Flower Mound is established residential with mature trees and large lots, and the cedar fences throughout neighborhoods like Stone Hill Farms and Bridlewood are on full restain cycles. The mature tree canopy that defines Flower Mound's character keeps fence sections shaded through much of the day, which means mildew establishes faster and the stain cycle needs to account for it. At 3-5 years per cycle, many Flower Mound fences are due or overdue. Stephen McPherson is on-site for every job.
Why Flower Mound Fences Need Regular Staining
- Established residential areas in Flower Mound have mature trees that shade large portions of fence lines. Shaded cedar stays damp longer, mildew establishes faster, and the effective protection window for stain is shorter than on fully exposed fences.
- Large lots in Flower Mound mean long fence runs. A 200-300 foot perimeter fence that reaches the end of a stain cycle represents a lot of surface area to restain, which is exactly why the 3-5 year cycle needs to be respected rather than extended.
- Flower Mound has strong HOA presence in many of its developed neighborhoods. Fence condition is part of the broader curb-appeal standard these communities maintain.
- A cedar fence on a large Flower Mound lot is a significant property feature. Keeping it stained protects the visual character of the property as much as the structural integrity of the wood.
Our Fence Staining Process in Flower Mound
- Inspect the fence for rot, warped boards, cupped boards, and loose posts. Shaded sections get extra attention at the base where mildew and moisture concentrate.
- Soft-wash at 500-1,000 PSI to remove algae, mildew, and UV gray. Shaded fence sections with heavy mildew may benefit from hot water treatment at 160-200 degrees F.
- Let the fence dry 24-48 hours. Shaded Flower Mound fence sections hold moisture and need the full drying window. We schedule around it.
- Apply penetrating semi-transparent stain to both faces of every board. Mildew inhibitors in the stain formula are especially useful on shaded Flower Mound fences.
- Walk the fence line with you for sign-off.
