"Excellent job. Omar was courteous, considerate and very professional. We were concerned about the plants along the walls but he took extra measures to ensure none of them were damaged. The best decision we have ever made was to go with Green Oak Painting."

"Steve is a consummate professional with impressive knowledge about paint and painting. He explains what he's going to do very clearly and is to easy going to work with. He and his super nice crew did a fantastic job, working diligently to transform our weatherbeaten house at a very reasonable price. They even painted my studio building and porches for free. The house and studio look amazing! Steve fully deserves his five star rating!!!"

"Tom, Sean and the entire team of Pacific Paint & Design are superb both in craft and customer service. Tom came out, gave an explanation of what he believed should be done and why, explained what results we should expect, gave a fair estimate and start time. Everything promised was accomplished and more! We never expected how lovely the job would turn out. Our entry looks better now than it did when it was brand new! We love our new stained pillars and entry. Thanks Guys!"

"Daniel and his team at Soco Painting did a fantastic job on the exterior paint job. They were quick, thorough and communicative including tackling some minor dry rot repair and shutter replacement plus final touch ups. All for a far price. A+ No complaints."

Painting questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to stain a fence depends on your experience and comfort level with the project. Applying stain with an airless sprayer or pump sprayer might get the stain job done faster, but it can be tricky. Paint rollers and stain brushes are slower but simpler for a DIY project.

Manufacturers use a different process and formula for exterior paint versus interior. The exterior formula has to withstand elements like temperature, UV lighting, moisture, wind, and debris. Interior paint doesn’t need to be as tough, only exposed to dust, scratches, dents, scuff marks, and the like.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

Moisture and rot are the largest threat to wooden fences. Stain can help your wood fence last 15 to 20 years, but only if you choose a stain with waterproofing qualities or add a sealant. Oil-based stains create a thicker moisture barrier than water-based stains, though both are mold and mildew resistant. You’ll generally need to re-stain your fence every one to eight years to get full protection.
