Fence Staining in Wichita, KS: 26 Colors on New Cedar or Your Existing Fence

Oil-based Wood Defender stain. Named and priced on the quote, and every color linked to photos of real fences.

Short answer

We stain new cedar and fences you already own, across Wichita and the towns around it. On a new cedar build, stain adds roughly $6 to $7 per linear foot. An existing fence is quoted after we see the wood. Call us.

Two Ways We Stain

Part of a New Build, or a Fence You Already Own.

On a new cedar fence, stain is a line on the quote you saw before you signed. The crew comes back for it once the wood is ready. On a fence that has gone gray, we clean it, let it dry, and put the color on. Same 26 colors either way.

Broken pickets first? The Picket Replacement, 2 sections for $279, replaces them. New pickets go on raw, so stain is quoted after.

Timing in Kansas

When the Stain Actually Goes On.

Dry wood and a day above 50 degrees. That is the whole rule. Why we stain in January.

New cedar

Within days of the last picket

Our Derby fence was stained five days after the last picket went on, as its own visit.

Weather

One day above 50 degrees

Kansas hands out warm days every winter month. We plan staining around them.

Existing fences

Clean, dry, then stain

A gray fence gets washed, a day or two to dry, then the color goes on.

The Derby stain job, in the owner’s words

“These guys are the best in town! I spoke with other local fence companies and Ovora was the first that actually took the time to sit down, listen to what we wanted, and helped us map out a plan we were happy with. I felt heard and was taken care of from day one. If you want nothing less than perfect. Call these guys now!”

Stain, in Four Questions

Do you stain fences you did not build?

Yes, if the posts and rails are sound. We look first, then quote the cleaning and the stain on one written price.

How much does it cost?

New cedar: a per-foot line on the quote, shown above. An existing fence is quoted after we see the wood. Call us and we will come look.

Transparent or semi-transparent?

Transparent nudges the color and keeps every knot visible. Semi-transparent carries the color and is how you get gray, black, or deep brown.

How long does it last?

Years, and the next coat goes straight over the old one. No stripping, no sanding. Stained twice over its life, a cedar fence should last 15 to 20 years here. More in how long a cedar fence lasts in Kansas.

More on weather, prep, and how long it lasts: the stain section of our FAQ. Choosing the fence itself: cedar privacy fences and cedar vs. vinyl in Kansas. Building new? Stain goes on as its own trip after our cedar fence installation in Wichita.
