When to Paint or Stain Your Wood Fence
Wondering if it’s time to refresh your fence? Here are some common signs your fence needs a new finish:
The paint or stain is peeling, cracking, or fading
Wood looks gray or weathered
Water no longer beads on the surface (signs of wear)
Visible mold, mildew, or algae growth
You want to change the color or improve curb appeal
You’ve recently installed a new fence and need to seal it
A well-maintained finish doesn’t just improve aesthetics—it prevents moisture infiltration, rot, and premature aging of your fence.
Why Paint or Stain Your Fence?
Protection from the Elements: Chicago’s weather takes a toll on outdoor wood. Proper painting or staining creates a barrier against rain, snow, ice, UV rays, and humidity.
Extended Fence Life: Prevent rot, warping, cracking, and insect damage with a sealed, treated surface that stands up to wear and tear.
Better Appearance: Give your yard a clean, polished look. Choose a finish that complements your home, landscaping, or personal style.
Increased Property Value: A freshly painted or stained fence boosts curb appeal and helps your home stand out—especially if you’re planning to sell.

Need Fence Repairs First? We’ve Got You Covered.
If your fence has broken boards, loose posts, or other damage, we can make those repairs before painting or staining. There’s no point in refinishing a fence that isn’t structurally sound, so we’ll inspect everything first and provide honest recommendations on what needs fixing. We offer:
Post replacement
Board repairs
Gate adjustments
Hardware replacements
Full or partial fence restorations
Our team makes it easy to refresh and protect your fence in one streamlined process.
New Fence Painting & Staining
Installing a new wood fence? Protect your investment from day one with professional finishing. Untreated wood left exposed to the elements can begin to deteriorate in as little as a few months.
We offer painting and staining services for newly installed fences, typically after the wood has cured (usually 4–6 weeks for pressure-treated lumber). We’ll help you select the right product based on wood type, location, and your desired look.
Our Fence Painting & Staining Services
Whether you want a clean, modern look with solid paint or a natural wood finish with a transparent stain, we offer solutions that fit your style, budget, and fence type.
Fence Painting
A painted wood fence provides bold, even coverage and allows you to customize the color to match your home or landscaping. It’s especially effective for older fences with imperfections or color inconsistencies.
Our painting process includes:
Cleaning and surface preparation
Power washing (if needed)
Sanding or scraping as needed
Primer application (for bare or untreated wood)
Two coats of premium exterior fence paint
Full cleanup and inspection
We use only weather-resistant, fade-resistant paints designed to stand up to Chicago’s unpredictable climate.
Fence Staining
If you prefer to showcase the natural beauty of your wood, staining is a great option. Stains come in a variety of tones—from clear sealers to deep, rich wood shades—and help protect against UV rays and moisture while enhancing the grain and texture.
Our staining process includes:
Thorough surface cleaning and prep
Application of high-quality wood stain (oil- or water-based)
Optional sealer for additional protection
Spot touch-ups and final inspection
We recommend staining every 2–3 years to keep your wood fence looking sharp and protected.
