For the majority of my life I have sold and installed fences. Whether it was a cedar privacy fence for someone's backyard or a chain link highway fence to an ornamental pool fence. I have seen and dealt with all sorts of fencing issues.
Myself, I love cedar privacy fences they come in so many styles that are appealing but they also come with many issues. First of all they lose their unique color within a year or two. Yes you can stain them but this can be somewhat a painful process. Most cedar fences will last between 10-15 years depending on your weather conditions. In that time I'm sure you will have some minor issues from sagging gates, picket replacement. Some of the major issues that could occur are; rotting fence posts, blown down sections, gate replacement. If your willing to put the time into your fence then I would go with a cedar fence if not then lets talk about maintenance-free vinyl fencing.
Vinyl Fences
When I sell a fence to a customer. One of my first questions to them is, "what their looking for and", "Do you want to replace this fence down the road?" Most answer, well you already know the answer to my 2nd question. My solution is vinyl fencing. It is becoming more popular throughout the United States as you have already seen. It comes in various shapes, sizes, and colors. The materials will never rot, chip, crack, peel. They can withstand winds of up to 110mph, they won't fade in color, resistant to insects and they are made for easy DIY installations and are usually backed with a lifetime warranty. Now, the initial cost is higher than a traditional cedar fence but in the long run it's going to save you money in repair and maintenance costs. If this is your last house then you can't go wrong with a vinyl fence.
