintenance. You'll stain or seal it every few years. It looks natural. It smells good. It weathers to gray if you skip the maintenance.
