It depends on the fence condition and desired look. Stain is common for wood fences, while paint or solid stain may be better for stronger color coverage.

Questions
Fence Painting FAQs
Can an old weathered fence be refreshed?
Often, yes. The estimate should confirm whether the fence is structurally sound and whether prep can produce a good finish.
Do plants or landscaping need to be moved?
Some items may need to be trimmed or pulled back for access. That can be discussed before work starts.
