How we handle fence staining in Santa Ana
Assess
We look at the wood, the existing stain, sun exposure and any damaged pickets or posts.
Clean
Dirt, mildew and graying are washed off the fence and gates.
Prep
Peeling old finish is sanded or stripped back, and plants, walls and nearby surfaces are masked or covered.
Stain
Stain goes onto pickets, rails, posts and gates, brushed or sprayed depending on the fence, with even coverage.
Review
We walk the fence with you, check the sides we agreed on, and explain how to care for it.

Older homes often have porch columns, rafter tails and front doors that look best with a stain that shows the grain.

Best timing

A local tip
On older homes with detailed trim, ask for sample patches of two or three colors so you can compare them in your own light.
Fence Staining in Santa Ana: common questions
Can you paint a historic home in Santa Ana?
Yes, with extra attention to prep and color. Homes in historic districts may have guidelines for exterior colors, so check with the city first. Homes built before 1978 may contain lead-based paint, so tell us your home's age.
Do you need to protect my plants?
Yes. We cover or move what we can, and we tell you beforehand what to expect around landscaping.
Can I stain a brand-new fence right away?
New wood is often wet or has a surface that blocks stain. We check moisture and tell you whether to wait.
Should I stain or paint my fence?
Stain keeps a wood fence looking like wood and fades gradually. Paint covers the grain and can peel as the boards expand and contract. We'll recommend what suits your fence.
