"Sheila was terrific, navigating well between my husband and myself. She did her best to make sure I'd be happy with the color picked out by sending along a visual of my choice and the one next to it from the paint chip in a sample room visualization. She overestimated the project time, but readily adjusted the invoice appropriately. Our old home is full of painting projects, and I wouldn't hesitate to ask her back."

Small projects paintings or stainings FAQs

It's best to stain your new fence after the wood has fully dried, which usually takes about six to eight weeks after installation. Waiting ensures the stain adheres properly, giving your fence lasting protection. Staining a fence usually takes three to five days. You'll start by cleaning the wood and letting it dry for at least 24 hours. After applying the stain, you'll need to wait 12 to 24 hours for each coat to dry.

Paint lasts longer than stain—about five to 10 years compared to stain's one to eight years. Painting requires more prep work and multiple coats, but offers a durable, long-lasting finish. Staining is less labor-intensive and allows the wood's natural beauty to show, but may need more frequent reapplication. Consider your maintenance preferences and desired look when choosing between the two.

Yes, you should stain both sides of your fence. Staining both sides provides complete protection from weather, moisture, and pests, extending your fence's lifespan and keeping it looking good. If your fence borders a neighbor’s property, communicate with them about splitting the cost of staining both sides of the fence or work out an agreement that satisfies both parties.
