Climate Considerations in Delaware

Coastal humidity: Wood rots faster; vinyl ideal. Salt air (entire state): Metal corrosion; coatings critical. Nor'easters: Wind-rated materials needed. Hurricane risk: Storm-resistant fencing/roofing. Mild winters, hot summers: Year-round work possible. Sandy soil (Sussex): Deeper post setting required. Recommended fence materials: Vinyl is top choice in DE (humidity + salt resistance); Aluminum outperforms steel (no rust); Cedar resists humidity, but needs maintenance.
