Timeless Fencing for the Heart of South Mt. Pleasant
South Mt. Pleasant is defined by its established charm, from the moss-draped oaks of the Old Village to the coastal breezes near Shem Creek. Homeowners here often require fencing that respects the historic and traditional feel of the area while providing modern-day security. DiCarlo Fence understands the nuances of working in South Mt. Pleasant, where lot lines can be unique and the salt air is a constant factor in material longevity.
For many of our clients in this area, Western Red Cedar and Premium Wood Privacy fences are top choices. They offer a natural warmth that blends seamlessly with the lush, mature landscaping found in South Mt. Pleasant. However, because we are so close to the water, we also recommend our powder-coated aluminum fencing, which provides the look of wrought iron without the rust issues caused by the harbor’s salt spray. Our team is committed to preserving the aesthetic integrity of your neighborhood while ensuring your children and pets have a safe, enclosed space to enjoy. Let DiCarlo Fence help you protect your slice of the Lowcountry.
Q: Since the Old Village falls under the BAR, can DiCarlo Fence guarantee my historic-style fence will be approved?
A: Yes. We are highly experienced in working within the strict guidelines of the Old Village Historic District and the Board of Architectural Review (BAR). We specialize in traditional designs—such as Custom Wood Picket Fences and Architectural Wood Privacy—ensuring the proposed height, material, and aesthetic details complement the neighborhood’s character and are guaranteed for BAR compliance.
Q: Our home is close to Shem Creek. How can we ensure our fence lasts against the constant salt air and coastal moisture?
A: Proximity to the harbor makes salt-air corrosion a primary concern. For this area, we recommend either Western Red Cedar for its natural durability against rot or our powder-coated Iron-Style Aluminum, which is specifically designed to resist rust and peeling caused by salt spray, offering a long-lasting, low-maintenance solution.
Q: The lots in South Mt. Pleasant are established with large, mature oak trees. Can you install a fence without damaging the root systems?
A: Absolutely. We understand the importance of preserving the lush, mature landscaping and moss-draped oaks that define this area. Our installation process involves thorough site evaluation to work around established root systems and tight lot lines, utilizing precision setting techniques to ensure your fence is secure without compromising the health of your historic trees.
