Easy Care & Durable Vinyl Fencing

With their easy maintenance and longevity, vinyl fences are highly recommended and are becoming an increasingly popular substitute for chain link and wood fence solutions. Vinyl fences offer great security, a beautiful design and an affordable cost. Many homeowners in Fort Worth choose vinyl for their new fence because it is nearly five times stronger than wood. You can expect a vinyl fence to last a long time with low maintenance! They do not decompose and are virtually rust free making them ideal for garden beds.

PVC Fencing is Ultraviolet Resistant

The manufacturing process for vinyl fencing varies for different brands, but all are made of high-tech polyvinyl compounds (PVC) that stand up to wear and tear better than most other fence materials. Early forms were essentially PVC piping flattened and extruded to look like lumber. Although the product was durable, PVC would degrade and turn yellow after a short time in the sun. Today’s manufacturers add titanium oxide to the outer layers of the fence posts for better UV resistance.

Flexibility and Tensile Strength

Thanks to a better manufacturing process used today, you can expect your new PVC fence to have five times the tensile strength of wood. PVC is also four times more flexible than wood, meaning it’s very difficult to stretch or tear apart making it a great privacy fence. They are further impervious to many other problems commonly associated with wood fencing, including rot, splintering, and termites.

Lifetime Warranty on Vinyl Fencing

Fence manufacturers are so confident in the durability of PVC, that each one is backed by a lifetime, limited warranty. A warranty can come in handy as a bargaining chip or as extra incentive when showing your DFW home to potential buyers, should the day ever come when you decide to sell.

Great Looks for Your Texas Home

Speaking of design, white PVC fences can also appear to look like painted wood making them a great option for a privacy fence. It can also be difficult to tell any difference between vinyl and composite fencing. Besides the similarity, composite fencing is made from recycled plastics and wood pieces.

Like any plastic, PVC fences can be formed into any shape imaginable making them easier to install than composite because the panels notch together—no nails or screws needed!

Plus, vinyl fences come in an array of colors and patterns that mimic other privacy fence types.

A few tips to maximize the life of your new PVC fence or gate:

  • Adjust the vinyl gate every Spring: re-tamp and realign loose posts, oil the gate hinges, and tighten the screws once a year.
  • Do not let the gate swing in the wind. Keep it secured.
  • Do not stack or mount any objects or other materials near your fence.
  • Avoid using a weed trimmer at the base of the fence.

I called and set up an appointment for a free estimate. Andrew came out very quickly and gave me estimates for a couple options. My gate was in bad shape, and I really just wanted the fence facing the street replaced. Andrew was straightforward with the costs for a cedar fence, vinyl fence, and conc. curb. I ended up with the cedar fence, steel posts, and concrete curb. I bought an Angie's list deal to help offset the costs. The quality of work is great, better than the last fencing contractor I used. It looks like a very robust fence. I only wish I could afford to have them replace all of my fence. Great job, and when I’m ready for more fence replacement, I’ll be calling Buzz. Communication was good, scheduling was prompt, and quality was great.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Do I Clean My PVC Fence?

  • On occasion, you may want to spray your fence using a hose. This will remove grass clippings, dirt and fertilizer chemicals and keep it looking as new as possible.
  • To remove minor stains use soap and water.
  • For removal of major stains, use a plastic safe decrease or a 10:1 water/bleach mixture.

How Will My Vinyl Fence Perform in Hot and Cold Weather Conditions in DFW?

  • Vinyl becomes less flexible in cold weather. However, unless subjected to unusual or extreme impact, it will not break. Your fence is engineered to withstand normal changes in temperature and changing climates in Texas.
  • It is normal for materials to expand and contract with changes in temperature. Flexibility is common and a benefit of a vinyl fence, which allows it to maintain its strength and shape.

Will My Colored Vinyl Fence Fade?

  • Yes, all building products when exposed to sunlight gradually weather over time depending on your climate; this is called normal weathering.

Will My White Vinyl Fence Turn Yellow?

  • Any white product will gradually dull or fade over time, but this should not be noticeable to you.

Will My Vinyl Fence Chalk?

  • Light chalking is a normal occurrence of all vinyl products. Generally, rainfall or the use of a garden hose will remove most chalking.

Can I Paint My Vinyl Fence?
