Vinyl and PVC Fences/Hampton

Vinyl and PVC Fences in Hampton, VA

Low-maintenance vinyl privacy, semi-privacy and picket fencing across Hampton | Installed by a licensed Class A contractor, with the warranty terms stated up front

Vinyl is the one material we install without putting our own guarantee on it. Saying so up front is the reason we are particular about which vinyl goes in.

The detail

The Material We Will Not Guarantee

Any manufacturer's warranty that applies to the product is provided through the supplier and is the supplier's warranty, not ours.

We put that at the top of the page, where it belongs, because it changes what you should be asking us. On a wood fence, the question that matters is how we build it, since the building is what we stand behind. On vinyl, it is which product we are putting in, because the product is the part neither of us can fix with better carpentry.

So the specification does more work here than anywhere else we go. Wall thickness in the posts and rails, reinforcement where a privacy panel meets its post, and a properly engineered gate kit are the factors that most affect how a vinyl fence holds up over time. Thin extrusions and hollow rails are what gave vinyl its reputation, and they are what make a fence look tired inside a few years on an open lot.

Where we do not think a specification will hold on the lot in front of us, we will tell you so and why. Gates are the one exception to the position above: a gate we hang carries a one-year operational guarantee, as it does on any material.

We do not name a brand anywhere on this page. The right answer changes with exposure, height, and how much wind a run gets, and a label does not tell you any of that.

The detail

One Reason to Settle Your District Early

Vinyl is almost always a special order, which makes it the material for which a late question is the hardest to answer. Hampton's BB districts publish a short list of permitted fence materials, and vinyl is not on it. Whether that settles anything at your address is not something we can rule on. What we will do is put the question in front of you in the estimate, while the order is still a conversation rather than a delivery.

What we cover

Where Vinyl Does Well in Hampton

01

Newer subdivisions

A vinyl fence reads as new for a long time, which suits a house that is also new. The thing to watch on a recently built lot is the ground rather than the fence: fill that is still settling will move a rigid post and rail system in ways it will not move a wood one, because vinyl has no give in its joints.

02

Homeowners who are done with maintenance

A vinyl fence asks for washing and nothing else. No sealing, no staining, no sanding a gate that has swollen shut. For some homeowners, that settles it before anything else gets a hearing.

03

Near the water, with a caveat

Vinyl does not rot or corrode, which is a real advantage for a lot exposed to salt air. Hampton is also flat and open, so wind matters, and post spacing and reinforcement are what carry a vinyl privacy run on an exposed lot.

The process

How a Vinyl Job Runs Here

01

District check first, since vinyl is a special order and the material question wants answering before anything is ordered.

02

Measure on site, with particular attention to exposure, because that drives post spacing and whether panels need reinforcement.

03

Written estimate naming the specification as well as the style, with the warranty position set down.

04

The city requires a zoning permit with your survey or plat. You file it; we prepare what goes on it.

05

Material ordered, which typically adds a few days on top of the usual scheduling.

06

Virginia 811, posts two feet deep in concrete, and cure time before panels go on.

Why us

What You Are Hiring Us For on a Vinyl Job

We tell you the warranty position before you order.

We raise the district question first, because vinyl is usually a special order.

We build for fill. On a recently graded lot, a rigid post-and-rail system needs the depth and the cure time that fill demands.

Posts two feet deep in concrete and gates screwed rather than nailed.

FAQ

Questions We Get About Vinyl Here

01Can I put vinyl up in a BB district?+
Ask the city. Vinyl is not among the names on the published list for those districts, and the determination is Hampton's. Because vinyl is a special order, it is the question we put first.
02Why will you not guarantee the vinyl itself?+
Because we did not make it. The manufacturer's warranty passes through the supplier, and that is the one covering the product. The single thing we warrant on a vinyl job is the gate, which carries a one-year operational guarantee.
03Does vinyl handle the wind here?+
It depends entirely on the specification. A privacy panel is a solid surface for wind to push on, so post spacing and reinforcement are what carry it, and those are decisions made for your particular lot.
04Vinyl or wood. How do I decide?+
It usually comes down to what you want to be doing in five years. Vinyl asks nothing of you, and you accept the warranty position above. Wood asks for sealing and gives you something that can be repaired board by board. Both are free to estimate, and we will give you our honest read on your particular lot.
05Will it discolor?+
Grades differ, and the difference is exactly why we are particular about which product goes in. The comparison is on our main vinyl page.
06How long until you can start?+
Same-day response and a quick visit to measure. Vinyl is often a special order, so allow a few days for material on top of the usual three to four weeks from signed estimate and deposit.
