Composite fence installation Richmond Hill, ONThere’s a category of fencing that seems to match or outdo the current fencing material offerings, and that's composite fencing. You might have heard of some popular manufacturers of composite fences and decks, including Trex, Fiberon, TimberTech and Simtek, each with their own unique features such as percentage of recycled materials.
Composite fencing is essentially a unique combination of recycled plastic and wood, creating an extra durable, low maintenance and beautifully finished residential or commercial barrier. Because part of it is made from recycled PVC, composite planks avoid one of the common downfalls of the popular wood fencing, one of which is rotting of the material due to bugs and pests eating away at the wood. Now, there are exceptions because certain wooden fencing naturally resists pests, or have been treated chemically to reduce this phenomenon (i.e. pressure-treated fencing). With composite, however, insect rotting the fencing material is rarely or ever a concern. Around the 1990s, vinyl or PVC fencing was a popular alternative to wood. Although there are no issues with rotting, there would sometimes be issues with lowered resistance to climate changes or extreme temperatures, and therefore were more prone to break. Composite is denser and stronger than vinyl, so it minimizes the chances of breakage due to inclement weather. |
Furthermore, because composite contains some level of recycled wood, there is some seepage of stain or colour in the material, therefore creating a beautiful look that mimics the look of wood somewhat (at least moreso than vinyl).
