We typically only use Everstrong, Plygem, or Homeland Vinyl. All of those are made right here in the U.S.A. and all use 100% Virgin Vinyl with their own manufacturer warranties.
Is Vinyl more expensive than Wood?
Vinyl is only more expensive than wood on installation day. Once you factor the first stain/paint coat on the wood fence, the wood fence becomes more expensive.

The best product we use to clean and maintain our vinyl fences is Soft Scrub. Get the one with Bleach for White Vinyl and without bleach for Tan and other Colors of Vinyl.
