The sun side grays and opens at the grain. The shade side holds mildew and dries slower after a wash. We look at both, then we clean, dry, and stain. Plants along the line are covered or moved so the stain stays on the wood. That is the job.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a neighborhood asks for a color sample before the fence is coated, we can put stain on a board. You confirm what they asked for. If nobody asked for a sample, we skip that step.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What fence staining Lenoir City TN includes<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The walkthrough covers the run you want done:<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n\n<li>Boards and rails, both faces if both faces are in the scope.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Posts at the soil, and the bottom rail, where rot starts.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Gates and the wood around hinges.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>End grain where the fence steps or where a board was cut to fit.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Anything growing through the pickets that would be stained if we do not move it.<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The wood is cleaned and allowed to dry. Stain on a damp board blotches. Penetrating stain is the usual choice so a later coat has something to soak into. Solid stain hides more weathering and needs cleaner prep. A paint film that is already peeling has to be dealt with first. We will not stain over flakes and call the fence sealed.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Repairs are a separate line. A broken rail or a soft post is not included in the word \u201cstain.\u201d Sherwin-Williams is the product we name on the written estimate when we are specifying the can.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sun-side boards may need more pigment to hold color. Shade-side boards may need more cleaning to get the green off. One fence can have both. The estimate says so instead of promising one look from a single photo of the street face.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The written estimate<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You receive a free written estimate after we see the fence. It lists the run, the faces, the stain, and repairs. No price is printed on this page. No street address is required. Completed staining carries a 3-year written warranty.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Decks are <a href=\"\/deck-staining-in-lenoir-city-tn\/\">deck staining in Lenoir City<\/a>.

Email estimates@castlepainters.com.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A neighbor\u2019s side is included only when you ask and we can reach it. Say that while we are looking, not after the street face is done. Gates that drag get noted. Stain on a rubbing edge wears off immediately. We would rather adjust the scope than coat a problem the hinge is going to sand away. Mulch piled on the bottom rail should be pulled back before the wash so we can see the wood we are being asked to warrant.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sun face, shade face, and the gate<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can have both exposures on one run. The sun face opens at the grain and fades. The shade face holds a dark film at the bottom rail and along the ground line. We wash both, and we do not stain the shade face just because the sun face dried at noon. Dry wood is the requirement. A board that is still cool and dark at the core will blotch.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Posts get checked even when you called about color. A leaning post or a gate that drags is a repair note. Stain on a rubbing edge is gone as soon as the gate cycles. Hinge screws in split wood are the same kind of note. End grain where the fence was cut to follow a slope needs product too, and it is easy to miss if we only look from the street.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tell us if both faces are in, and if a neighbor\u2019s side is actually reachable. Plants growing through the boards have to be pulled back before the wash. Mulch piled against the bottom rail has to be pulled back too, or we cannot see the wood and we should not warranty what we could not inspect. If someone asks you for a sample of the color, we can stain a board. You already know whether anyone asked. We will not add a process you do not have.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Penetrating stain is the usual recommendation because the next coat can soak in. Solid stain is for wood that is too uneven to look honest in a clear tone, and the prep is heavier. Sherwin-Williams is the name we write when the can is specified. Repairs stay off the stain line so the scope stays readable.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"\/knoxville-painting-estimate-knoxville-painters\/\">Get a free estimate<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fence staining Lenoir City TN on the sun face and the gate<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fence staining Lenoir City TN is for privacy and board fences on a home lot. Wash, dry, then stain. The sun face fades and checks. The shade face holds dirt at the bottom and takes longer to dry after a wash. We look at both before we book a single day for the whole run. Posts and the bottom rail are probed. Soft wood is a repair line.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gates swing, so the edges that rub the post have to be coated. A latch that sits in a pocket of bare wood will show in a week. We need the gate to move. If it scrapes the ground, we say so. Both sides are in the scope only when we can stand on both sides. If a neighbor&#x27;s yard is the only access, we ask before we promise it.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">House paint does not belong on these boards. The product is stain, named on the written estimate. The free estimate is the walkthrough.
