Fence Staining FAQs in Seattle

Persistent damp, moss, and shade let untreated cedar gray and rot quickly here. A quality stain seals the wood against that moisture, which is why we recommend it for Bellevue and Kirkland fences that take constant exposure.

Yes. Our crews clean and prep the boards first, treating moss and weathered gray before any stain goes on. That prep step is essential in Mountlake Terrace and Lynnwood yards where shade keeps fences damp most of the year.
