Wood vs. Vinyl Fencing: which is best?
With its lengthy life, lack of maintenance, formidable strength, and beautifully versatile appearance, vinyl
should be your preferred choice for fencing. Although it is more expensive upfront, it provides a better return on investment and won’t require regular (and costly) maintenance like wood fencing. Unless you’re looking to fence a very large area and you also don’t plan to live in your current home very long, we promise that you will be happier with a vinyl fence in the long run.

COST VS VINYL/ WOOD
Vinyl is more expensive than wood at the outset. After your initial investment, however, you won’t have to pay anything. Except in cases of extreme weather, your vinyl fencing should stay secure and beautiful for years and years to come without costly maintenance or repairs. Wood, while cheaper upfront, does require frequent treatments and stains. Because it doesn’t last as long as vinyl, you will probably need to replace the fence at some point if you live in your home for longer than 10-15 years. When considering wood vs vinyl fencing, also consider the size of your project. If your budget is small but your yard is large, you may want to go with wood (unless you plan to live in this home 15 years down the line). But if the area you will be fencing in is small and you can afford the upfront cost, choose vinyl.
