Two of the most popular fencing material choices are wood and vinyl, and for good reasons. They provide a secure perimeter, can be purchased in various styles and finishes, and provide privacy. However, some people would prefer to avoid dealing with the maintenance required by a wood fence.

There are a few things to consider when choosing between wood and vinyl. Of course, many prefer wood’s natural beauty, which might suit your home’s aesthetic best.

Cost- Depending on the type of wood used, upfront costs on a wood fence vary, and vinyl may be the less expensive option.
Maintenance- As long-term expenses go, more maintenance and repairs are expected with a wood fence. Water, sunlight, and weather can damage the wood over time. Also, unless you plan to sand, paint, or stain and seal the wood fence yourself, you’re looking to hire someone periodically to keep it in the best condition.

Have the best of both worlds with Heartwood, Superior Fence & Rail’s custom vinyl fence that provides the look of beautiful wood without the maintenance and issues faced with wood. HeartWood comes in two fantastic color selections; Golden Oak and Red Chestnut.
