Built for North Texas Weather
Your Fence & Deck Face the Elements Every Day
North Texas weather can be tough on outdoor wood. Constant exposure to intense sunlight, heat, rain, and moisture can gradually fade, gray, dry out, and deteriorate your fence or deck.
Intense Sun & UV Exposure
Strong Texas sunlight can fade and gray outdoor wood over time, affecting both its appearance and condition.
Heat
Extended periods of heat and changing temperatures can dry out wood and contribute to cracking, warping, and premature aging.
Rain & Moisture
Repeated exposure to rain and moisture can contribute to swelling, deterioration, mold, and mildew when wood is not properly protected.
Year-Round Exposure
Your fence or deck is exposed to changing outdoor conditions throughout the year. Without proper protection, that ongoing exposure can gradually take its toll.
Give Your Wood a Better Defense Against the Weather
Regular exposure takes a toll on outdoor wood. Professional staining helps seal and protect your fence or deck, keeping it better equipped to handle the sun, moisture, and changing conditions throughout the year.

What's Included
Professional Staining From Preparation to Cleanup
A professional staining project involves more than applying stain to the wood. We handle the preparation, cleaning, property protection, staining, and cleanup needed to complete the job properly and leave your fence or deck looking refreshed and protected.
Prepare the Surface
Before staining begins, we make sure the service area is ready and the wood is properly prepared. The surface needs to be clean and dry so it can absorb the stain as intended.
Clean the Wood
Depending on the condition of the wood, we use the appropriate cleaning method to remove mold, mildew, grime, and other buildup. Cleaning prepares the surface for the staining application.
Protect the Surroundings
We take care to protect the areas around your fence or deck during the project. Surrounding surfaces and items that cannot be moved are covered or shielded to the best of our ability.
Apply the Stain
Once the wood is ready, our crew applies the selected stain to the fence or deck. We typically apply 2–3 wet coats, or as much as the wood will take, depending on the surface.
Clean Up the Work Area
After the staining is complete, our crew takes care of the finishing details and cleans up the work area. Stain overspray is cleaned using Dawn dish soap and water, and the crew cleans the fence poles after staining.
Before Your Project Begins
A Little Preparation Helps Everything Go Smoothly
There are a few things we ask homeowners to take care of before our crew arrives. Knowing what to expect helps us access the work area, prepare the wood properly, and keep the project moving efficiently.
Make Sure We Can Get In
You do not have to be home while we work. Just make sure all gates needed to access the service area are unlocked, and that our crew has access to water and power.
Move Personal Items
Please remove furniture, potted plants, personal belongings, and other soft materials from the areas being serviced before the crew arrives.
Trim Back Landscaping
Trim back plants and landscaping around the service area so our crew can properly access the fence or deck.
Clear the Driveway
Cars need to be removed from driveways before the crew begins work.
Keep the Wood Dry
Sprinklers should be turned off at least 24 hours before and after staining. The wood needs to be dry before the stain can be applied.
Keep Pets Away
For the safety of both your pets and our crew, animals need to be kept out of the service area while work is being completed.
Plan Around the Weather
Our crews do not work in the rain, and staining cannot be completed when winds exceed 15 mph. Weather conditions may affect the timing of your project.
Know When to Expect Us
Crew arrival times are estimates rather than exact times. We will call the day before the job to provide a rough estimate of when the crew is expected to arrive.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions About Fence & Deck Staining?
Every fence and deck is different. Here are answers to some of the questions homeowners ask before deciding how to restore and protect their outdoor wood.
How much does fence and deck staining cost?
Every project is different, so pricing depends on the size, condition, and scope of the work. We prefer to review the project before providing an estimate so the price reflects the labor and materials required.
How long does fence and deck staining take?
The timeframe depends on the size and scope of the project. In most cases, the cleaning and staining process takes about two days.
How many coats of stain do you apply to a fence or deck?
We typically apply 2–3 wet coats, or as much as the wood will take. The amount can vary depending on the condition and absorption of the wood.
Do you stain decks as well as fences?
Yes. We stain decks using our combo stain, helping refresh the appearance of the wood while providing protection against outdoor exposure.
Can you stain a fence that has already been painted?
Oil-based stain cannot be applied over paint. Depending on the existing surface, the fence may need to be painted instead, or replaced if an oil-based stain finish is required.
How do I choose the right stain color for my fence or deck?
We can show you photos of stain colors used on fences, decks, and pergolas from previous projects. Seeing the colors on real outdoor wood can make it easier to compare your options.
Do you repair fences before staining?
Yes. We can take care of minor fence repairs as part of the project. If more extensive work is needed, the scope can be discussed as part of the estimate.
