Fencing Options for Waterfront Homes on Cape Cod

Salt air destroys most fencing materials. Your waterfront property needs fencing that fights back against Cape Cod's harsh coastal conditions.

Vinyl fencing wins the durability battle hands down. Salt spray bounces right off. No painting, no staining, no rotting. White vinyl stays white. Colored vinyl keeps its color. Wind resistance? Vinyl flexes instead of breaking. You'll get 20-30 years from quality vinyl fencing near the water.

Aluminum fencing runs second for coastal homes. Marine-grade aluminum with powder coating resists salt corrosion. Looks sharp, needs minimal maintenance. Perfect for pool areas and property lines where you want visibility with protection.

Cedar fencing works but demands attention. You'll need to seal it annually near salt water. Skip the maintenance and salt air turns beautiful cedar gray and brittle within three years. Budget for regular upkeep if you choose wood.

Chain link gets eaten alive by salt unless you buy marine-grade galvanized or vinyl-coated versions. Standard chain link rusts fast near water. Spend extra for coastal-rated materials or replace it in five years.

Iron fencing needs serious protection. Powder coating helps but salt finds every tiny chip and starts rust. Beautiful but high-maintenance near water.

Here's what waterfront homeowners forget: wind loads double near open water. Your fence needs deeper posts and stronger construction. Standard installation specs don't work 200 yards from the beach.

At PRO Fence, we've installed hundreds of fences within sight of Cape Cod waters. We know which materials last and which fail. We use deeper post holes, marine-grade hardware, and proper drainage around posts. Your fence will stand up to nor'easters and salt spray because we build it right the first time.
