What is Vinyl Fence?
Vinyl fence is a type of plastic fencing made with polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It is a popular choice for homeowners and businesses because it is durable and easy to maintain. There are many vinyl fence styles including privacy fences, picket fences, and railings. Vinyl fences can be purchased in a variety of colours and textures.
Why choose Vinyl over Wood?
1. Durability
Vinyl is more durable than wood. It will not rot, splinter, or crack. In addition, vinyl resists fading and is easy to clean. If it is scratched or damaged, vinyl can simply be buffed out without the need for costly repairs. Vinyl fence provides much more durability than a traditional wood fence.
2. Low Maintenance
Wood fences require regular staining and painting to prevent rot and damage. Vinyl, on the other hand, requires very little maintenance. A simple hose down is usually all that’s needed to keep vinyl looking its best. You won’t need to sand, paint, or seal it, and it can easily be hosed off when it gets dirty. But keep in mind, even hosing it down won’t be required very often as the rain that falls from the sky will usually be sufficient in cleaning the fence.
3. Cost-effective
Vinyl is more economical than wood in the long run. While the initial cost of vinyl may be higher than wood, vinyl requires very little maintenance, which means you’ll save money in the long run. You won’t have to worry about continuously paying for paint or stain along with the tools needed to do the job. It’s simply a one time cost and you are set for the long haul.
4. Versatile
Vinyl can be made to look like any type of fence, including wood. You can also find vinyl fences in a variety of colours and textures to suit your taste. They come in so many colours and styles that they have tons of character and can look extremely unique in the space you are installing it. If you’ve seen a yard with PVC or vinyl fence installed, you’d realize that they look very natural and clean, and do not look out of place at all.
5. Safer
Vinyl is a non-toxic material that is safe for both humans and animals. Wood fences can harbour termites and other pests that can be harmful to your family and pets. Not only can these pests be harmful but they can also do a lot of damage to your wood fence. They simply get inside and tear away at the wood material. With a vinyl fence, this does not and will never happen.
