Trusted Deck Staining and Fence Staining in Austin, TX
Wood care and staining done right by Medrano's Painting.Your deck looks gray and dry, or your fence has faded from years in the Texas sun. Good deck staining and fence staining bring the wood back to life and help it last longer. Medrano's Painting has stained wood for Austin homeowners since 2014, and we are licensed and insured. We clean the wood, prep it, and apply stain that soaks in and protects.
Why Our Wood Staining Work Lasts Longer
Stain only holds up when the wood is clean and dry first. We wash the surface, let it dry, and fix rough spots before any stain goes on. We pick a stain that fits your wood type and how much sun it gets. That care is why our deck and fence staining stays even and lasts through Austin's hot, wet seasons.
What Our Wood Staining Service Covers
We handle wood staining for homes and businesses across the Austin area, including:
- Deck staining and deck refinishing for worn boards
- Wood fence staining, including cedar fence staining
- Staining wood beams, posts, and porch rails
- Exterior trim staining and exterior door staining
- Cleaning and prep before any stain is applied
- Help choosing deck staining vs painting for your project
If your wood is dirty or covered in mildew, our pressure washing service can prep it before we stain. We also offer exterior painting when you want a painted finish instead of stain. If prep turns up soft or rotted trim, posts, or beams, our wood rot repair service can fix the damage before we stain.
Wood Staining Built for Austin Weather
Austin wood takes a beating. Strong UV rays fade fence boards, summer heat dries out decks, and sudden rain soaks the grain. Many older Austin yards have cedar fences that turn gray fast without care. Our deck staining and fence staining in Austin uses finishes made to handle that heat, sun, and moisture so your wood stays protected longer.
Signs Your Deck or Fence Needs Staining
Wood gives clear hints when it is time for a fresh coat of stain. Watch for these signs:
- A gray wood fence that has lost its color
- Weathered deck boards that feel dry or rough
- Peeling deck stain or blotchy old finish
- A faded wood fence that looks washed out
- Water that soaks in instead of beading on top

I needed to have the concrete floor and counter in my small (220 sq ft) south Austin Airbnb to be replaced/renovated with a new stain of roughly the same color as the existing one, that had started to wear away, chipped sealer, etc. Rather than go back to the previous contractor, I decided to call Antonio Medrano; he had left his card listing the types of jobs he does, and saying he did free estimates, in my mailbox. So, I asked him to swing by to take a look at my project so I could meet him and see if he would be interested. He came by the next day, checked out the job, said he could do it, and recommended an epoxy paint that would be durable and could be mixed for desired color. Fast forward, and I am happy to say that Antonio and his primary assistant, Angel, were excellent, right on time, easy to work with and 100% honest and sincere. They did a great job on redoing my concrete floor, which was complicated because I have a wood inlay that had to be taped carefully before the paint went on. They got it done right on schedule, and Antonio came by a couple of times during the week of drying and curing to check up on everything. Then, when the toilet was put back in the suite and started failing to refill the tank, they quickly came by again to take care of it. All in all, I am very happy with the work they did, with attention to detail and my schedule. I will add that the cost was more than I had imagined (and I could have hired others for quite a bit less), but I am glad I went with Medrano’s because of the attitude and ethic of Antonio, and the good quality work of Angel — it was worth it! I’ll post a photo of the finished floor to show the area, the color, and wood inlay Angel has to work around with great detail. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MEDRANO’S PAINTING!

Antonio Medrano's team of 3 just completed repainting the exterior of our c.1930's bungalow. Their work is great! The house is rough to work on with old wood and previous paint that was in bad shape. They spent time scraping the loose paint as well as powerwashing to remove as much as possible. Then they used a good primer extensively to seal down the edges of remaining paint as well as protect. They caulked everywhere to fill joints and cracks. Finally they gave the house a heavy spray or a good brush coat. They even painted the gutters and downspouts which used to match our trim but had faded. It all looks really lovely now. The same 3 men were here every day over a total of 9 days so they always knew what they were doing and where they left off. They were very punctual, worked diligently, consistently & were friendly. Antonio is a good manager and his communication with me was excellent. I also was really impressed with his attention to detail when he first looked at our house. He wanted to paint small areas that I wasn't paying attention to and they look great now. He has a good eye for the overall look as well as evaluating the job at the end. He made sure I was happy with the end result and was ready to fix whatever I pointed out. Antonio really cares about his work and his clients. Finally, the price for all this work was very reasonable. I had 4 painters look at the job and got 3 estimates. I felt like we really got excellent work and results for our investment. I will definitely recommend Medrano's Painting and will hire them again in a minute. Two photos show after scraping began (but some peeling looked almost that bad). After photos include how smooth and well painted the overhang of the roof looks. Now the green fascia visually connects with the underside of the metal roof because they painted the metal too. They did a great job power-washing our deck floor and restaining it. All porch floors and steps were primed to make the paint last longer.

Antonio and his team did an excellent job painting the trim around our house. They were punctual, professional, and detail-oriented from start to finish. The lines are crisp, the finish is smooth, and they took great care to protect the surrounding areas while working. The crew worked efficiently, and the end result really elevated the curb appeal of our home. Highly recommend Antonio and his team for any painting project!

Huge shoutout to Medrano Painters—especially Antonio—for totally coming through for us during our move! We were in a bit of a time crunch and needed the house painted ASAP before handing it off to the new owners, and Antonio didn’t just fit us in… he knocked it out of the park. The walls looked flawless—like nothing had ever hung or bumped into them. Super professional, super fast, and super high quality. Can’t thank them enough for making our exit smooth and stress-free. If you're ever in a bind and need top-tier painting work, Antonio’s your guy!

Wood Staining FAQs
Deck staining cost depends on the size of the deck, the shape the wood is in, and how much prep it needs. A deck with peeling stain or gray boards needs more cleaning and sanding, which adds time. The type of stain you choose matters too. We do not quote a flat price online because every deck is different. We come out, look at your deck, and give you a free, no-obligation quote.
Fence staining cost is based on how many linear feet of fence you have, the height of the boards, and the condition of the wood. A weathered or gray cedar fence needs more prep than a newer one. The stain color and finish also play a part. We do not list set prices since each Austin fence is different. Reach out and we will visit, measure, and give you a free quote for the work.
In Austin, deck stain usually lasts a few years before it needs a fresh coat, but the strong sun and summer heat here can shorten that. Decks that get full sun all day fade faster than shaded ones. Foot traffic wears it down too. Good prep and a quality stain help it last longer. We can check your deck and tell you how much life is left in the current finish.
Most decks and fences in the Austin area do well with a fresh coat every few years. The Texas sun, heat, and rain wear stain down over time, so wood in full sun may need it sooner. A simple test is to splash water on the wood. If it soaks in instead of beading up, the stain is wearing thin. We are happy to look at your wood and tell you if it is time.
It depends on the look you want and the shape of the wood. Stain soaks into the grain, shows the natural wood, and ages more gently when it wears. Paint sits on top, hides the grain, and can peel as it ages. For decks and fences, many Austin homeowners pick stain because it holds up well in our climate. We can walk you through both options during your free estimate and help you decide.
Often yes, but it depends on the old finish. If the old stain is worn, faded, or thin, new stain can usually go right over it after a good cleaning. If the old stain is peeling, glossy, or built up thick, we need to strip or sand it first so the new coat soaks in evenly. We check the wood before we start so the fresh stain bonds well and looks right.
