Fence Types & Materials for Lake Tapps
Premium Western Red Cedar
Western Red Cedar is the gold standard for Lake Tapps waterfront properties due to its natural rot resistance and dimensional stability in humid environments. The wood's natural oils provide inherent protection against moisture and decay, essential for fences near the reservoir. We source premium-grade cedar and apply marine-grade treatments for maximum longevity in lakeside conditions.
What We Install in Lake Tapps
- Cedar Privacy Fences: Full privacy with premium moisture-resistant treatments for waterfront durability
- Horizontal Cedar Fencing: View-friendly modern designs preserving lake sight lines while providing privacy
- Hogwire Fence Systems: Unobstructed lake views with durable cedar frames and corrosion-resistant wire panels
Other Fence Materials (Informational Only)
While we specialize in cedar and hogwire installations, homeowners sometimes ask about alternative materials for waterfront properties. Here's what you should know:
- Vinyl Fencing: Low maintenance but can become brittle in temperature fluctuations and may not meet aesthetic standards for lakefront properties (we do not install)
- Composite Fencing: Moisture-resistant but lacks the natural aesthetic preferred in Lake Tapps' residential character (we do not install)
- Aluminum/Steel: Excellent corrosion resistance but limited privacy options for waterfront properties (we do not install standalone metal systems)
Hybrid Aluminum Cedar System
For maximum durability in Lake Tapps' humid lakeside environment, we offer a hybrid system combining black powder-coated aluminum panels with premium cedar frames and pressure-treated posts. This system delivers:
- Aluminum panels impervious to moisture and humidity damage
- Cedar frame aesthetic complementing lakeside homes
- Virtually maintenance-free with marine-grade powder coating
- Ideal for high-exposure waterfront locations with maximum humidity
