How We Clean Your Deck or Patio
Not all outdoor surfaces are the same — and we don't treat them that way. Wood and composite decks require a careful low-pressure approach to avoid raising the grain, splintering boards, or damaging the surface finish. Concrete and brick patios can handle more pressure but still benefit from a pre-treatment application to break down stubborn organic growth before we rinse.
Here's what our deck and patio cleaning process looks like:
Pre-inspection to assess surface material and condition
Eco-friendly cleaning solution applied to loosen algae, mold, and mildew
Low-pressure or controlled pressure washing based on surface type
Detail cleaning along railings, edges, and corners
Final rinse and post-clean inspection
Why Regular Deck & Patio Cleaning Matters
In the Metro East's climate, decks and patios are exposed to hot summers, heavy rainfall, and freeze-thaw cycles that accelerate wear and organic growth. Algae and mildew don't just look bad — they make surfaces slippery and dangerous, and they break down wood fibers and surface coatings over time if left untreated.
Regular cleaning also prepares your deck or patio for sealing or staining, which dramatically extends the life of the surface. A clean, well-maintained deck adds real value to your home and makes your outdoor space something you actually want to use.
Getting Your Deck Ready to Seal or Stain
If you're planning to seal or stain your deck this season, professional cleaning is an essential first step. Applying sealant or stain over a dirty, moldy surface traps the contamination underneath and leads to peeling, uneven finish, and premature failure. Our deck washing service removes all organic buildup and opens the wood grain so sealant or stain bonds properly and lasts far longer.
We can clean your deck and have it ready for sealing — just let us know your plans when you book and we'll make sure the surface is prepared correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you clean a composite deck without damaging it?
Yes. Composite decking like Trex requires a gentler approach than wood — we use low-pressure washing and composite-safe cleaning solutions that remove algae and mildew without damaging the surface or voiding the manufacturer's warranty.
How often should I have my deck cleaned?
Most decks in the Metro East benefit from a professional cleaning once a year, ideally in spring before outdoor season begins. Decks under heavy tree coverage or in shaded areas may need cleaning more frequently due to faster algae and mildew growth.
Will pressure washing raise the grain on my wood deck?
It can if done incorrectly with too much pressure. That's why we always assess the surface first and use the appropriate pressure level for the material. We have extensive experience with wood decks and take care to protect the surface while still delivering a thorough clean.
How long does deck and patio cleaning take?
A standard residential deck typically takes 1–2 hours. Larger decks, patios, or combined projects may take longer. We'll give you a time estimate when we schedule your appointment.
Do I need to move my outdoor furniture before you arrive?
Yes — please clear the deck or patio of furniture, planters, and any other items before we arrive. This allows us to clean the entire surface thoroughly and protects your belongings from the cleaning solution and water.
