Composite Fence Installation in Glen Ellyn & the Western Suburbs

Wood-look privacy fencing that will not rot, splinter or need staining.

A composite fence gives you the warm look of wood with far less upkeep. Composite boards are made from a blend of wood fibers and plastic, so they resist rot, insects and splintering and never need to be stained.

TOWN Fence & Deck installs composite privacy fences across Glen Ellyn and the western suburbs, most often as clean horizontal panels between black metal posts.

Why Choose a Composite Fence?

  • Low maintenance: no staining or sealing; wash it down once or twice a year.
  • Will not rot or splinter: composite boards hold up to wet ground, sprinklers and snow.
  • Modern look: horizontal boards with slim black posts suit newer homes and updated yards.
  • Full privacy: solid panels block views from neighbors and the street.
  • Consistent color: boards come in wood-tone and gray colors that stay even across the whole fence.

Composite Fence Options

  • Horizontal privacy panels: the most popular style, with boards stacked between metal posts.
  • Colors: tan, brown and gray wood tones; we bring samples to the estimate.
  • Heights: typically up to 6 feet in backyards, depending on your town.
  • Gates: matching walk gates and driveway gates.
  • Property-line fences: one fence that replaces two old ones between neighbors.

Composite usually costs more up front than wood, but you skip the sealing and board replacement that wood needs over time. We price every fence on site because cost depends on length, height and gates.

Composite Fences in the Western Suburbs

Composite works well in HOA neighborhoods and on lots where a neighbor's yard is right on the other side of the fence. Most towns treat it like any other privacy fence, so height and front-yard limits still apply. We check your town's rules, file the permit, and handle everything from removal of the old fence to cleanup.

How a Project Works

  1. Free estimate: Adam or Jill walks your property, measures, and talks through styles, heights and gates.
  2. Written quote: every quote is built for your property. Pricing depends on material, size and the time of year.
  3. Permits and utility locates: we file the permit with your town and have underground lines marked before we dig.
  4. Install: our own crew builds it and cleans up when the job is done.

What Our Customers Say

"TFC installed a 50-foot fence for us last week, removing two old fences, cleaning up the site, and putting in one composite fence to divide our property from the neighbors'... Pricing was fair and competitive."
