Maintaining painted exterior surfaces involves regular cleaning and inspections to catch any signs of peeling, cracking or fading early. Use a soft brush or a hose to remove dirt and debris from walls, fences or other painted surfaces. Depending on the location, consider power washing once a year to prevent mildew buildup. Touch up any damaged areas as soon as possible to prevent further deterioration. For best results, always use high-quality paint and follow the manufacturer's recommendations for maintenance.

Exterior paint usually dries to the touch within 4 to 6 hours, but this can vary depending on weather conditions such as humidity, temperature and wind. If it’s humid or cold, the drying process will take longer. While paint may feel dry after a few hours, it’s recommended to wait 24 to 48 hours before applying another coat or touching the surface. Oil-based paints generally take longer to dry than water-based paints, so factor that into your planning.

Both painting and staining have their advantages, and the choice depends on the look and protection you want for your fence. Paint offers more colour options and provides a solid, opaque finish that can completely change the appearance of your fence. Stain, on the other hand, enhances the natural beauty of the wood, penetrates deeper into the material and typically requires less upkeep. Stains are also available in various shades to suit your preferences.
