Q: How do you make a wooden fence look nice?

• <div><p>There are several ways to make a wooden fence more visually appealing and keep it that way for years to come.</p><ul><li><p>Treat the fence with a wood sealant to protect it against the elements. It&rsquo;s recommended to reseal a fence every two to three years, but if you live in a harsh climate, you may want to do it more frequently than that.</p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-restore-faded-wood-fence.htm">Restore the fence</a> if it&rsquo;s old, corroding, or fading. That includes cleaning it and making small repairs where needed.</p></li><li><p>Paint the fence in a color that you like, whether that&rsquo;s a simple white or more vibrant option. Fences usually need to be repainted every one to three years.</p></li><li><p>Decorate the fence with planters, string lights, birdhouses, mirrors, shutters, and more. </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Should you paint your old wood fence?

• <div><p>You can paint an old wooden fence, but make sure first to do a deep clean (ideally with a pressure washer) and inspect the fence for any existing damage. Painting over dirt and debris will cause your paint to peel. Once you&rsquo;ve cleaned and repaired any minor issues, use a primer and high-quality satin paint.</p></div>

Q: How long does wood stain last?

• <div><p>Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it&rsquo;s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.</p></div>

Q: How long does exterior paint last?

• <div><p>Many types of exterior paint last <b>five to 10 years</b>. Factors that determine exterior paint&rsquo;s lifespan include the type of paint, type of siding, climate, and the quality of the primer and paint. For example, wood siding will require a fresh coat of paint more frequently than paint on brick.</p></div>

Q: What is the best way to apply stain?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around <b>four hours</b> between coats.</p></div>
