Deck and Fence Staining
in Fultondale, AL
Many Fultondale decks and fences are relatively new — built during the community's rebuilding period — and are now reaching the age where their first protective stain application is due. Pressure-treated lumber needs to weather for several months before it will accept stain, so homes rebuilt 2-4 years ago are in the ideal window. Getting this first stain application right establishes the baseline for easier, less expensive maintenance coats in the years ahead.
Typical Cost
$600 - $1,600 for decks; $400 - $1,100 for fences
Timeline
1-2 days for most properties
Local Tip
For brand-new pressure-treated wood, do the splash test before staining — sprinkle water on the wood surface and watch if it absorbs within 30 seconds. If it beads, the chemical treatment hasn't weathered out enough for stain to penetrate.
