Sun-drenched summers, sudden hailstorms, and high-altitude UV exposure make Cheyenne one of the toughest places in the West for exterior wood. A quality stain is not a luxury—it is the final defence against moisture intrusion, warping, and colour fade. Homeowners who postpone maintenance often face costly board replacements later. That is where CountBricks steps in, combining AI-driven estimating with field-tested craftsmanship to keep every fence, deck, and pergola protected.
Real-time voice estimating means you walk your fence line once, tell our AI what you see, and receive an itemised quote before you reach the back gate. CountBricks pulls up-to-the-minute pricing on stains, brushes, sprayers, labour rates, and even ladder rentals, giving you a truly transparent cost breakdown.
• Faster bids: Average turnaround is seven minutes from first voice note to emailed estimate
• Blueprint takeoffs: Upload property drawings and let our engine calculate linear footage, post count, and board surface area
• Automatic task sequencing: Prep, clean, stain, and cure times assigned to each crew member for friction-free scheduling
The “best” product changes with altitude, humidity, and homeowner preference. CountBricks keeps a continuously updated material library so your estimate always reflects the latest technology.
• Transparent stains highlight natural grain but need recoating every 18-24 months
• Semi-transparent formulas balance colour pop with UV blockers for three-year cycles
• Solid stains act like thin paint, hiding minor defects and lasting up to five years when applied over properly prepped surfaces
1. Oil penetrates deeper, enhancing richness, but requires longer cure time and careful disposal of rags.
2. Water-based products dry quickly, release fewer VOCs, and are easier to clean up—ideal for tight project timelines.
3. Hybrid technology now offers the penetration of oils with the fast recoat times of water-based blends; CountBricks tracks these premium options inside our AI catalog.
Skipping or rushing prep is the leading cause of stain failure in Laramie County. CountBricks crews follow a documented process:
• Inspection and hardware removal to prevent streaks around hinges and brackets
• Pressure washing at 1,800–2,000 PSI to strip greyed fibres without gouging the wood
• Moisture testing—boards must sit below 15 % before stain touches the surface
• Sanding rough areas to open up pores for deeper penetration
• Masking adjacent masonry and landscaping to contain overspray
Back-brushing is non-negotiable. Sprayers provide speed, but only a brush forces stain into end grains and knots. CountBricks mandates a two-person team: one on the sprayer, one following with a brush to even out lap marks. For horizontal deck boards, we stain two full lengths at a time to keep wet edges live, avoiding dreaded “picture-frame” lines.
• Temperature: 50 °F to 85 °F
• Relative humidity: under 70 %
• Zero precipitation forecast for 24 hours post-application
Our AI scheduler pulls NOAA data hourly and automatically notifies you if conditions shift, ensuring your finish cures perfectly.

• Stir, don’t shake, your stain—shaking traps bubbles that mar the finish
• Test colour on an inconspicuous board; actual tones vary by wood species
• Stain vertical boards from top to bottom to prevent drip shadows
• Keep a wet edge—stop only at natural breaks like fence posts
• Record batch number; future touch-ups need the same lot for colour match
Staining Cheyenne fences and decks is part science, part art, and entirely about preparation. With AI-powered accuracy, vetted crews, and a warranty that makes sense, CountBricks protects your biggest outdoor investments—all while saving you hours off the estimating process.
When the Ramirez family bought their Cheyenne bungalow, the cedar fence had already gone grey. They contacted CountBricks for a “staining Cheyenne” solution that balanced curb appeal with long-term protection.
• Scope: 400 linear feet of 6-foot cedar privacy panels
• Timeline: 3 days total—one for prep, two for stain & cure
• Product: Water-based hybrid semi-transparent redwood tone
• Crew: 3 technicians plus 1 project manager
• Warranty: 3-year adhesion and colour-fade guarantee
The initial AI voice estimate came in at $2,270.34. Final invoicing after completion: $2,271.10. The 76-cent variance was due solely to an extra roll of masking paper—proof that CountBricks’ data-driven process keeps budgets tight.
Mrs. Ramirez noted, “We expected a week of noise and overspray. Instead, the crew was done in three days, the yard stayed spotless, and the colour is richer than we imagined.”
