Pergola & Gazebo Staining Wadsworth, IL

Pergola & gazebo staining for Wadsworth homes

Most of our pergola & gazebo staining calls in Wadsworth come from homes with rural and semi-rural lots with larger homes. That means long fence runs on big lots, which changes the prep more than the stain.

Wadsworth sits along the Des Plaines River, and the tree cover that comes with it keeps decks and fences damp longer in the morning. We schedule washes early in the week so the wood has time to dry before stain goes on.

We stain cedar and pressure-treated pergolas, gazebos, arbors, privacy screens, trellises and pool-house structures across Lake County. We match the tone to your deck or fence if they were done together, or pick a tone that suits the house if the pergola stands alone.

How the job goes in Wadsworth

1. Inspect the structureWe check for loose rafters, split caps and any rot at post bases, and note what needs re-fastening.
2. CleanPercarbonate cleaner and a gentle rinse, with the patio and any furniture below protected.
3. Dry and light sandTwo or three dry days, then a hand-sand of rough edges and any raised grain on the rafters.
