Why Choose PVC Fencing?
The chemicals that makeup PVC are the key to how well it works. Polyvinyl chloride, which is what PVC stands for, is a type of plastic that is great for use outdoors and underground. In the past, PVC could change colour and break down over time, but today's PVC fencing has additives that stop these things from happening. That's one reason why it's being used more and more to fence in horses and for other uses in rural areas where strong, durable fencing is needed. You can imagine how much work it would take to keep an old-style rural fence in good shape. On rural properties, PVC fence posts and rails get rid of almost all the need for maintenance and repair.
PVC fencing is also strong and doesn't catch fire, which is both good things. Modern PVC fencing is up to 5 times stronger than wood fencing, has a flashpoint of over 480 degrees Celsius, and is called "self-extinguishing."
If PVC fencing has so many benefits that it is used even on a large scale in rural areas, it makes sense to use it at home as well. Whether you need PVC fencing for balustrades, picket fencing, security fencing, deck railing, pool fencing, or anything else, there's a style and colour that will work for you.
Here are the four best reasons to use a PVC fence:
Low-Maintenance: PVC fences are great for people who don't think of themselves as handy. They are 5 times stronger than wood and don't need much care. PVC fences work well in all climates and never need to be painted.
Affordable: PVC fences are cheaper than wood and iron fences, and you'll save even more money because they don't need as much maintenance as other fences.
Non-Toxic: PVC is a green material that doesn't harm the environment because it isn't treated with chemicals. A fact that is slowly getting more attention is that it can also be recycled.
Easy to set up: The process of setting up is quick and easy. To get the job done, call a pro like a team at Heritage Fence.
