About fence and deck staining
Timber decks and fences need cleaning and sometimes sanding before oil, stain or paint goes on, and the coating choice depends on how much grain you want to show. Decks take more wear than fences, so they need a harder-wearing finish and more frequent recoats. Ask whether the price includes a wash and any board repairs.
Getting quotes in Margate
When you enquire about fence and deck staining, describe the job specifically: what is happening, how long it has been going on, and anything you have already tried. That detail helps a provider assess the request and may improve quote accuracy if they respond.
Local knowledge counts
If the timing for fence and deck staining is flexible, include that in the Margate request and ask whether it changes availability or price. The provider remains responsible for confirming both.
Quick answers
How many coats of paint do I need?+
Most jobs use an undercoat plus two topcoats, which is the standard for an even, durable finish. Strong or dark colours, or painting over a very different colour, often need an extra coat. Ask the painter to quote the number of coats so there are no surprises.
Should I choose the cheapest painting quote?+
Not automatically. The cheapest quote often skimps on preparation, which is where a paint job lives or dies. Compare what each quote includes for washing, filling, sanding and number of coats, and check the painter carries public liability insurance.
Do painters supply the paint?+
Most painters supply the paint and build it into the quote, which is usually cheaper because they buy at trade prices. Some will apply paint you have bought, but then the finish and coverage are your risk. Confirm the brand and product line so you know the quality level.
