PVC Fencing

PVC fencing has become one of the most popular choices for Lynn homeowners who want beautiful fencing without constant maintenance. PVC stands for polyvinyl chloride, a durable plastic material that is molded into fence panels, posts, and rails. The result looks similar to painted wood but eliminates the need for scraping, painting, or sealing ever again.

What makes PVC different from regular vinyl fencing is the quality of materials and manufacturing. True PVC fencing uses virgin vinyl compounds with added strengthening agents and UV inhibitors. This creates fencing that resists cracking, fading, and yellowing far better than cheaper vinyl alternatives. The color goes all the way through the material, so minor scratches and scuffs are virtually invisible.

Here in Lynn, we see PVC fencing excel in our challenging climate. The material handles temperature swings from hot, humid summers to cold, icy winters without becoming brittle or warping. Unlike wood that absorbs moisture and rots, PVC sheds water naturally. This means no mold, mildew, or decay problems even in shaded areas or near sprinklers.

PVC fencing comes in numerous styles from classic picket fences to tall privacy panels. You can choose smooth finishes or wood-grain textures that mimic real lumber. The color options have expanded beyond basic white to include tan, gray, and even darker tones that suit different architectural styles. When you invest in quality PVC fencing, you get the look you want with none of the work.

PVC fencing offers remarkable versatility in design. You can achieve nearly any look you want, from traditional to contemporary. Here are the most popular styles we install for Lynn homeowners:

Privacy Fencing

Solid PVC privacy panels create complete seclusion for your backyard. The panels typically stand 6 feet tall and feature tongue-and-groove construction that eliminates gaps. You can add decorative lattice tops for visual interest while maintaining privacy below. These fences work perfectly for properties near busy streets or close neighbors.

Picket Fencing

Classic PVC picket fences define property boundaries with charm and elegance. Choose from traditional pointed pickets, rounded tops, or decorative Gothic styles. The spacing between pickets can be adjusted for your preferences. Picket fences work beautifully for front yards, gardens, and creating welcoming curb appeal.

Semi-Privacy Fencing

These designs balance privacy with airflow and visibility. Shadowbox styles alternate boards on opposite sides of the rails, creating an attractive pattern visible from both sides. Board-on-board construction overlaps vertical boards slightly for partial privacy. These options suit side yards and properties where total seclusion is not necessary.

Ranch Rail Fencing

PVC post-and-rail fencing captures the rustic appeal of traditional ranch fencing without maintenance. Available in 2-rail, 3-rail, or 4-rail configurations. Perfect for larger properties, defining boundaries without blocking views, or creating paddock areas.

Custom Combinations

Many homeowners combine styles for maximum effect. A privacy fence in the backyard provides seclusion, while a picket fence in front maintains an open, friendly appearance. Matching gates and decorative post caps complete the look. We help you design combinations that enhance your property and meet your specific needs. Our experience with residential fencing projects throughout Lynn means we understand what works best for different property types and neighborhood styles.

Understanding how PVC stacks up against other fencing materials helps you make the right choice for your property. Each material has its place, but PVC offers the best combination of beauty, durability, and low maintenance for most homeowners.

PVC vs Wood Fencing

Wood fencing costs less initially but requires regular maintenance including staining or painting every 2-3 years. Wood rots when exposed to moisture, attracts insects, and can warp or split over time. PVC provides similar aesthetics without any maintenance and lasts twice as long. Over the lifetime of your fence, PVC saves both time and money compared to wood.

PVC vs Chain Link Fencing

Chain link wins on cost but loses on aesthetics and privacy. You see right through chain link, and it offers minimal noise reduction. PVC fencing creates privacy, blocks noise, and dramatically enhances property value. For most residential applications, the benefits of PVC far outweigh the cost difference.

PVC vs Aluminum Fencing

Aluminum fencing provides a decorative option that requires little maintenance, similar to PVC. However, aluminum does not provide privacy and costs comparable to or more than PVC for many styles. Choose aluminum for ornamental applications where you want visibility. Choose PVC when you need privacy and versatility in design.

Making Your Decision

The right choice depends on your priorities. If you value low maintenance, long life, and privacy, PVC is hard to beat. If you prefer the natural look of real wood and do not mind maintenance, traditional wood fencing might suit you better. We help you evaluate all options honestly based on your budget, property characteristics, and how you use your outdoor space. Our goal is helping you choose fencing that you will love for years, not just making a sale.
