At Utah Fencing Company, we offer a variety of materials to install fencing in your home. However, one of the most popular trends we saw in 2021 is that more and more people are gravitating towards vinyl fencing. Vinyl fencing has outpaced many popular fence materials like wood and aluminum since it is a great choice for esthetics and practical reasons.
Let us take a look at some of the reasons why vinyl fencing has become so popular not just in Utah but also the rest of the country.
Durability
One of the major reasons why people prefer to use vinyl fencing is because of its durability. Vinyl is made from a synthetic material, Polyvinyl Chloride or PVC, which can withstand harsh temperature and exposure to the environment. Although the material is very lightweight, it is quite durable.
Vinyl is far less likely to break apart or crack than other fence-building material like wood. Hence, the only time you will need to repair or replace this type of fence is when you actively broke it yourself. Most of the time, vinyl is not subjected to wear and tear and hence it stays tall and strong for a long time.
Cost Effectiveness
Just because it is very strong and durable does not mean that vinyl fencing is very costly. In fact, it is one of the most affordable materials available. This is another major reason why so many people now prefer to use vinyl fences than fences made of other material.
Other popular materials like wood and aluminum are costlier than vinyl fencing. Although wood and aluminum come with their own share of advantages, they also need more maintenance over time. This can increase your money over a large period of time.
Low Maintenance
As we mentioned above, vinyl fences require fewer and further maintenance in between. You will not need to worry about your fence rotting away like wood, or in need of a repaint or a fresh coat of primer. Although you may be required to do some basic cleaning after a storm or a weather event, there is no other type of maintenance required.
Vinyl cannot be infested by insects and is moisture resistant. It also does not corrode which can happen with iron and other materials.
Esthetics
Since vinyl is a synthetic material, it is available in a wide variety of colors. You can select any color you want and use it to make your fence. This can give character to your house as well as increase the curb appeal of your home.
At Utah Fencing Company, we offer you a range of high-quality and cost-effective materials like wood, aluminum, and yes, vinyl for making your fence. If you want to install a fence at your home, reach out to us today at 801-905-8153.
