Vinyl fencing is becoming a popular alternative to traditional wood pickets or rails. Though it costs more at the outset, vinyl fencing pays for itself because it lasts longer and requires almost no maintenance. Installing any fence is a two-person job that requires multiple days to complete. Concrete that holds the posts needs time to harden before the installation can be finished. Take plenty of time at the beginning to plan the location of the fence — you will avoid costly mistakes that might be difficult to undo. Lowe's is happy to provide this information as a service to you.

I've done it for a family in the ward. It was a short fence (maybe 40-50 feet total). We had 2 people doing most of the work, and it took about 4 hours. If you are digging your post holes by hand, it will be harder.

You might want to be a little more careful with the measuring than we were.

If you are alone then it will take long. There are different types of fence boards available that are easier to put in now. Ask around!
