Fence Staining for Rice-Military Homeowners
There are two ways to buy fence staining in the Rice-Military area of Houston: the version where the preparation gets skipped to hit a number, and the version that holds up. JM Painting & Remodeling only sells the second one, which is why every Rice-Military quote starts with a walkthrough instead of a guess.

Ask for references and we will point to work near Rice-Military, not across the metro — Harris County is a regular route for our crews, which is also why our scheduling estimates here tend to hold.
The process is deliberately boring. Estimate first, in person and free. Scope second, in writing. Then the fence staining itself, and finally a walk of the finished work with you at your Rice-Military home before the job is called done.

What fence staining costs in Rice-Military
If three Harris County contractors quote your fence staining and the numbers are far apart, these variables are almost always why. Knowing them helps you compare quotes like a pro — including ours.
- Repairs first: loose boards and popped nails get fixed before sealing
- Linear feet and height: an 8-foot privacy fence carries far more surface
- Transparent, semi-transparent or solid stain: coverage and lifespan differ
- One side or both sides, plus posts, rails and the top cap
