Deck Builder — Wellesley, MA

Fence Staining in Wellesley, MA

Washed and dried first, then a penetrating stain that holds through the freeze-thaw cycle.

How this plays out in Wellesley

Decks, porches and exterior stairs in Wellesley take the full freeze-thaw cycle. The older Wellesley neighbourhoods are heavily wooded. Shaded elevations hold moisture and grow mildew, and washing plus full dry time is not optional. Structure gets checked before any finish goes down.

How we do it

Washed and dried first, then a penetrating stain that holds through the freeze-thaw cycle.

Both faces, and the end grain at the post tops where water enters first. A fence stained on the street side only fails from the back within two seasons.

What usually fails

Staining a fence that's still damp from the wash. It's the single most common reason fence finishes fail early.
