Progressive Fence & Railing Advises Homeowners How Coastal Conditions Can Affect Their Fences

Egg Harbor Township, NJ -- (SBWire) -- 04/19/2019 --As the go-to fence designers serving Atlantic County, NJ, Progressive Fence & Railing understands that coastal conditions and elements like sand, salt, and sea spray can cause corrosion and rust issues for fencing materials. Now, the company is advising homeowners on how this happens and what they can do to combat it.

Homes along the coast of the Jersey shore are constantly bombarded by elements which can degrade the fencing materials that surround their property. For instance, the continual barrage of sand particles can damage the finish of a fence and wear away the paint.

Sand isn't the only concern for homeowners worried about their fences in coastal areas. The salt ions present in coastal atmospheres also work against fencing materials. Wood and metal structures can be particularly susceptible to damage from salt air. Seaspray features a combination of salt and moisture, both of which can degrade and mar fences across the region.

Progressive Fence & Railing recommends that regardless of the materials they are made from, homeowners should protect their coastal fences by frequently washing or rinsing their fences, and resealing and recoating them regularly to keep corrosive elements away from the core material of the fence.

Additionally, homeowners are advised to choose fencing materials that can resist elements like sand, salt, sun, and seaspray. For the coastal areas along the Jersey shore, vinyl is an excellent option for fencing material, as long as the hardware is made from stainless steel. For individuals who prefer a more natural-looking fence, woods such as cedar and redwood can stand up to the excess moisture of these areas, and can look like new for years to come with regular repainting and re-staining efforts.
