Okay, it’s a question we get asked seemingly a million times – “Should I choose vinyl or composite fence materials for my new fence installation?” And who better to ask than us about composite vs vinyl fence than us — Superior Fence & Rail (SFR), the nation’s one true expert in all things fencing.

Let’s Start With The Good News, Both Fence Choices Do Not Require The Upkeep Of Wood

We love wood. The aroma, the textures, the natural colors – we love it all. But if you want a “one and done” new fence solution, you should consider choosing either PVC vinyl or composite Trex from Superior. Here’s why…

If You Are Budget Conscious, Vinyl May Be The Best Fit

Considering costs, vinyl is generally less expensive than composite fencing.  Cost aside, the positives about choosing a vinyl fence include:

• It’s low maintenance, as vinyl requires only occasional washing and never needs painting or staining like wood does.
• It’s an excellent choice to fence in pool areas as it will never absorb water and moisture, and it will never rot or decay.
• When it comes to appearances, vinyl has a sleek, clean look, especially suitable for families who appreciate a more contemporary look.

If You Have A Strong Eco-Consciousness, Trex Composite Is A Game Changer

A genius idea when you think about it, Trex composite fencing marries the best of wood and vinyl. It is made from recycled wood and plastic, and if you didn’t know it wasn’t wood, you would never guess it.

Trex offers the look and texture of wood without the possibility of a splinter, and it will never crack or warp. And its heavier weight proves that it is a good friend to Mother Nature as it holds up well to her occasional wrath when strong weather conditions hit.

As for installation work on our part, our SFR professionals will need to install stronger posts and supports because of its heavier weight.

Composite VS Vinyl Fence, So What’s The Bottom Line?

If you want a cost-effective, pool-friendly, low-maintenance solution, vinyl may be the best fit.

If you’re seeking premium aesthetics, superior durability, and a wood-like appearance, go with Trex composite fencing – especially if the fence is visible from your outdoor living spaces or if you are concerned about a stronger ROI return on investment should you decide to sell your home.
