Fence Staining
Fence Staining is important as it helps to protect it from rain, storms, hail, and the sun’s Ultra Violet (UV) Rays that cause the rotting and splintering of materials. Staining a fence depends on the quality, age, style and condition of the existing wood.
Staining a fence is a go-to method for the majority of fence finishes. There are a number of types of stains for fences like transparent, semi-transparent, and solid-colored stains. What’s the difference between staining vs painting?
Stains penetrate deep into the wood, while paint only protects the outer layer. Stain enhances the beauty and effectiveness of the wood.
Most of the time it’s better to stain a fence rather than paint it. Stain will fade over time and must be reapplied, but it doesn’t peel or crack, thus re-staining requires less preparation in the future than re-painting. Since stain doesn’t peel or crack you simply have to power wash the fence to have a clean and prepared surface for fresh stain.

Deck Staining
Deck staining prevents the growth of molds and mildew which ultimately results in wood rotting and decaying. This will make your deck look unappealing, and dirty and will eventually compromise the structural integrity of your deck.
Therefore, staining your deck is quite crucial. Compared to painting, staining is economically cheaper and also allows the wood to have a shiny lustrous finish. Over time, decks are exposed directly to the harsh elements of nature, especially with our Missouri weather!
A fresh coat of stain can help you to restore your deck back to its original beauty.
