Cape St. Claire, MD
The Premier Pool & Landscape Contractor in Cape St. Claire
Wade Pools & Landscape Design has served Cape St. Claire homeowners since 2001. Founded by Wayne and Shaun Wade, the company brings over 40 years of combined experience to this distinctive waterfront community — a peninsula community where Bay and river access, tight lot configurations, and a strong neighborhood character all shape every design decision.
Cape St. Claire is one of the most unique residential communities in Anne Arundel County — a densely developed waterfront peninsula where lot sizes, setback requirements, and HOA standards all require careful navigation. Wade has worked on properties throughout Cape St. Claire for over two decades and brings practical knowledge of the site conditions, environmental regulations, and design expectations specific to this community.
Whether you’re installing a custom pool on a tight waterfront lot, redesigning your landscape, building an outdoor living space, or maintaining your Cape St. Claire property year-round, Wade brings the expertise and personal service your project requires.

Waterfront Outdoor Design for Cape St. Claire Properties
Cape St. Claire presents design challenges unlike most other Anne Arundel communities. The combination of waterfront exposure, dense development, smaller lot sizes, and strict HOA standards means every outdoor design decision must be precise — maximizing the use of available space while meeting all environmental and community requirements.
Wade understands Critical Area buffer requirements, Chesapeake Bay shoreline regulations, and the Anne Arundel County permit process for waterfront construction. We also know Cape St. Claire’s HOA standards and design sensibilities, and we work within those boundaries to create outdoor spaces that genuinely elevate how you live in this community.
From bay-facing lots and Magothy River frontage to the interior streets of this tight-knit peninsula community, Wade delivers outdoor design and construction that works within Cape St. Claire’s unique constraints and celebrates its exceptional setting.
