Process We Follow for Fence Painting/Staining
Initial Fence Inspection
The first step our team takes before painting or staining a wood fence is performing a thorough inspection of existing conditions. This allows us to identify any areas of rot, decay, cracking, splintering, or other damages that should be repaired prior to applying protective treatments.
We want to ensure your fence is structurally sound so our finishes adhere and perform correctly over time. Any compromised areas are noted and repaired according to industry best practices.
Surface Preparation
Once any fence repairs are complete, our team begins the abrasive process of preparing the existing fence surface for new paint or stain. First, we pressure wash the entire length of fencing using commercial equipment with adjustable pressure nozzles. Pressure washing removes built up dirt, mildew and mold growth, pollen or sap, and loose wood fibers for the best painting adhesion.
Next we lightly hand sand rough areas and use chemical solutions as needed to remove remaining stains from water, rust, or wood tannins. Proper surface prep requires patience but is the most important step for achieving quality, long-lasting results from the painting or staining process. The amount of effort going into prep work demonstrates our commitment to not taking shortcuts.
Material Selection & Color Matching
After prepping the wood surface, our team will consult on your desired choice of paint or penetrating stain, taking into consideration the fence type, age, location, amount of daily sunlight, and other factors. We offer custom color-matching services to achieve the perfect complementary shade. Whether you want your fence to dramatically stand out or seamlessly blend in, we can fulfill your aesthetic vision.
Paint is better for achieving opaque, solid colors that completely hide the underlying woodgrain. Stains allow more of the natural grain pattern to show through while tinting the surface and enriching color tones. Clear treatments are also an option if you simply want to protect and seal the fence without altering color. Each product type has its own pros and cons our experts will explain to match your goals.
Paint or Stain Application
With prep work done and products selected, our painting professionals are careful about environmental conditions before applying finishes. We check forecasts to pick optimal weather without extreme heat, rain, wind, or humidity which can negatively impact results. If conditions aren’t ideal we may postpone the job.
When the weather cooperates, our team takes the time to setup drop cloths below all fence sections being treated to protect landscapes, patios, or exterior walls from drips, splatters, and overspray.
We apply product generously using professional grade brushes, rollers, or airless spray equipment according to fence dimensions and layout. Multiple coats may be required depending on selected paint or stain specifications.
Clean up is performed efficiently when the job is done. We remove all tape barriers, collect and properly dispose of any debris, and gather supplies from your property so you aren’t left with a mess after we depart. Our goal is to increase curb appeal and add protection while minimizing headaches or hassles for valued customers.

FAQs About Fence Painting/Staining in Edison, NJ
Why should I paint or stain my wood fence?
Applying protective paint and stain coats shields your wood fence from moisture, mildew, mold, UV rays and other damage over time. It also provides an aesthetic boost that prevents your barrier from looking old, dirty, or unappealing.
How often will my fence need to be repainted or re-stained?
On average, we recommend reapplying fresh paint or stain to your wood fence every 3-5 years. Quality products used properly can last 5+ years but periodic touch ups should still be performed.
Should I repair my fence before or after painting/staining?
Repairs to replace rotten boards, fill cracks/holes, or reinforce structures should happen prior to painting or staining for the best results. Trying to make fixes atop new finishes risks causing scratches or damage.
What precautions do your painters take when working on my fence?
Our team is meticulous about setting up drop cloths beneath fencing and using barriers/tape to prevent product overspray getting onto other surfaces. We also check weather forecasts to pick optimal painting conditions with low humidity, mild temperatures, and no precipitation expected.
How long does a fence painting or staining project take to complete?
Most single family residential homes with standard privacy fencing take 1-2 days depending on fence dimensions. Larger commercial projects with greater surface area to cover will require 2 or more days typically. All timelines depend on cure times required between coats too.
Should I be home during the fence painting process?
Our service does not require anyone to be home while we work. Before starting, we do a walk through to address any questions or concerns. We also take before photos useful for insurance records and lock access gates when leaving to keep your property secured.
Do you offer color matching for paint and stain?
Absolutely! We have access to the latest paint/stain color swatches and coding technology allowing us to analyze and match any custom shade you desire for your wood fence refresh. We can make old fences look brand new.
What kind of prep work is required before painting or staining a fence?
Proper pressure washing, light sanding in needed areas, spot treatment for any mold, mildew or difficult stains, and full drying time before applying paint/stain is key. Taking shortcuts leads to subpar adhesion and quicker failure exposing untreated wood again soon.
Can I paint a fence that was previously stained, or vice versa?
Yes, you can apply paint atop an existing stain or use a stain/sealant on a fence that had been painted. The key is properly preparing the existing surface through pressure washing, sanding, and stripping any chipped or peeling previous layers before applying the new product.
What type of wood sealer do you recommend for cedar fences?
For optimal protection of cedar fencing while allowing its natural reddish-brown color to show through beautifully, we recommend a penetrating oil-based semitransparent stain with UV blockers. Multiple thin coats provide a nice balance of tinting and protection.
