"Andrew and his team were punctual, respectful, and worked tirelessly to ensure that the job was completed to the highest standard. They went above and beyond to ensure that all details were attended to, including minor repairs and touch-ups that were necessary prior to painting. The quality of the workmanship is outstanding, and I have received countless compliments from my neighbors and passersby. The team took great care in ensuring that the surrounding areas were protected during the painting process, and left my property clean and tidy upon completion. Andrew himself was a pleasure to work with. He was communicative, responsive to any questions or concerns, and provided valuable insights and recommendations to ensure that I was completely satisfied with the end result. I highly recommend Andrew and Color Splash Painting for any painting needs. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and commitment to customer satisfaction are truly unmatched. Thank you Andrew and your team for a job well done!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Staining a wood fence isn’t guaranteed to prevent warping, but it can help. Plus, it’s a beginner-friendly DIY project that you can finish in a few days. If you want to try it, you’ll start by stripping it of any old stain or paint, then sanding it. After that, you’ll clean it and spot-treat any mold or mildew. When it’s dry, you can apply the stain.

On most untreated wood fences, there is no need to sand before treating. You typically only need to sand if there’s an old coat of paint or stain on your fence. If you do need to sand off a previous paint or protective coating (like an old stain or sealant), use medium-grit sandpaper.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

Painting or staining protects fences from environmental damage, enhances durability, and improves curb appeal with a fresh, customized look.
