Recoating Timber Fencing
Protect & Refresh with Professional Timber Fence Recoating
Timber fencing is an important part of your property’s exterior, not only for privacy and security but also for curb appeal. Over time, exposure to sun, rain, wind and garden elements can leave fencing looking faded or patchy.
At Revolution Floor Sanding, we offer a professional timber fence recoating service to restore colour, protect against the elements and extend the life of your timber.
Why Recoat Timber Fencing?
– Refresh faded colour and restore a clean, uniform look
– Protect timber from UV damage, moisture & mould
– Prevent warping, splitting or rot
– Maintain the overall aesthetic of your outdoor space
Whether your fence was previously stained, oiled or painted, our expert team can assess and recommend the best solution for your timber and environmental conditions.
Our Timber Fence Recoating Process
1. Inspection & Preparation
We begin by inspecting the current condition of your fence:
– Is the existing coating still intact or peeling?
Is the timber greyed, mouldy, or water-stained?
– What product was previously used (oil, stain or paint)?
This allows us to determine the right approach for preparation and recoating.
2. Full Sanding or Light Sanding
If the old finish is peeling, flaking or heavily built up, we may:
– Lightly sand the surface to smooth rough or weathered areas
– Full Sanding to Strip back failing coatings if necessary
This creates a clean, uniform surface for recoating and improves the final appearance.
3. Application of New Coating
Once the surface is dry and properly prepared, we apply your chosen finish:
Popular Finish Options:
– Exterior Timber Oil: Enhances the natural grain, nourishes the wood and offers water resistance
– Semi-Transparent Stain: Adds colour while allowing grain visibility
– Solid Colour Stain or Paint: For a more opaque, uniform look
We use premium, UV-resistant, weatherproof products specifically formulated for Australian outdoor conditions.
Typically, we apply 2–3 coats for maximum protection and even coverage, using brush, roller or spray depending on fence type and access.
4. Drying & Final Inspection
We allow the coating to dry thoroughly between coats and conduct a final inspection to ensure even coverage and a professional finish.
We’ll provide test patches to ensure the final colour is exactly what you envision.
The Result: A Fence That Looks Better, Lasts Longer
- – Restored colour and natural beauty
– Strong protection against sun, rain, and mildew
– Cleaner, neater edges and surfaces
– Prolonged timber life and structural integrity
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is recoating timber fencing and why is it important?
Recoating timber fencing is the process of applying a fresh protective layer to restore its look and protect it from weather damage. Regular recoating helps prevent cracking, fading, and moisture damage, extending the life of your wooden fencing and keeping your outdoor space looking well maintained.

Most timber fences should be recoated every few years, depending on sun exposure and weather conditions. If the surface looks dry, patchy, or faded, it’s a good sign that recoating timber fencing will help restore protection and appearance.
3. Is recoating different from refinishing timber floors?
