What does fence staining actually include?

Your written scope lists it line by line. As a baseline: Fence washed and allowed to dry to a stainable moisture level, and loose boards and popped nails addressed before stain.

Do you take on small fence staining jobs?

Yes. No minimum theatrics: if the Addicks-Park Ten job is worth doing, it is worth doing right, and it gets the same written scope as a full remodel.

Do I need a permit for fence staining in Addicks-Park Ten?

It depends on the scope. Purely cosmetic work usually needs no permit, while anything structural, electrical or plumbing-related often does. We check the rules that apply to your address and handle what is required before work begins.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes: licensed & insured, and we will show you current documentation before Addicks-Park Ten work starts, not after you ask twice.

How long will the work take?

Small Addicks-Park Ten jobs can be a day or two; larger scopes run longer. The written quote states the working days we expect and what could change them.

Can you handle other work while you are here?

That is common. Being on site in Addicks-Park Ten already makes adjacent work cheaper than bringing a crew back out later.

How soon can you start in Addicks-Park Ten?

Fast for a look, honest about the start. Your Addicks-Park Ten walkthrough is usually days away; the work start depends on the season and goes in writing.

Fence Staining: Addicks-Park Ten, Harris County

the Addicks-Park Ten area of Houston sits inside Harris County, and the housing stock changes street to street. We set the fence staining scope after looking at your house rather than off a price sheet, because Sprinkler overspray is a frequent cause of early failure on the lower boards.
