Q: Is it better to stain or seal a cedar fence?

• <div><p>Unlike a sealer, which sits on top of the wood grain, a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. As a result, stains do a better job of protecting the wood from UV damage and rot and last significantly longer. Use a near-translucent stain that won&rsquo;t alter the cedar&rsquo;s natural color for the best results.</p></div>

Q: How long should I wait to seal a new cedar fence?

• <div><p>If your cedar fence is new, don&rsquo;t delay. Unlike treated pine, you don&rsquo;t need to wait months for the wood to dry out for it to accept stain. With cedar, the sooner, the better. Seal cedar within two weeks of installation to prevent the sun from fading its red color.</p></div>

Q: How many coats of stain is too much?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: Do services include repainting after repairs?

• <div><p>Yes, most professionals offer painting services to match the repaired area with existing walls.</p></div>

Q: How do I keep my cedar from graying?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t treat a cedar fence, it will turn from reddish brown to gray over time. You can keep the cedar from graying and retain its attractive, deep red color by sealing your cedar fence with a stain that keeps the wood&rsquo;s oils in and serves as a barrier against the sun&rsquo;s UV rays.</p></div>
