Does wood or composite fencing last longer?

Composite fencing is designed to last longer than wood fencing. Composite fences are worth it if you are looking for a long-lasting alternative to wood fencing, a better looking and more durable alternative to vinyl fencing, or a fence that is easier to install and won't crack like masonry, all while keeping the classic wood look. Although more expensive initially, a composite fence tends to be a less expensive option long-term once you factor in maintenance and the inevitability of replacement.

Trex Fencing, specifically, was designed to improve upon the advantages of composite fencing over wood. While wood fencing begins to depreciate the moment you put it in the ground, Trex composite fencing maintains it's durability and beautiful design for at least 25 years.

Wood fences usually are in dire straights by about 15 years, especially if you have not put the work and money into maintaining it. With virtually no maintenance required other than the occasional wash, Trex composite fencing is a long-term solution to the woes of wood fencing. Visit Trex vs Wood for a more in-depth comparison.
