Deck & Fence Staining in Eugene, Oregon

Protect and restore your outdoor wood surfaces

Oregon's rainfall and UV exposure are hard on wood decks and fences. Untreated or poorly maintained wood absorbs moisture, cracks, grays, and eventually rots. Servicemen Painting & Contracting applies professional stains and sealers that restore color and provide lasting protection.

Stain vs. Paint for Decks

Decks and fences are better served by penetrating stains than by surface paints in most cases. Stains soak into wood fibers and allow moisture to pass through, which helps prevent bubbling and peeling. Solid stains provide more color coverage while preserving some of the wood flexibility.

Our Deck & Fence Process

We start with a thorough cleaning to remove old gray surface wood, mold, and loose material. Any soft or damaged boards are flagged. We sand rough areas before applying stain in even, controlled coats for a uniform finish that extends the life of the wood.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I stain my deck?

Most decks benefit from re-staining every two to three years in Oregon's climate. Higher-traffic decks or those in direct sun may need attention sooner.

Can you stain over old paint on a deck?

Penetrating stains cannot be applied over existing paint because the old coating must be stripped first. Solid stain can often be applied over existing solid stain with proper prep.
