Fence Contractors Covington WA | Call woodfence

In Covington, the frequent rain and humidity can cause stains to fade or peel over time. We address this by using premium, weather-resistant stains and applying them with proper surface preparation. We also recommend annual inspections and touch-ups to maintain the finish. If your fence is already showing signs of deterioration, we can strip the old stain, treat the wood, and reapply a durable coating that lasts longer in our local conditions.

We primarily use pressure-treated pine and cedar, which are naturally resistant to moisture and insects. To prevent warping, we select straight, kiln-dried boards and install them with proper spacing for expansion. We also apply a protective oil treatment immediately after installation to seal the wood against Covington's damp weather. For existing fences with warped boards, we can replace individual sections and reinforce the structure to prevent future issues.

Yes, we offer fence painting and staining for existing fences. The process typically takes 1 to 3 days, depending on the fence size and condition. We start by cleaning the wood, making any necessary repairs, and then applying a high-quality primer or stain. For best results, we recommend staining rather than painting, as stain penetrates the wood and allows it to breathe, reducing peeling and cracking in Covington's climate.
