What do staining services include?
Stain can be applied on different surfaces such as wood, brick, and concrete, which means the details for each service may vary. Don’t worry; we prepared a rundown of the essential staining services you may encounter when hiring an expert on Airtasker.
Staining prep
First, a clear work area is ideal when staining. Extra furniture, potted plants, and frames must be removed. Staining your property or furniture will usually include cleaning it first. A Tasker can only proceed once the surface is completely dry for large surfaces such as concrete floors, wooden fences, and brick walls that need to be washed. If staining will take place outdoors, it’s essential to check the weather conditions.
Wood Staining
When we talk of wood staining, it usually refers to fences and wooden furniture. Staining a fence gives your wood that splash of colour and protection it needs. Furniture stain may be applied to wooden cabinets, chairs, tables, bookcases, bassinets, bed frames, and doors. The wood doesn’t have to be new because restaining furniture is also possible.
Good news: Airtasker can help you with your wood repair, and deck staining needs as well.
Brick Staining
Whether it’s your walls, chimney, or fireplace, your home’s bricks need some care, too. The advantage of brick staining over brick painting is that stain accentuates the brick’s natural texture, and the finished product requires less maintenance.
Before staining the whole surface, your hired expert may first test the swatch on a small patch of brick to ensure that they have achieved the desired colour. The colour can be lightened or darkened by adding water or pigment.
Concrete Staining
Staining can also be done on concrete floors and walls, and you can easily find concrete staining contractors near you on our platform. Much like brick staining, your hired specialist will first test the stain on a small part of concrete before applying it to the rest of the surface.
After staining, your Tasker may apply a sealer to ensure that the concrete retains its seamless appearance. When the staining and sealing process is finished and your hired specialist has checked the surface, they will pack up their equipment.
But if you’ve decided that staining isn’t the right fit for you, various painting services are also available on our platform.

Mount 2 stainless steel wall shelves
$100
Albert Park VIC 3206, Australia
9th Oct 2026
Looking for someone experienced with wall mounting to securely install 2 stainless steel shelves above my coffee station. I’ll attach a photo of the actual unit/coffee machine and a render showing roughly how I want the shelves positioned. The shelves need to be: * centred properly on the wall * level and securely mounted * with the lower shelf around 2–4 inches above the top of the coffee machine * evenly spaced above each other Please note the shelves look slightly off-centre in the render, but I want them properly centred to the wall in real life. Would prefer someone with experience mounting shelves and checking wall type/fixings to make sure they’re secure.
Brian did a great job mounting the shelves. He was friendly, professional and clearly knew what he was doing. He took the time to make sure everything was level, centred and securely fixed, and the finished result looks exactly how I wanted. Really happy with the work and would definitely recommend him!

Install stainless steel wall shelf onto brick wall
$50
Prahran VIC 3181, Australia
22nd Sep 2026
Looking for someone to install a stainless steel wall shelf onto the brick wall pictured. Shelf, brackets and original mounting hardware/fixings are all supplied. I also have the installation instructions. It needs to be mounted securely and level on the front of the brick wall, underneath the TV, just below the power points. Please take appropriate care when drilling and ideally have a detector to check the area before drilling. Should be a fairly quick and straightforward job for someone with the correct masonry drill/tools and experience mounting into brick. Located in Prahran. Happy for you to use your own suitable masonry fixings instead of the supplied ones if you think they’ll provide a better/safer installation.
Great work 🤙 quick and quality
