From the West Hills to the waterfront, Portland homeowners are choosing vinyl fences for their clean look, low maintenance, and impressive durability. Unlike wood, vinyl never needs staining, resists moisture, and stands up to the city’s rainy winters. CountBricks builds on these advantages by delivering instant, voice-driven estimates and CAD-accurate takeoffs, so you can lock in a budget before the first post is set.
Most local projects fall between $29 and $46 per linear foot, fully installed. CountBricks’ AI engine factors every variable in seconds, including:

• Soil conditions from rocky West Slope yards to soft Willamette silt
• Permit and utility-locate fees for Multnomah, Washington, and Clackamas counties
• Gate hardware, post-caps, and color upgrades
• Labor availability and travel distance to your site

Not all vinyl is created equal. CountBricks sources ASTM-certified fences with UV inhibitors that prevent brittleness after years of northwest sun exposure. For coastal clients facing salt air, we specify marine-grade hardware and stainless fasteners that resist corrosion.

• Insulated sound-barrier panels for busy arterials like SE Powell
• Textured woodgrain finishes to match Craftsman-era architecture
Portland generally waives permits on fences under seven feet, but corner lots and historic districts have special rules. CountBricks auto-flags zoning overlays during blueprint takeoff and inserts any required fees directly into your estimate—no surprises, no re-work.
• Wood: Classic look, but annual sealing and moss removal add long-term cost.
• Chain Link: Budget-friendly, yet offers minimal privacy and limited curb appeal.
• Composite: Strong and stylish, though roughly 25% more expensive than vinyl.
Vinyl hits the sweet spot of affordability and low maintenance, giving homeowners a 65-70% return on resale according to recent CountBricks market studies.
