Why Solid-Color Stain?
Long-Lasting Protection
Solid-color stains form a thicker film than semi-transparent stains, which extends the life of your wood and reduces maintenance frequency.
High-Quality Products
We specialize in latex-based solid-color stains from trusted brands like Sherwin Williams, Behr, PPG, and Benjamin Moore—known for their durability and color consistency.
Superior UV Protection
With nearly 300 days of sunshine each year in Colorado, solid-color stains offer the best UV protection, keeping your wood looking fresh for longer.
Coverage and Consistency
Solid-color stains can be tinted to almost any color, giving you endless design options. They hide imperfections in older wood, making them a great choice for weathered decks, fences, and siding.

Trim & Siding Staining

Note: We do not currently offer semi-transparent staining services.
Understanding Solid-Color Wood Staining
Unlike paint, solid-color stains penetrate the wood to protect it from the inside out. While prep work is often less extensive than painting, certain steps—like pressure washing and scraping off failing coatings—are still vital for proper adhesion. In some cases, sanding the entire surface may be necessary before applying the solid-color stain.
Our Solid-Color Wood Staining Process
1. Preparation
Surface Cleaning
We begin with pressure washing to remove dirt, debris, and old coatings, preparing the wood for staining.
Minor Repairs & Scraping or Sanding
We scrape off peeling or flaking stain and sand as needed. If any non-structural boards are damaged (rotten, splintered, or cracked), we offer replacement services.
2. Solid-Color Stain Application
Masking & Protection
We cover nearby plants, walkways, and surfaces with drop cloths or plastic to protect your property.
Applying the Stain
We typically brush or roll the stain to work it into the wood’s grain. For certain projects, we may use an airless sprayer followed by back-brushing for even coverage.
Multiple Coats (If Needed)
Some surfaces may require a second coat to achieve the desired color and durability.
3. Inspection & Cleanup
Final Touches
We inspect the finish for consistency and correct any touch-ups as needed.
Cleanup
We remove all tools and materials, leaving your property clean and tidy.

Our team will walk you through the project to ensure you’re completely satisfied with the final result.
