Here are some tips for cleaning a vinyl fence.

There is something timeless and beautiful about a white picket fence, and it is what many people daydream about when they think about homeownership. However, a white fence needs to be maintained appropriately to avoid unattractive stains that detract from the overall appearance of your fence. Thankfully, cleaning your white vinyl fence is very easy with these tips. 

Try Pressure Washing

A vinyl fence is surprisingly durable, so pressure washing is an excellent way to clean off the surface and ensure no stains are left behind. Pressure washing uses water to remove dirt, debris, and other stains. However, using the correct setting on your pressure washer, it is critical to make sure that you don’t do any damage to the pickets themselves. Make sure that you read through the manual ahead of time. 

Manually Scrub the Fence

You can purchase a cleaner designed for vinyl use or mix some dish soap with warm water to clean your vinyl fence. Always use a soft brush to avoid scratching the surface of the boards. Once you have scrubbed the length of the fence, wash everything away with a hose. Starting the process with a quick rinse is a good idea to loosen any stuck-on debris. 

Prevent Staining

When you have a white vinyl fence, you are at a slightly elevated risk of staining. The best way to avoid staining in the short and long term is to clean your fence regularly. Every couple of months, rinse off the fence with your hose. If your white vinyl fence is located next to vegetation that has flowers or fruit that stain, you may want to hose it off more regularly during times of the year when the staining is likely to occur.
