Deck and fence cleaning, staining, and sealing in east DFW
Clean, then stain or seal wood fences, decks, porches, and patios to slow down the Texas sun and rain.

- By appointment
Wood fences and decks in North Texas take a lot: long, hot summers, hard spring storms, and freeze-thaw swings in winter. Bare wood turns gray, cups, and splits faster than sealed wood. A good stain or sealer slows that down and makes the whole yard look newer.
The order matters. We clean the wood first, let it dry, make small repairs like loose boards or popped nails, and then apply stain or sealer to the dry surface. Stain over dirty or wet wood peels and blotches, so we do not rush the dry time.

What affects the cost
- Fence length and height. Fences are priced by linear foot, and a six-foot fence has twice the face of a three-foot one.
- One side or both. Staining both sides of a fence roughly doubles the work, and the neighbor's side needs their OK.
- Wood condition. Gray, weathered wood soaks up more product and may need an extra cleaning step.
- Stain type. Solid stains cover more but cost more; clear sealers cost less but fade faster.
- Plants and access. Shrubs, vines, and tight side yards take more masking and time.
How to prepare
- Trim back plants and vines from the fence or deck if you can.
- Move furniture, planters, and grills off the deck.
- Make sure an outdoor faucet works.
- Pick a stain color, or ask us to bring a few samples.
- Let your neighbor know if we are working on a shared fence.
- Keep sprinklers off the work area for a couple of days before and after.
What is not included
- Building new decks
- Structural deck repairs (joists, beams, footings)
- Painting siding or trim
- Stain work on the neighbor's side without their consent
Texas and DFW notes
Stain and the weather
Most stain makers want the wood dry and temperatures in a set range, with no rain for a day or more after. In North Texas that usually means spring and fall, or early mornings in summer. We schedule around the forecast.
Cedar and pine fences
Most east DFW fences are cedar or pine pickets. Cedar takes semi-transparent stain well. Pine often looks better with a more solid color.
Shared fences
Many fences sit on the property line. You can stain your side; the neighbor's side needs their OK.
Common questions
How long before I can use the deck again?
It depends on the product, but plan on keeping foot traffic off for about a day and furniture off for longer. We give you the times for the product we use.
Do you stain both sides of the fence?
We can, with your neighbor's OK for their side.
How often should I re-stain?
Many fences and decks in Texas need a fresh coat every two to three years, depending on sun and the stain used.
What if it rains?
We reschedule. Stain on damp wood does not hold up.
Can you replace a few bad boards first?
Yes. Small repairs before staining are common. See fence install and repair.
Do you build new decks?
No. We clean, seal, and make small repairs to existing decks.
