About fence painting & staining

A well-stained fence is a 10-year decision; a poorly stained fence is a 2-year do-over. The difference is prep — clean wood, dry wood, and the right stain for the species.

Our fence crews handle cedar, pine, redwood, and pressure-treated lumber. We pressure-wash, brighten, and spray or brush-apply premium stain that protects the wood from UV and moisture.

What's included

  • Pressure-wash with fence-safe cleaner
  • Brighten and neutralize to restore color
  • Replace popped fasteners; tighten loose boards (extra for board replacement)
  • Mask adjacent landscaping, hardscape, and structures
  • Spray-apply with back-brush to drive stain into grain
  • Treat both sides where access allows
  • Final walkthrough and warranty

Our process

  1. 1

    Free in-home estimate

    A senior estimator walks the project with you, measures the scope, and returns an itemized fixed-price quote — usually within 24 hours.

  2. 2

    Surface prep

    We patch, sand, caulk, and prime every surface to the manufacturer's spec. Prep is what makes a finish last — we don't cut it short.

  3. 3

    Premium application

    Two finish coats of Sherwin-Williams Emerald or Benjamin Moore Aura, applied by master painters using sprayers, brushes, and rollers matched to each surface.

  4. 4

    Walkthrough & warranty

    You inspect the finished work alongside the crew lead. Anything you flag gets touched up on the spot — then your 10-year workmanship warranty kicks in.

Why homeowners choose us

Spray + back-brush

We spray for speed and coverage, then back-brush every board to drive stain into the grain. This is what makes a fence stain last.

Right stain for your wood

Cedar and redwood get different stains than pine or PT lumber. We spec the right product for what you have.

Property-line coordination

We can talk to your neighbor about staining their side too — usually for a small additional cost.

Frequently asked questions

+Should I do both sides?

If you can access the back side, yes — single-sided stain has half the service life. We coordinate with neighbors when access requires it.

+Can you stain a brand-new fence?

Pressure-treated lumber needs 3–6 months to dry before stain. Cedar and redwood can usually be stained within 2–4 weeks.

+What about gates and posts?

Gates, posts, and lattice are included in the linear-foot pricing. We treat the whole fence as one finish.

+What's included in the warranty?

Every job carries our 10-year workmanship warranty. If the finish peels, blisters, or cracks within ten years, we return and re-coat the affected area at no charge.

+What paints do you use?

Sherwin-Williams Emerald and Benjamin Moore Aura by default. Zero-VOC alternatives (Natura, Harmony) are available at no upcharge.

+Are you licensed and insured?

Yes — fully licensed in every state we serve, with $2M general liability and workers' comp on every crew.
