Fence Staining Minneapolis MN: Why Stain Your Fence?

Like all things made out of wood, in order to maintain its structural stability and attractive design, staining a fence is a must. Living in Minnesota means that anything exposed outside can fall victim to cold, wet winters and hot, humid summers. At Home Drywall & Painting, we offer fence staining services that will slow down the aging process of your fence and also keep it looking nice! We prep, wash, and then stain the fence to get it looking good as new!

Stain Options

Times have changed in the world of staining. Our fence staining professionals can now offer a variety of fence staining services that weren’t on the market a few years ago! Some of our options include:

• Coloring the Stain: Depending on the type of wood you use, you may want to use a stain with a little color to it! If your fence is made with high quality wood that is easy on the eyes, adding color to the stain may only cheapen the look. However, if your fence is made with lower quality wood, the color of the stain becomes the focal point! This will help to diminish the look of the lower quality grain and wood surface.
• Transparency with Sealants: Some homeowners are not looking to change the look at all and are only looking for a good sealant. Our fence staining professionals can apply transparent stains that only act as a water repellant and do not penetrate any of the wood. However, using penetrating oils has its upsides as it helps the wood last longer. In this case, semi-transparent stains (Alkyd stains) are also available.
• Solid Color Stains: While this looks great on weathered wood, as it gets rid of the grain entirely, it has a tendency to chip and wear. However, using solid color stains can complement the trim of the home and add real dimension to the property.
