Your fence stops looking weathered and gray. The wood gets real protection from rot, insects, and moisture damage that Michigan throws at it year after year.
You get years more life from your fence instead of replacing it. The stain penetrates deep and creates a barrier that actually works against our harsh winters and humid summers.
Your property looks maintained and cared for. In Warren’s competitive housing market, that matters whether you’re staying put or thinking about selling.
Legends Construction has been handling painting projects for over 10 years, with our current company operating for two years in the Warren area. We’re two brothers who focus on quality work and competitive pricing.
We’ve seen what Michigan weather does to fences. We know which stains hold up and which preparation steps you can’t skip. Our goal is simple: do the job right so you call us again.
Warren homeowners trust us because we’re straightforward about what your fence needs and what it’ll cost. No surprises, no shortcuts.
We start by assessing your fence’s condition. Some need cleaning, others need minor repairs before staining. We tell you exactly what’s required upfront.
Surface preparation comes next. We clean off dirt, mildew, and any loose or peeling stain. The wood needs to be ready for the new stain to penetrate properly.
We apply quality exterior stain designed for Michigan’s climate. Our application technique ensures even coverage and proper adhesion. The stain goes on smooth and dries to a consistent finish that protects your fence for years.

Warren’s weather can be unpredictable. We time our work for optimal conditions – no direct sunlight, moderate temperatures, and dry weather. This ensures the stain cures properly and lasts longer.
We use stains specifically chosen for wooden fences in Michigan. These formulations resist moisture, UV damage, and temperature fluctuations that are common in our area. Your fence gets protection that’s built for local conditions, not generic solutions.
Quality fence staining typically lasts 5-7 years in Michigan, depending on your fence’s exposure and the stain quality. South-facing fences get more UV damage and may need attention sooner.
Warren’s freeze-thaw cycles and humid summers test any finish. That’s why we use stains formulated for our climate conditions. Proper surface preparation also extends the life of your staining job significantly.
Late spring through early fall works best for fence staining in Warren. We need temperatures between 50-80°F with low humidity and no rain in the forecast for 24-48 hours.
Michigan’s unpredictable weather means timing matters. We monitor forecasts carefully and schedule your project when conditions are right. Staining in poor weather conditions wastes your money and gives poor results.
Fence staining costs vary based on your fence size, condition, and stain type. Most Warren homeowners spend between $1,200-$2,400 for an average residential fence.
We provide upfront pricing after seeing your fence. Factors like needed repairs, extensive cleaning, or premium stain options affect the final cost. We explain everything so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Yes, we handle minor fence repairs as part of our staining service. Loose boards, small holes, and basic maintenance issues get fixed before staining begins.
Major structural problems need addressing first for the stain to be effective. We’ll identify any issues during our initial assessment and explain what’s needed. Your fence needs to be solid before we can protect it properly.
Semi-transparent acrylic stains work well for most wooden fences in Warren. They penetrate the wood while providing UV protection and moisture resistance that our climate demands.
The best stain depends on your fence type and desired look. Cedar fences need different treatment than pressure-treated pine. We match the stain to your specific fence material and your preferences for appearance.
Most residential fence staining projects take 1-3 days, depending on fence size and condition. Weather delays can extend the timeline since we won’t work in poor conditions.
Proper preparation takes time but ensures lasting results. We’d rather take an extra day to do it right than rush and have your stain fail early. Quality work means your fence stays protected longer.
