Why Vinyl Fencing?

Vinyl fencing is about choosing a fence that stays put, clean, and out of your weekend plans. No staining. No warping. No slow decline after a few Virginia summers.

At Dubon, we install vinyl fencing for homeowners who want long-term dependability without constant upkeep:

  • Clean, consistent lines that hold their shape through heat, humidity, and winter freezes
  • Set deep and reinforced properly so panels don’t shift, lean, or loosen over time
  • Built with professional-grade vinyl and hardware designed to last

Vinyl Fence Styles We Install

Vinyl isn’t one look; it’s a system. And the style you choose changes how your yard feels and functions.

Full Privacy Vinyl Fencing

Designed for complete visual separation. Best for backyards, patios, and side yards where quiet and clear boundaries matter most.

3- or 4-Board Vinyl Ranch Fencing

Creates clean, open boundaries without enclosure. Ideal for larger lots, acreage, and properties that need definition without blocking views.

Semi-Privacy Vinyl Fencing

Offers partial screening while allowing airflow. A smart choice for shared property lines where openness and separation both matter.

Vinyl Straight Picket Fencing

Delivers classic curb appeal with a clean profile. Well-suited for front yards and HOA-regulated neighborhoods that value consistency.

Lattice-Top Vinyl Fencing

Adds height and detail without feeling closed in. Popular around patios, gardens, and spaces that benefit from light visual screening.

Pool-Safe & Code-Compliant Vinyl Fencing

Built to meet local pool safety codes. Includes proper spacing and self-closing, self-latching gates for secure access control.

Customization Options

Every vinyl fence we install is tailored to your property, including:

  • Height options selected to match your privacy needs and local zoning rules
  • Layout adjustments for slopes, grade changes, and uneven ground
  • Style details like post caps, color selections, and decorative accents where appropriate
  • Gate options including walk gates, double-drive gates, and reinforced hardware

Materials & Structural Standards

Vinyl fencing is a structural system that has to stay reliable through heat, humidity, and seasonal ground movement. It only performs as well as what’s under it, and that’s where we focus first.

Feature What We Do (Technical Detail) How It Benefits You Why It Matters Long-Term
Vinyl Wall Thickness Use professional-grade vinyl with thicker wall profiles (not retail panels) Panels stay rigid, straight, and resistant to flexing Prevents sagging, waviness, and premature failure over time
UV Inhibitors UV stabilizers blended directly into the vinyl material Reduces fading, chalking, and discoloration Fence keeps its color through years of Virginia sun
Post Depth & Footings Set posts roughly ⅓ of total post length in concrete, below the active soil layer Shallow posts are the #1 cause of leaning fences in Virginia clay Structural stability through seasonal freeze-thaw and rain
Reinforced Posts Reinforced vinyl posts, especially at gates and corners Posts don’t twist or loosen under daily use Gates stay aligned and operate smoothly long after install
Post Depth & Footings Posts set to frost-line depth or ~⅓ of post length, anchored in concrete Fence resists leaning, shifting, and ground movement Handles freeze-thaw cycles and soil expansion without movement
Concrete Anchoring High-strength concrete used at every post Creates a stable, immovable foundation Fence remains square as seasons change
Fasteners & Hardware Hot-dipped galvanized or stainless steel fasteners No rust bleed or staining on vinyl surfaces Eliminates corrosion-related failures
Gate Construction Steel-reinforced gate frames with heavy-duty hinges Gates don’t sag or drag with daily opening Extends the life of the most-used part of the fence
Utility Coordination 811 utility marking completed before digging Avoids damage to buried lines and services Prevents costly repairs and project delays
Boundary Awareness Property lines verified when close or unclear Fence goes exactly where it should Avoids disputes, corrections, or legal issues later

Vinyl Fence Maintenance & Longevity Expectations

Vinyl fencing doesn’t ask for much, but it still benefits from the right kind of care over time.

We recommend:

  • Occasional rinsing with a hose to remove pollen, dust, and surface buildup
  • Mild soap and water if needed—no harsh cleaners or pressure washing required
  • Periodic checks on gates, hinges, and latches, since those see the most daily use


In Central Virginia conditions, a properly installed vinyl fence can deliver decades of dependable service with minimal upkeep—especially when it’s built right from the start.
