13 reasons to choose plastic gates and fencing.
The introduction of uPVC in the late 70’s changed the face of the windows industry forever, with wooden windows today becoming more and more uncommon although we still occasionally install timber windows for customers with period properties, uPVC is ultimately top of our new window enquiries. We believe that like windows, wooden gates and fencing and all the impracticalities that come along with them are a thing if the past and the future is, you guessed it, in plastic. As East Anglia’s best installer of uPVC gates and fencing we are proud to be at the forefront of this emerging trend. We have listed below 13 benefits plastic gates and fencing has over traditional wooden or metal alternatives.
1. Weatherproof
PVC fencing holds up exceptionally well in the most adverse weather conditions, unlike traditional timber fences it is completely waterproof meaning that it doesn’t deteriorate or rot over years of exposure to the Great British weather. The fence posts and gates we use are reinforced with steel to add extra strength and durability.
2. Easy Maintenance
Our plastic fencing is virtually maintenance free, with no painting, treating or sealing required. All our PVC fencing requires is a regular wash down with war soapy to keep it looking great.
3. Environmental Benefits
Because as previously mentioned PVC fencing doesn’t require staining or treating you don’t have to worry about spilling chemicals and damaging the local water table or killing your flowerbed.
4. Economical
Because of it’s long lasting and hard-wearing nature PVC fencing doesn’t have the same frequent replacement or repair costs, this ultimately saves you money over the lifetime of your gates or fencing.
5. Strong
