Deck and Fence Staining
in Vestavia Hills, AL
Vestavia Hills decks get heavy use from families, and the mix of sun-exposed southern yards and shade from mature hardwoods means different sections of the same deck can weather at very different rates. Pressure-treated pine is the most common decking material in the area, with some homeowners opting for composite in newer builds. Staining every 2-3 years keeps the wood protected and prevents the gray, splintered look that comes from neglect.
Typical Cost
$700 - $2,000 for standard decks; $500 - $1,400 for fence staining
Timeline
1-2 days for most properties
Local Tip
If half your deck is in full sun and half is shaded, your painter may need to apply a heavier coat on the sun-exposed sections — UV breaks down stain faster, so building up extra protection there extends the overall life of the application.
