I have a newly built pine shed in Mississauga with the windows and roof already in place, and I’m ready to have it stained. I’m looking for a professional finish that lets the grain show through, so a semi-transparent stain is the exact look I want. Before any stain goes on, the exterior will need a thorough sanding to open the pores and smooth out minor mill marks; please include that prep work in your quote and timeline. Please note, there is a fence within 3 feet from two walls. The job is straightforward: sand the pine cladding, apply the semi-transparent stain evenly on all visible wood surfaces, and leave the site tidy once everything is dry. If you prefer to work with specific brands or have recommendations on the best semi-transparent products for pine, let me know—I’m open to suggestions as long as the final colour stays consistent. Because the structure is already enclosed, there’s no concern about interior overspray, but care around the installed windows and roof line is essential. Weather permitting, I’d like the project completed within the next couple of weeks. Deliverables: • Complete surface sanding of exterior pine panels • One (or two, if needed) coats of semi-transparent stain applied evenly • Final cleanup and disposal of any debris or masking materials Please outline your approach, estimated duration, and any warranty you offer on workmanship. I look forward to getting this shed looking great and protected for years to come.

Hello, I will hand‑sand the entire exterior of your pine shed to remove mill glaze and open the wood pores, paying special attention to the two walls within 3 feet of the fence using careful masking and drop cloths, then apply two thin, even coats of a high‑quality semi‑transparent stain (e.g., TWP or Defy) that enhances the natural grain and provides UV protection. I will tape off the roof line and windows to prevent drips, ensure no overspray touches the fence, and leave the site completely tidy. The estimated duration is 2–3 days, weather permitting, and I offer a 1‑year warranty on workmanship against peeling or uneven coverage. I will work within your next‑two‑weeks timeline and can recommend the best warm tone to complement your yard. Best regards.
