Professional Residential Fencing in Nantucket, MA 2554 - A Team Carpentry

Nantucket’s coastal environment means constant moisture, salt spray, and sandy soil that holds water. Wood posts can rot within a few years if not properly treated. A Team Carpentry uses pressure-treated lumber and gravel footings to improve drainage and prevent moisture buildup, extending your fence’s life.

Look for soft or splintered wood, rusted nails or screws, leaning posts, and cracked rails. On Nantucket, you might also notice white salt residue on hardware. If you see any of these, it’s time for a professional inspection. A Team Carpentry can assess the damage and recommend repair or replacement before it becomes unsafe.

We start by removing old, rotted posts and installing new ones with concrete footings that extend below the frost line. We use cedar or composite materials for durability, plus stainless steel screws to resist rust. For decks, we add proper flashing and ventilation. Our goal is to give you a structure that stands up to wind, salt, and moisture for years.
