Wraparound porches and raised decks
Fernandina homes often have wide porches and raised decks with stairs. Floors get a penetrating stain that wears evenly; railings and spindles can be painted to match the trim.

Fence & Deck Painting in Fernandina Beach
What Fernandina Beach property owners should know
Sun and salt gray the wood
Unprotected wood turns gray and rough within a season near the coast. A clean surface and a fresh coat of stain or sealer slow that process.
Picket fences in historic areas
Painted picket fences and gates are part of many older streetscapes. If a fence is part of a historic-district exterior project, include it when you check color approval with the city.

Fence & Deck Painting in Fernandina Beach: FAQ
How often should I re-stain a deck in Fernandina Beach?
It depends on sun exposure and foot traffic. When water stops beading on the wood or the color fades and grays, it is time to clean and re-coat.
Do you sand decks before staining?
We wash the deck, let it dry and sand rough or raised areas before staining so the finish goes on evenly.
Can you paint a fence and stain the deck in the same visit?
Yes. Fences, decks, porches and railings can be done together so the colors and schedule line up.
