Deck Staining Services Built for the Outdoors
The Sacramento foothills and the greater Placer County region put outdoor wood through a lot. UV exposure, wet winters, and dry summers all accelerate cracking, graying, and rot. Our deck staining services start with proper surface preparation, including cleaning, degreasing, and light sanding, so the stain bonds deeply and lasts. We treat all varieties of hardwood and composite decking, and we match the stain to your wood type and your goals, whether that's a natural clear finish or a rich, pigmented tone that brings out the grain.
Restoration First, Replacement Last
Wood Deck Restoration That Saves You Money
Before any stain goes on, we assess your deck and fence for wood rot, moisture damage, and structural soft spots. Where others might recommend a full tear-out, our team uses Bondo and epoxy fillers to restore damaged boards and fascia to a solid, lasting condition. Dennis has repaired wood so thoroughly that you can hit it with a hammer and it's solid as rock. This restoration-first approach has saved clients thousands in unnecessary replacement costs, and it means your staining project starts on a surface that's actually ready to hold a finish long-term.

Your Questions, Answered
Fence and Deck Staining FAQs
How do you prepare a deck or fence before staining?
Preparation is the most important part of any staining job. We start by thoroughly cleaning the surface to remove dirt, mildew, and old failing finish. From there we degrease the wood and do any necessary light sanding to open the grain and help the stain absorb evenly. If we find soft spots, rot, or damaged boards during this stage, we address them using Bondo or epoxy fillers before any product goes on. Skipping prep is the number one reason stain peels or fades early, so we never rush this step regardless of project size.How long does a typical fence or deck staining project take?
Most standard fence and deck staining projects are completed within a 3 to 5 day window. For smaller jobs or properties with straightforward access, our two-person crew can often finish faster. We've completed full 2,200 square foot residential projects in 2 to 3 days. Timelines vary based on surface condition, the amount of prep work needed, drying time between coats, and overall square footage. We give you a realistic schedule upfront so you can plan around the project without surprises.What types of wood do you work with for staining projects?
We work with all varieties of hardwood and common decking materials including cedar, redwood, pine, Douglas fir, and pressure-treated lumber. Each wood type has different porosity and grain characteristics, so we select the stain and application method based on what the material actually needs. We also assess the wood's current condition before recommending a finish, since older or more weathered wood may require a different product than newer, cleaner lumber. Our goal is a finish that bonds well and holds up to the specific conditions of your property.Can you repair rotted or damaged boards as part of the staining project?
Yes. We take a restoration-first approach, which means we assess the full condition of your deck or fence before we stain anything. Where we find rot or structural softness, we use Bondo and epoxy fillers to restore the board to a solid state rather than immediately recommending replacement. This approach can save homeowners thousands of dollars. Dennis repairs damaged wood so thoroughly that the finished surface can take a hammer strike and stay solid. Once the repairs are done and cured, the stain goes on over a surface that's genuinely ready for it.Which areas do you serve for fence and deck staining work?

For larger commercial contracts, we've also traveled as far as Redding and Long Beach. If you're unsure whether your property falls within our service area, just reach out and we'll confirm quickly. We're based in Auburn and deeply familiar with the environmental conditions across the Sierra foothills, which directly informs how we approach exterior wood staining in this region.What does a fence or deck staining project typically cost?
Most full exterior wood staining projects range from $5,500 to $8,200, with quotes typically starting in the $7,000 to $8,200 range for complete jobs. We offer flexible proposal formats including labor-only, materials-separate, or fully bundled options depending on your budget and preferences. We're also known for coming in under competitor quotes while finishing the job faster. Every estimate is specific to your project's size, condition, and scope, so we encourage you to reach out for an accurate number rather than relying on a general figure.Is Pro Show Painting licensed to perform staining work in California?
