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. Â
Â
Staining prepÂ
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.
Â
Wood StainingÂ
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.Â
Â
Good news: Airtasker can help you with your wood repair, and deck staining needs as well.
Â
Brick StainingÂ
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.Â
Â
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.Â
Â
Concrete StainingÂ
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.Â
Â
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.Â
Â
But if you’ve decided that staining isn’t the right fit for you, various painting services are also available on our platform.Â

Deck and house timber stain Looking for someone experienced to clean, prepare and stain the timber at the rear of my house. Scope includes: Clean and prepare the existing back deck. Light sand/prep where required. Stain the full deck area. Stain the vertical timber cladding across the rear of the house. Stain the timber under the roof/eaves where required. Protect windows, brickwork, outdoor kitchen and surrounding areas. Apply enough coats to achieve an even, quality finish. Clean up once completed. The timber is currently weathered in some areas, particularly the deck, so preparation is important. Photos attached showing the full area. Please quote including labour and advise whether stain/materials are included or need to be supplied separately. Looking for someone with previous deck and exterior timber staining experience.
Amit’s attention to detail and craftsmanship were excellent. The finished work was completed to a high standard. The main area for improvement was communication around pricing. The scope and price changed during the job, but we did not receive a clear revised quote before the work was completed. The final cost was double the original price. Clear approval of any price changes before continuing would have improved the overall experience.
Stain the fence and the deck
$100
Chelsea VIC 3196, Australia

Stain the fence about 40 meters and also the deck 20 sqm. I am planning to plant the hedges within the next two weeks. I also have an old pain spray and I provide the stain as well. If you use the pain spray it’s an hour work on the fence. I hurt my neck and cannot do it myself. The deck needs a bit of a love. I put Monday as it’s the only day not raining but any days that are not raining is fine with me.
