Pre-Listing Fence Refresh for Realtors and Sellers
A gray, peeling or stained fence shows up in every listing photo. We stain and paint fences, gates and decks for sellers across San Diego County.
What a Fence Refresh Covers
- Cleaning or pressure washing to remove dirt, mildew and gray fibers
- Re-staining a wood fence, or painting it for an even color
- Painting iron and metal fences, railings and gates
- Deck and pergola staining when they are in the photos too

Working Around a Listing Date
Tell us your photo and listing dates when you call. We will look at the fence, explain what it needs and give you a written estimate so your seller can decide. Stain and paint need dry weather, so the earlier we see it, the easier it is to fit the schedule.
Choosing a Color for Buyers
Neutral, natural wood tones and classic solid colors tend to suit the most homes. Our fence stain color guide shows common choices. If the home is in an HOA, check the approved colors first.
Pricing
Fence staining runs $7–$10 per linear foot per side and fence painting runs $7–$12 per linear foot per side. Decks, pergolas and gates are quoted by size, height, railings and condition after a free estimate.
