Stained Cedar Wood Fence

Why fence staining is important

Unlike the man-made fence materials we offer, wood is susceptible to wear and tear of all kinds—like cracking, warping, splitting, developing mold or rot, and whatever a strong wind will blow into it. Improperly preserved wood won’t last long in Hampton Roads and Virginia Beach, but properly stained and sealed wood can protect your fence for up to four years before you’ll need to have it reapplied. Why wait any longer to call your local fence installation company, Top Rail Fence, to get your fence beautifully stained.

Benefits of staining & sealing your fence

If you’re replacing your old fence with a new one, or if you’re having a wood fence installed for the first time, make sure you have the Top Rail Fence team apply stain and sealant. Here’s why:

Color retention

With top-quality products and exceptional craftsmanship, the Top Rail Fence team will help you preserve your fence’s color long after your neighbors’ wood fences have begun to fade or rot.

Climate protection

The stains we use are engineered to penetrate the wood, giving it added protection against mildew, water, and sun damage from constant exposure to the elements.

Low maintenance

If your stained and sealed fence ever gets dirty, all you have to do to clean it up is wipe it with a damp cloth or a mild soap-and-water solution. No elbow grease is required!

Unique touches

Worried about your wood fence looking like everyone else’s? We offer many different stain styles and colors to help you stand out from the crowd and complement your property.

Fence Staining FAQs

View More

Staining adds color to the wood while highlighting its natural grain. Staining also protects against UV rays. Sealing protects the wood from moisture and weathering by creating a waterproof barrier. Oftentimes a stain solution has a sealant formula as well. We ensure that every fence is both stained and sealed as part of our service.

The fence staining cost varies based on fence size, material, and the type of stain. We provide free estimates before starting.

After installation, a wood fence typically needs anywhere from 4-6 months of curing time before being stained. This allows the wood to dry out from its original pressure treatment to absorb the stain effectively. The time it takes for the wood to dry out depends on the material. For example, Cedar fences can be stained sooner than pressure-treated fences. A great way to tell if your fence is ready for stain is to sprinkle water on the wood; if it beads up, it needs more time to dry out. If the water is readily absorbed, the fence is ready for stain.

Most fence stains have a lifespan of approximately 4 years. However, the longevity of your stain depends on the severity of weather in your area. Regions with high winds, lots of rain, or brutal sun may require re-staining sooner

Absolutely. Staining creates a barrier against UV rays, rain, and mold, helping your fence stay strong and beautiful for years.
