Fence Staining for San Leon Homeowners
Most fence staining problems we get called out to in San Leon trace back to preparation rather than product. Unsealed fence wood in this climate greys and cups within a couple of seasons. That is where our time goes on a Galveston County job, and it is why the finish is still holding up years later.
