Placeholder ImageVinyl Fence Cleaning your vinyl fence is a great way to keep your yard looking nice.

The nice part about having a vinyl fence is that they’re super low maintenance. It can be easy to throw a vinyl fence up and hope for the best, but they will eventually require some cleaning. But don’t worry! Cleaning a vinyl fence is easy, and here at Albaugh & Sons, we want to provide you some basic tips for cleaning your dream fence.

When Should You Clean It?

Your vinyl fence may be the best kind of fence for your home, but after a while, you may realize a green or yellowish tinge that creeps over the beautiful, once-perfect white of your vinyl fence. This is a sign that algae has started growing on your fence. Particles of plant matter can stick to the sides of your vinyl fence, and that combined with sunlight and moisture from rain will lead to algae growth. Got algae? It’s time to clean your fence.

How Do You Clean It?

Cleaning a vinyl fence is as easy as tying your shoes. Actually, tying your shoes requires some knowledge of how knots work, but all you need to clean a vinyl fence is a hose, a bucket, and some vinyl cleaning solution. You may want to use a nice big stiff brush as well. It’s pretty simple. Spray down your fence with the hose a bit, then use your brush to apply some of the vinyl cleaning solution. Scrub any problem areas down and bam! Your fence is clean again. Use the hose to spray off any remaining suds and your fence will be like new.

So How Often Should I Do This, Anyway?

Vinyl fence maintenance is pretty easy, but if you’re worried about having to do it often, don’t be. Cleaning your fence should only really be done about once a year, maybe more if you notice your fence continually getting splotchy. You can prevent algae buildup by washing away grass clippings after mowing your lawn and keeping any nearby bushes or trees well-trimmed.

We could not be more pleased with the entire process and outcome of our experience with Albaugh & Sons. From the timely turnaround on coming out to give us an estimate, to the flexibility on adjusting our proposal, and to the quick and professional installation itself. I would highly recommend Albaugh & Sons to anyone in their area of serviceability.

So great to work with. Have had the pleasure of working with both sons who were knowledgeable and courteous. The entire process was easy from estimate to completion of my new deck. Both arrived on time, had my estimate for both deck and basement remodel in a couple of days. Danny, the project manager arrived on time and explained the plans, the work crew were amazing. Old deck demolished and beautiful new composite in its place in less than 2 days. Tiffany, the office manager is prompt in responding to all emails with courteous knowledgeable answers. They make you feel like you are their only customer. Look forward to working with them for my basement remodel. I 100% recommend this company.

I had a beautiful deck built almost 2 years ago. I called yesterday about a few items that have come apart such as the pvc outside corners on the rim/ band board etc. The company was very responsive and ready and eager to help. Because of this, they have made a customer for life! Not only will you get an amazing product, but it appears you get a lifetime of amazing customer service!! 100 out of 5 stars!

We needed a fence as fast as possible for 5 rescue dogs that we took on. Albaugh and Sons was able to provide a great quote and a speedy installation. My wife and I love the new fence. It has literally improved our day to day lives by being able to let the dogs run free in the back. The materials were perfect and high quality. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

I hired Albaugh and Sons to tear out our old deck and replace it with a new composite deck/ screened porch. The front office was a pleasure to deal with and kept my wife and I informed on everything. The crew did an amazing job every step of the way. I was especially impressed with their finish work. The attention to detail was impressive! What I also liked Albaugh and Sons is they had a project manager (Danny) who would occasionally pop over and answer questions and would also keep me updated on progress. I would highly recommend hiring Albaugh and Sons for any of your fence/ deck / home improvement needs.

We are very pleased with the work done by Albaugh and sons. We had them replace our side porch and they did excellent work and built it to our request. Also had them install a three tier rail fence around our property. It is excellent and looks great. We thank Danny and his deck crew and George and his fence crew for their excellent work. I recommend them for any projects you need done. Thank you very much!!
