What Happens to Unprotected Wood in Colorado
At Parker's elevation, UV radiation is significantly stronger than at sea level. Unprotected deck boards and fence pickets fade, dry out, and develop surface cracks within a single season. Moisture from rain and snow seeps into bare wood and accelerates rot, mold, and structural weakening. Without regular staining, a deck that cost thousands to build can deteriorate in just a few years. Proper staining blocks UV damage, repels moisture, and extends the life of your investment.
- High-altitude UV fades and cracks unprotected wood rapidly
- Moisture penetration causes rot, mold, and structural weakening
- Bare wood grays, splinters, and becomes unsafe underfoot
- Regular staining extends deck and fence life by years
Our Deck and Fence Staining Process
We start by inspecting the wood for damage, rot, loose boards, and protruding fasteners. We replace or secure damaged boards and set any popped nails or screws. Next, we clean the entire surface — power washing to remove dirt, mildew, and old finish. We sand rough spots and raised grain to create a smooth, absorbent surface. Then we apply a quality penetrating stain or solid-body stain in your chosen color, working the product into the wood for maximum protection and an even, natural appearance.

- Even application of penetrating or solid-body stain in your chosen color
Stains That Perform in Colorado's Climate
We select stains formulated for high UV exposure, temperature swings, and moisture resistance. Penetrating stains absorb into the wood fiber to protect from within, while solid-body stains provide opaque coverage that hides imperfections and delivers maximum UV protection. We help you choose the right product and opacity based on your wood type, condition, and aesthetic preference — so the finish looks great and performs for years.
- UV-blocking stains formulated for high-altitude sun exposure
- Penetrating and solid-body options matched to wood condition
- Moisture-repellent formulations that resist snow, rain, and ice
- Color and opacity guidance tailored to your preference and wood type

How often should I stain my deck in Colorado?
Most decks in the Parker area benefit from restaining every 2 to 3 years, depending on sun exposure, foot traffic, and the stain product used. South-facing decks with full sun exposure may need attention sooner.
Can you stain a deck that has old stain on it?
Yes. We assess the condition of the existing finish and determine whether it needs to be stripped, sanded, or can be recoated directly. Proper prep of old finishes is essential for a lasting result.
What is the difference between transparent and solid stain?
Transparent stains show the natural wood grain and provide moderate UV protection. Solid stains cover the grain completely, hide imperfections, and offer the most UV and moisture protection. We help you choose based on your wood's condition and the look you prefer.
Do you stain fences as well as decks?
Yes. We stain all types of wood fences — privacy, picket, split-rail, and gates. Fence staining can be done as a standalone project or combined with a deck staining job.
