About this deck cleaning service
Wood and composite decks need a different approach from concrete. Board condition, grain, fasteners, railings, coatings, shade, drainage, and previous stain or sealer all affect how an outdoor deck can be cleaned without unnecessary pressure.
Send wide photos of the entire deck, steps, and railings you want included, plus close views of splintering, loose boards, peeling finishes, stains, or dark and green buildup. Deck cleaning can improve eligible surfaces, but it is not restoration, repair, sanding, staining, or sealing.
Properties and surfaces that fit
- Eligible wood decks with sound boards, railings, steps, and workable access
- Eligible composite decking after the product and current condition are reviewed
- Ordinary dirt, pollen, leaf marks, cobwebs, and outdoor organic buildup
- Residential and rental-property decks that can be fully cleared before cleaning
Our deck cleaning approach
- Review the deck material, board and fastener condition, coatings, railings, steps, drainage, landscaping, and access.
- Identify loose, splintered, weathered, oxidized, painted, stained, or sealed areas and set expectations before work begins.
- Use a material-appropriate cleaning method and controlled pressure for the eligible wood or composite surfaces included in the quote.
- Rinse and inspect the deck, then identify stains, finish failure, weathering, or damage that remains after cleaning.
Before we arrive
- Remove furniture, rugs, grills, planters, toys, string lights, and loose decorations from the deck and nearby spray area.
- Point out loose boards, raised fasteners, splinters, rot, repairs, peeling finishes, paint, stain, sealer, or known product requirements.
- Close nearby doors and windows, secure items below an elevated deck, and identify exterior outlets or sensitive landscaping.
- Keep people and pets clear during cleaning and allow the deck to dry before returning furniture or normal foot traffic.
Results, limits, and conditions that may change the plan
- Deck cleaning does not include sanding, staining, sealing, painting, board replacement, structural repair, or a restoration guarantee.
- Rot, loose or splintered boards, protruding fasteners, failing railings, unstable steps, or structural concerns may need repair before cleaning.
- Old coatings, deep stains, tannin marks, rust, fading, oxidation, uneven weathering, and some organic discoloration may remain.
- Painted, heavily weathered, newly installed, previously damaged, or manufacturer-restricted materials may not qualify or may require a different provider.
