Fence Staining?
Answers: Matters how big the fence are, how much material and what not, but If you are in actual fact a good painter and are feeling like to put in a angelic 2-3 Coats of paint on each paling post and do it well, I bet you could procure a good $20-30 / hour. It's really firm to say.
Best process to do this for you and your client is by square foot(calculate for per linear foot of fence, not by both sides). Gallon of stain is let say, $25.00, at 250sf to a gallon, specifically $.10sf, Then theres tools: paintsprayer, scrapers, brushes, plastic/tarps. These are fixed variable cost. And theres supplies:Chemicals, bucket, sponges, etc. These are Variable cost and will necessitate to be replaced often. Go down the isle of home Depot and lowes, read the information on stain, draw from some brochures to hand out, And invest into some books.
But basically guessing if you charged $.30sf, then for a 5' x 50' obstruction you would charge about $75.00, thats $25.00 contained by stain and $50.00 for the fence, It should hold you 2 or 3 hours with sprayer to spray this paling,(including clean up and prep), if you did it by roller or brush be around 5-6 hours, so thats $8.00-$25.00 depending how you look at it, your skill rank, and your abilty to manage time.
