Installing a new fence on your property can improve curb appeal, security, and privacy. Although there are many materials to choose from, vinyl is one of the most popular among homeowners. Here is a bit more information about vinyl fencing to help you determine if it’s right for your home.

The Advantages of Vinyl Fences

One of the main advantages a vinyl fence offers is durability. Unlike wood fencing, it won’t rot or attract insects. The material is moisture-resistant, so you can expect it to last several decades.

Another reason why many homeowners choose vinyl fencing is its low maintenance requirements. Because the material is strong, it doesn’t have to be re-stained or painted every few years. To keep vinyl looking nice, spray it off with a garden hose periodically.

Vinyl fencing is also available in a wide range of colors, textures, and heights. You can find an option that matches the decor of your home and reflects your unique needs. For example, if you don’t want anyone to look into your yard, you can install a privacy fence with slats that are close together.

How to Maintain Vinyl Fences

To remove surface dirt and dust, spray your vinyl fence with a garden hose about once a month. If you come across dirt stains that are difficult to remove, apply a bleach-based cleaner to a soft cloth and scrub away.

If it has been a while since you’ve washed your vinyl fencing, and it’s covered in dirt, you may need to use a power washer. This machine has more pressure than a garden hose, so it can remove caked-on grime more effectively.
