If your fence has been recently installed and starting to show signs of mold growth already. We will clean the fence before staining. These are fences that are typically no more than 1 year to 2 years old. Transparent Oil Based Stains will highlight the beauty of the wood and also offer great protection against mother nature.
Typically after cleaning these fences it is best to do a brightening treatment if you want to do a transparent stain. If using a Semi-transparent Oil Base Stain the brightening treatment is not needed.
If your fence was previously stained by yourself or another professional: we will do an inspection first. Some instances we may be able to just do a fresh coat to bring the beauty back to life. Other cases we may have to apply a Wood Cleaner/Stripper to remove the old stain before applying a new Oil Base Stain or Solid Stain if preferred.
A common problem we see here in Oklahoma is moving into a new house and finding out your fence needs to be stained. We have been staining fences, decks, pergolas and exterior wood trim since 2013. So, we have seen just about it all. If you have any questions please give us a call to have Nick come visit with you about your project.

This is typically a fence less than 1 year old and already showing signs of mold and mildew. Yes, we will always recommend cleaning a fence that has this growth on it. Even if the fence is less than a year old. If not it could cause the color to darken more than intended and also trap the mold inside the wood.
