Is composite worth it?
Composite costs more up front than wood or vinyl. What you get for it is the look of real wood with color that holds, boards that won’t warp or splinter, and no staining schedule. If you plan to stay in your home a long time, the lower upkeep closes much of the gap.
What to expect
- Solid board privacy with an aluminum or steel post system, depending on the product line.
- Wood-grain textures in several colors.
- Manufacturer warranties vary by product line. We’ll show you the written warranty for the product you choose.
Local notes for Pottstown & the Perkiomen Valley
- Composite holds up well on shaded, damp lots along the creeks, where wood fences tend to grow mildew.
