Vinyl Fence Care

How Do I Clean My Vinyl Fence?

Most dirt can be washed off with a mild soap and water solution. 

On occasion, you may want to spray your fence with a garden hose. This will remove grass clippings, dirt and fertilizer chemicals and keep it looking as new as possible.

To remove minor stains, use a non-abrasive liquid cleaner.  

For removal of major stains, try one of the following non-toxic cleaning agents: *Simple Green, Mr Clean Magic Eraser, Mineral Spirits, Trichloroethylene, *CLR (Calcium, Lime and Rust Cleaner) or vinegar.  

Follow the manufacturer’s directions. *Note: Goof Off is not recommended to remove stains.  

Vinyl Fence Maintenance Checklist:  

To maximize the life of your fence, address these areas:  

  • Adjust the gate every Spring — As a reminder, gate adjustments and leveling are normal care and maintenance items that the homeowner is responsible for. 
  • Oil the gate hinges and tighten the screws once a year.  
  • Do not let the gate swing in the wind. Keep it secured.  
  • Deter children from swinging on the gate.  
  • Re-tamp and realign the loose posts.
