How long Does PVC Fencing Last?
When installing a fence in South Africa, you should always think about how long it will last and how strong it will be before anything else.
In South Florida, there are many things that can damage outdoor building materials, such as acts of God, salty air, storms, insects, and many other things.
For example, even pressure-treated wooden fences can't stand up to most big storms. Vinyl fences, on the other hand, are made to not only withstand more wind but also to prevent total system failure with fail-safes like letting the wind blow out part of the panel to save the PVC fence as a whole but lose a few pieces in the process.
In the end, the choice comes down to what you need (privacy or pool fencing) and other things like your budget and how the outside of your house looks.
Without a doubt, vinyl fences last longer than any other type of fence, especially in South Africa.
What are my choices for a vinyl fence?
Vinyl fences can meet the needs and style preferences of almost everyone. You can choose between vinyl privacy fencing, modern fencing, traditional fencing, semi-private fencing, classic fencing, and post-and-rail fencing.
How to Keep a Vinyl Fence in Good Shape?
Vinyl fences are great because they don't need much upkeep, which is one of their best features. As was already said, you won't have to re-stain or re-paint it in the years to come. A vinyl fence will only need to be cleaned every so often with a garden hose.
If you are worried about mould or dirt growing on the fence, you can clean it with a simple solution of bleach, hot water, and a tablespoon of grease-cutting dish soap. This will clean the fence of any dirt, mould, or germs. Aside from that, you won't have to do much to your vinyl fence.
