Great Dane Fence Staining - Austin's Local Fence Builders
Austin, TX 78753
Business Background
Great Dane Fence Staining began in 2011 when founder Larry moved from California to Leander, Texas, and later settled in Hutto with his wife. As a small, locally-owned business, we focus on serving homeowners across central Texas, including Austin, Cedar Park, Georgetown, Round Rock, Leander, Lakeway, Hutto, and Pflugerville. Our specialty is high-quality wood staining for fences, decks, pergolas, garage doors, and shutters using premium oil-based stains like Cabot to withstand the intense Texas sun. We address common local problems such as rusting metal fence hardware by properly priming and sealing around hardware, and we combat sun-faded staining by recommending and applying UV-resistant stains that maintain color longer. Whether you’re near The Domain in Austin or along Lake Travis in Lakeway, we provide free estimates and detailed workmanship to extend the life of your wood structures. Our reputation is built on over a decade of consistent, professional service that prioritizes durability and customer satisfaction.

Question Answers
What’s the difference between staining and painting my fence, and which is better for Austin’s climate?
Staining penetrates the wood to protect from within while allowing the natural grain to show, whereas paint sits on top and can peel over time. For Austin’s hot, humid summers and sudden rains, we recommend oil-based stains like Cabot because they resist UV fading and moisture better than paint. Staining also requires less maintenance—typically a refresh every 3–5 years versus painting every 2–3 years.
Can you repair a deck that has rotten boards and then stain it to match?
Yes. We handle deck repair and replacement as part of our service. We’ll remove and replace any rotted or damaged boards, ensure the structure is sound, and then stain the entire deck—including the new wood—so the color is uniform. We use the same high-quality stain products to protect against sun and rain, giving your deck a like-new appearance.
How do you prevent fence stains from fading so quickly in the Texas sun?
Sun-faded staining is a common issue in Austin. We address it by using premium UV-resistant oil-based stains that contain pigments designed to hold color longer. We also apply a proper number of coats and ensure the wood is clean and dry before staining. For metal hardware, we use rust-inhibiting primers and sealants to prevent rust stains from bleeding through the finish.
