Fence staining. Mauldin, SC
Mauldin jobs are often established yards: a privacy fence that has been through a few summers, sometimes a new run the builder left raw. Same moisture check, same penetrating stain, one number in writing.
5.0 on Google from 33 reviews. Licensed RBS 66117. Insured.
A lot of Mauldin fences are on their second or third round of weather. Grey boards need a wash. Dirty wood does not hold stain. We wash, let it dry, meter it, then put on a penetrating oil that soaks in instead of sitting as a film that peels.
Newer Mauldin fences, the ones that went in with a house and never got stained, are simpler. Once moisture is under 13% they are ready. We bring stained wood samples so you pick against your own boards, not from a store chip.
We quote from photos when they are enough and come look when they are not. Flat rate, 12-month workmanship warranty, licensed RBS 66117 and insured. One crew, one quote, even if you also want the deck or a room painted.

How we stain a fence in Mauldin
We walk the fence, measure it, and check moisture. Oil-based stain needs wood under 13% moisture, so we tell you if it needs to dry first.
Grey, dirty, or moldy wood gets washed and dries before stain. Stain over dirt does not last, so we do not skip this step.
Penetrating stain, sprayed and back-brushed for even coverage with no drips or missed spots. The color you picked, the whole fence.
What sets the price in Mauldin
One flat number. In writing, before we start.
Length times height times sides. A clean newer privacy fence with water on site is the easy end. Greyed wood that needs a wash, both sides, no spigot, is the hard end. We look at your job and write one price. No hourly billing, no add-ons at the end.

Superior Stain Solutions did a fabulous job including pressure washing our 2 covered porches days before applying the stain several days later. They completed both porches in one day that included removing the gutters in the process. I love the color I selected as shown with the before and after photos. I highly recommend them if you have a fence, deck or a porch project needing professionals!
Adrian, Preston, and the team had by far exceeding my expectation. My wooden deck and stair need restoration and stain. It was definitely the right decision to hired this team. The quote was very fast, detail, and professional. Communication was the best I have ever experienced. Will definitely hire Superior Stain Solutions again for any future painting or staining project.
Great work, constant communication throughout the whole project. Have also heard great things from other clients they have done work for. Punctual, fair, responsive, honest. Will use again!
Adrian and Preston did a great job. I usually do my own painting because it is difficult to find painters that can paint to my standards. I was in a time crunch and needed help preparing my father-in-law’s house to sale. So happy I chose Superior Stain Solutions.
Adrian did an excellent job painting the inside of my condo. They painted all of the walls, ceilings, and trim. I wanted to add some color in the dining room, so they referred a local mural artist. They were polite, showed up on time, and worked efficiently. I definitely recommend them!
Superior Stain Solutions is a fantastic company that keeps their word and did an amazing job staining our wooden fence. An exceptional company that could not have pleased us more. Highly recommended!
Adrian was super responsive, sent the quote fast, and Mike’s staining work looked amazing. Excellent prices and easy to work with!
Superior Stain Solutions did a fantastic job staining my fence out by Greenville SC. Adrian was on time and reliable. I would highly recommend them for any staining or painting projects.
We got our fence and deck stained. They were able to do it in one day. Adrian was able to give us a great affordable quote. The stain looks great! Highly recommend them.
Adrian visited our property several times before staining our new privacy fence, making sure the moisture content was appropriate for staining. He provided us with a professional assessment and quote.
Colors
Every photo is a real job. We bring stained wood samples to the estimate in Mauldin and hold them against your boards.
We do not hand you a chart and walk away. At the estimate we hold real stained wood samples against your fence or deck so you see the color next to your wood, in your light. Transparent, semi-transparent, semi-solid, or solid. Light, warm, dark, or grey. Pick what you like and we match it.
Yes. We are based in Duncan and Mauldin is in our regular service area. Free flat-rate estimates, typically within one business day.
Length, height, one side or both, the condition of the wood, and whether there is water and power on site. A short, clean, newer privacy fence with water on site is the easy end. Greyed wood that needs a wash, both sides, no spigot, is the hard end. We measure, then give you one flat number in writing. No hourly billing, no add-ons once we start. Estimates in Mauldin are free.
Oil-based penetrating stain is usually the better call in Upstate heat and humidity. It soaks in instead of sitting as a film that peels. We use Expert Stain and Seal and Sherwin-Williams stains, and we check moisture before we open a can.
Usually every 3 to 4 years. Opacity, sun, and maintenance can push that to 2 to 6 years. Decks often need attention a little sooner than fences.
You can DIY if you have the time, a washer, and patience for the weather window. Most Mauldin jobs fail because the wood was not washed or was still wet, not because of the stain. A pro quote is free. Compare that to doing it twice.
Usually 1 to 3 days. One-day jobs include standard fences under 400 linear feet and small decks. Weather can move the calendar.
If the wood has greyed, weathered, or molded, yes. We soft-wash aged wood before stain so the finish lasts.
Spring and fall, with moderate temperatures (about 50 to 85°F) and lower humidity. We follow the stain maker’s temperature range. We also stain in cooler weather with oil-based products when the wood is ready.
In the Upstate, most stains dry and cure in 24 to 48 hours. Oil-based takes longer than water-based. Leave it alone while it cures.
For most wood fences and decks here, oil-based stain is the better call. It soaks in instead of sitting as a film, so it is less likely to peel and crack in our sun and humidity.
Stain as soon as the moisture is right. After mill oils dry out, wood starts to crack, twist, grey, and mold. We check with a moisture meter. Below 13% is ready for oil-based stain.
Yes. SC licensed RBS 66117, liability insurance, COI on request. 12-month workmanship warranty.
