Protect the wood. Keep the character.
Premier Fence offers staining for suitable cedar, redwood, and other wood fencing in the Springfield area. Stain can help slow moisture and sun damage while preserving or restoring the rich appearance that makes a custom wood fence stand out.
Good staining begins before the first coat is applied. We inspect the wood, existing finish, moisture level, weathering, and nearby surfaces to determine what preparation is needed. New wood may need time to dry; older wood may need cleaning before it can accept a finish evenly.

Fence Staining FAQs
How soon should a new cedar fence be stained?
The wood needs to be dry enough to accept stain properly. Timing varies with the material, season, and recent weather.
Can you stain a gray, weathered fence?
Often, yes, if the wood is sound. Cleaning or additional preparation may be needed before staining.
How long does fence stain last?
Performance depends on the product, preparation, sun, moisture, color, and exposure. Periodic inspection is the best way to know when maintenance is needed.
