A New Privacy Fence in Thompson Station, Stained Before It Could Gray
A new vertical-board privacy fence with framed posts and post caps, around the backyard of a new-construction home in Thompson Station. It was stained a warm cedar tone while the wood was still fresh, before sun and rain could start turning it gray.
Fence Staining That Shows Its Work
Three frames show a run half stained, raw wood right beside the new color, with the base of the fence protected by cardboard and tape so the stain stays on the boards and off the lawn. Two close frames show the grain where the boards meet the grass. The pails on the lawn are Cabot Australian Timber Oil, a penetrating oil finish. The homeowner had hired someone else first; the review below explains why we were the second call.
