Fencing in this area has its own set of challenges. Lots are often narrow, property lines run tight against the neighbors, many homes are more than a century old, and every winter brings frost, snow and road salt. We plan each fence around those conditions, from how deep the posts go to which side faces the street, so it stays straight, looks right and holds up for years.

Each material solves a different problem. Use this comparison as a starting point, and we will help you narrow it down during your free estimate.
| Material | Best For | Maintenance | Typical Lifespan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wood (cedar or pressure-treated) | Privacy, natural look, classic New England homes | Stain or seal every few years | 15 to 20 years |
| Vinyl (PVC) | Privacy with little upkeep | Occasional washing | 20 to 30 years |
| Aluminum | Front yards, pools, open views | Very low | 30+ years |
| Chain link | Pets, sports areas, commercial security | Very low | 15 to 25 years |
Wood Fences
Wood is the traditional choice across Greater Boston, from cedar privacy fences behind Colonials to white picket fences in front of Capes. Cedar resists rot and insects naturally and weathers to a soft gray, while pressure-treated pine costs less and takes stain well. Wood needs periodic sealing, but nothing matches its look.
Vinyl Fences
Vinyl gives you the clean lines of a painted fence without the painting. Quality vinyl panels include UV inhibitors and hold up to freeze-thaw cycles without rotting or splintering. It is a popular pick for backyard privacy and for homeowners who want to spend weekends on something other than fence maintenance.
Aluminum Fences
Aluminum looks like wrought iron, weighs far less and does not rust. A powder-coated finish stands up to winter road salt, which makes it a strong option for front yards, corner lots and pool enclosures where you want security without blocking the view.
Chain Link Fences
Chain link is the most practical way to enclose a large area on a budget. Galvanized wire works well for utility and commercial use, and black vinyl-coated chain link blends into the landscape, which makes it a good fit for dog runs, backyards and school or park perimeters.
