Most of our pergola & gazebo staining calls in Park City come from homes with a small city of 1960s-to-1980s ranches near Waukegan. That means small pergolas and screens, which changes the prep more than the stain.
Much of Park City is in central Lake County, where mature trees are the main issue: shade keeps wood damp and grows mildew on the north side. Cleaning is not optional here, and we brighten after so the tone comes back.
A pergola sprayed from the ground looks fine from the ground. Look up from the patio underneath and every rafter has a dry stripe where the spray did not reach, and every end grain is unsealed. We get on ladders and stain the tops, sides and ends of every member. It takes longer. It is also why the finish lasts.
