Why vinyl
Five reasons it lasts.
01
Lead-free, made from new vinyl
Fresh material, not recycled scrap. The UV inhibitors we use are the difference between a fence that stays white and a fence that yellows in three summers.
02
UV-stabilized through and through
Color is in the material, not painted on. No fading on the south-facing side. No chalk on the cap rails.
03
Aluminum-reinforced bottom rails
Long spans get an aluminum insert inside the bottom rail. The reason your panels won't bow at year ten.
04
Routed posts, not screwed-on brackets
Rails slot directly into the posts. Stronger joints. Cleaner sight lines. No rusting fasteners staining the white.
05
Lifetime warranty
If it cracks, peels, chalks, or yellows, we replace it. Original purchaser, residential vinyl — for as long as you own the property.
Vinyl vs. wood
The math, twenty years out.
Wood is cheaper on day one. Vinyl is cheaper by year ten and every year after that. Here’s the side-by-side most homeowners don’t see until the second time they replace a wood fence.
Gardner vinyl
Buy once.
Lifespan
50+ years in service. Often outlasts the house.
Maintenance
None. Hose it off if it gets dusty.
Insects & rot
Immune. Vinyl doesn't feed termites or carpenter ants.
Color
Cast through. Won't fade, peel, chalk, or yellow.
Warranty
Lifetime, transferable, on residential vinyl.
20-year cost
Sticker price. Zero upkeep. Done.
Pressure-treated wood
Buy again.
Lifespan
7–12 years before you're shopping again.
Maintenance
Stain or seal every 2–3 years. Forever.
Insects & rot
Vulnerable. A wood fence is a buffet.
Color
Re-paint, re-stain, or watch it weather to gray.
Warranty
Typically none past the first year.
20-year cost
Sticker + paint + sealer + replacement.
Cost comparison assumes a 200-foot residential fence in the Upper Midwest. Your number will vary. The math direction won’t.
