Why Stain Your Deck or Fence?
Staining isn’t just about looks—it’s essential for the health and longevity of your wood. Here’s why staining is worth the investment:
🟥 Protection from Weather – Shields wood from rain, sun, and snow damage.
🟥 Prevents Rot & Warping – Helps prevent moisture from penetrating the wood.
🟥 Enhances Natural Beauty – Highlights the grain and texture of the wood.

Our Deck & Fence Staining Process
At Red Rocks Painting, we follow a thorough, proven process to ensure your deck or fence looks great and stands up to the elements for years to come.

Inspection & Consultation
We begin with a full evaluation of your deck or fence to assess:
Wood condition
Presence of old stain or sealant
Damage, mildew, or mold
Color and finish preferences
We’ll discuss your goals, show color options, and provide a free estimate.

Power Washing / Cleaning
A clean surface is key. We:
Power wash to remove dirt, mildew, algae, and old residue
Use wood-safe cleaners when needed
Allow the wood to dry completely (usually 24–48 hours)
If your wood has a heavy buildup of old stain or sealant, we may perform a chemical strip or sanding for proper prep.

Repairs & Prep Work
We inspect and handle any minor repairs:
Replace damaged or rotted boards
Reset popped nails or screws
Lightly sand rough areas or splinters
We also protect nearby surfaces (plants, concrete, siding) with drop cloths or masking tape.

Staining / Sealing Application
Time to protect your wood! Depending on your selected finish, we apply:
Clear sealers for natural wood look
Semi-transparent stains for added color while showing grain
Solid stains for full coverage and a bold look
We use professional brushes, rollers, or sprayers—whichever ensures the best penetration and even coverage.

Once everything is dry and cured:
We inspect the finish with you
