Your Washington Avenue Coalition Fence Staining Crew

the Washington Avenue Coalition 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.

What the work involves

Our Fence Staining scope in Washington Avenue Coalition

  • Fence washed and allowed to dry to a stainable moisture level
  • Loose boards and popped nails addressed before stain
  • Stain applied to both faces and along the top cap
  • Posts and rails coated, not just pickets

Washington Avenue Coalition is one of the City of Houston's designated super neighborhoods, which means city permitting and inspection rules apply rather than a suburban city's. We confirm what a given scope needs before work starts.

We do not quote fence staining sight unseen. Someone comes out to Washington Avenue Coalition, measures and inspects, and you get a scope that says what is included and what is not before you commit to anything.
