| Size | Square feet of decking, linear feet of fence, and the railing, spindles and stairs that take hand-brushing time. |
|---|---|
| Condition | A gray, bare deck is a clean-and-stain. A peeling solid stain is a strip-sand-stain and costs more. |
| Stain type | Solid stains and two-coat systems take longer than a single-coat penetrating oil. |
| Access | Second-story decks, decks over patios, and fences on a neighbor's side add protection and setup. |
| Repairs | Board replacement and re-fastening are quoted separately so you can see the numbers. |
Because it would be wrong half the time. A 300-square-foot deck that is bare and gray is a clean-and-stain. The same deck with three coats of peeling solid stain is a two-day strip and sand before a drop of stain goes on. A fence quote depends on height, style and whether both sides are done. A number without seeing the wood is a guess, and we would rather send you a real one.
Every quote itemizes cleaning, repairs and staining so you can see what you are paying for and drop what you do not want.
