Stained wood fence

Why fence staining is essential

Without regular fence treatment, wood fences can lose their color, weaken, and deteriorate. Staining not only protects your investment but also increases curb appeal and ensures your fence remains a valuable part of your property. A professional-grade stain and sealant ensures the wood is fortified against water, sun, heat, and debris. When properly applied, fence stains can protect your fence from the elements for up to 4 years before needing to be re-applied.

Fence Staining FAQs

It protects wood from weather damage, prevents rot, enhances color, and extends the life of your fence.

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.

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

Yes, we offer a variety of stain colors and finishes, from transparent to solid, to match your style preferences.

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