FAQ
FAQ — Lafayette deck & fence painting
Why does my north-facing fence keep going green?
+
Shaded, moisture-retaining north exposures in Lafayette's canopy-heavy neighborhoods are prone to algae and moss. We treat the growth before washing and staining — just power-washing over algae doesn't kill the spores. Applying a mildew-resistant stain formulation helps slow regrowth.
How often will a Lafayette fence need refinishing?
+
In Lafayette's cooler, shadier microclimate, penetrating stains typically last 3-5 years depending on sun exposure. South and west-facing runs dry faster and degrade sooner. North-facing shaded runs hold finish longer but are more prone to biological growth.
Do you work on large custom decks?
+
Yes. Multi-level decks, inset stairs, and complex railing configurations are standard in Lafayette. We estimate by square footage and railing linear footage separately so you have a clear picture of scope.
Can you match a stain color I already have on part of the deck?
+
We can work from an existing sample or a product spec if you have it. If the prior finish is TWP, Penofin, or another named product we can typically match the tone. For an unknown prior finish, we'll test a small area first.
Lafayette's mature oak and bay canopy creates a different set of challenges than most East Bay cities. North-facing fences in shaded yards grow algae and moss between rains — the kind of green-black buildup that, if left untreated, works into the wood and shortens its service life. We handle deck and fence prep, repairs, and refinishing for Lafayette homeowners, with particular attention to the canopy-related moisture issues that show up in this microclimate.

Decks and fences we work on in Lafayette
Lafayette properties near the reservoir and in the older residential hills run large custom decks — often multi-level — plus redwood perimeter fencing on substantial lots. The shaded north sides of fences here develop algae growth that requires treatment before any new stain will adhere. Newer construction near downtown Lafayette and along Mt. Diablo Boulevard runs cedar and pressure-treated pine. We work on redwood, cedar, pressure-treated pine, and composite decks (Trex, TimberTech, Fiberon). Large deck footprints are common, and the combination of afternoon sun exposure on south-facing surfaces with shaded, damp north-facing surfaces sometimes means different product specs on the same property.
Our deck & fence refinishing process
Algae and moss removal is part of the prep here, not an afterthought. We apply a biocide wash before pressure washing, allow it to dwell, then rinse. Older redwood gets soft-washed to protect the grain. After washing, we allow 48-to-72 hours of dry time before any product goes down — longer if the property is heavily shaded and drying slowly. We sand rough grain, fix fasteners, and replace compromised boards. For penetrating stains we use TWP (Total Wood Preservative), Penofin, or Ready Seal. Solid color work runs Sherwin-Williams SuperDeck or Benjamin Moore Arborcoat. On shaded north-face panels we sometimes specify a mildew-resistant additive.
Stain vs paint for Lafayette
The shade factor in Lafayette pushes many homeowners toward solid color coatings — the UV exposure on shaded north fences is low, so solid paint holds well and refreshes every 3-4 years rather than 2-3. On sun-exposed south and west-facing decks and fence runs, a penetrating stain like TWP or Ready Seal performs well with a 3-year cycle (Lafayette's hill microclimate is cooler than Antioch or Brentwood, which extends stain life modestly). Large custom decks where the aesthetic matters often go with semi-transparent penetrating stain to keep the wood grain visible — a common preference in Lafayette's higher-end residential market.
What drives the cost in Lafayette
Algae and moss treatment adds prep scope compared to sun-baked properties. Multi-level decks with multiple stair sections and railing runs add time versus a flat single-level deck. Board condition on older redwood fences — soft rails, cracked posts — is common given the moisture cycle here. Deck square footage and railing complexity are the main drivers. Properties on slopes add setup time for staging.
Recent Lafayette projects
We recently refinished a north-facing redwood fence on a Reliez Valley-area property — biocide pre-treatment, soft-wash, 72-hour dry, and two coats of TWP 100 in a natural cedar tone. Also completed a large multi-level deck near the reservoir: cedar decking, pressure-washed, dried, then finished with Benjamin Moore Arborcoat semi-transparent in a warm brown. Three-day job due to the dry window and deck size.
