Fence Staining

What This Service Involves

A stained fence keeps its color and resists weathering far better than bare or clear-sealed wood, which matters where sun and rain trade off all year. We clean and prepare the boards, then apply a semi-transparent or solid stain that penetrates the grain and locks out water. The pigment shields against UV graying and helps hide the patchy fade that develops on older cedar. With our climate, a stained fence line stays presentable and protected through multiple seasons of rain and moss pressure.
