Custom Stains & Varnishes
Bring out the natural beauty of wood with custom stains and varnishes applied by experienced finish carpenters and painters.
Why Custom Stains & Varnishes Matter
Custom Color Matching
We sample and mix stain formulas on-site until we achieve a tone that's indistinguishable from your existing wood finishes—ideal for repairs, additions, or refinishing partial areas.
Interior Wood Finishing
Floors, staircases, cabinets, built-ins, doors, and trim all receive the same careful surface prep, grain-raising, and multi-coat application process for a rich, even finish.
Exterior Stain & Sealant
Decks, fences, cedar siding, and exterior millwork are stained and sealed with products formulated to resist PNW rain, UV fading, and mildew growth.
How Phinney Ridge Painting Can Help
We're not a flooring company or a cabinet shop—we're finishing specialists. That means every wood surface we touch gets proper preparation, correct product selection, and skilled application technique. The result is a finish that looks custom because it is.
Using industry-grade tinting systems and on-site test panels, we dial in the exact tone before committing to the full surface.
We use the best paints and materials available to ensure a vibrant, long-lasting finish that withstands PNW weather.
We work with top-tier stains and varnishes—Rubio Monocoat, Sikkens, Cabot, and others—chosen for longevity and appearance in the Pacific Northwest climate.
Proper sanding, cleaning, and wood conditioning are what separate a lasting finish from one that peels in two years. We never skip this step.
