- Fully Licensed and Insured Painters
Your home is a reflection of your personal style—and few things elevate a space like beautifully stained woodwork and trim. Whether you’re restoring historic charm or adding a refined finish to new construction, properly stained wood details bring warmth, richness, and a sense of craftsmanship that painted surfaces just can’t match.
At Bigwoods Custom Painting, we offer professional woodwork staining and trim staining services that focus on both appearance and longevity. Our team works closely with homeowners and contractors throughout New Jersey and surrounding areas to deliver superior finishes that enhance the character of your interiors.
Wood is one of the most timeless materials used in homes, but how it’s treated makes a big difference. Staining highlights the grain and texture of the wood, giving it depth and warmth that paint can often mask. With the right stain and finish, your trim, baseboards, crown moulding, doors, window frames, and built-ins can become standout features—not just finishing touches.
Staining also provides a level of protection against wear and tear, moisture, and fading. With professional application, your stained woodwork will resist everyday scuffs and maintain its look for years to come.
Our woodwork and trim staining service is ideal for both interior and exterior applications. Some of the most common features we work on include:
Whether you’re finishing raw wood or refreshing existing stain, our detailed process ensures an even, rich finish that complements your home’s overall style.
Serving New Jersey Homes and Businesses
We start by carefully prepping the area. That includes protecting your floors and surrounding surfaces with drop cloths and masking tape. If we're staining existing wood, we’ll clean and lightly sand it to remove any dirt, finish, or inconsistencies.
Some types of wood—especially softwoods like pine—can absorb stain unevenly. In these cases, we apply a wood conditioner that helps ensure consistent color and absorption across the entire surface.
Already have stained woodwork in your home that you want to match? No problem. We offer custom stain matching services to create a seamless look, whether you're adding new trim or refinishing old pieces.
We apply the stain by hand, using brushes and cloths for precision and control. After application, we allow the stain to penetrate the wood before wiping away the excess. This allows the color to build gradually and evenly, avoiding blotchy or streaky results.
Once the stain has dried fully, we apply a durable clear topcoat—usually polyurethane or lacquer—to seal in the color and protect the surface from moisture, scratches, and UV exposure. Depending on the look you’re going for, we can use matte, satin, semi-gloss, or high-gloss finishes.
After the job is complete, we clean the work area thoroughly, perform a quality inspection, and walk through everything with you to make sure you're thrilled with the results.

It depends on the look you're going for. Stain highlights the natural grain of the wood and offers a warm, timeless appearance. Paint, on the other hand, gives a clean and often more modern finish. If you have beautiful wood and want to showcase its character, staining is the way to go.
We typically apply a clear protective topcoat such as polyurethane or lacquer. This seals the stain, protects the wood from moisture and damage, and enhances the color. We offer different sheen levels—matte, satin, semi-gloss, and gloss—based on your preference.
Not usually. Staining produces less odor and dust than other types of refinishing work, and we take care to ventilate the space properly. For sensitive areas like bedrooms or high-traffic living spaces, we’ll coordinate with you to minimize disruption to your routine.
