Deck and Fence Staining
in Birmingham, AL
Birmingham's variable weather — hot, humid summers and periodic ice in winter — takes a toll on exposed wood. Decks in shaded Southside yards trap moisture and develop graying fast, while fence lines along sunny Crestwood lots bleach out and splinter. A quality penetrating stain applied after proper cleaning restores the wood and extends its life by years.
Typical Cost
$800 - $2,500 for decks; $600 - $1,800 for fence lines
Timeline
1-2 days for most residential decks
Local Tip
Pressure-treated pine decks common in Birmingham neighborhoods should weather for at least 3-6 months before their first stain application to allow the wood to properly accept the product.
