Signs Your Deck Needs a Wash
Vancouver decks live a hard life. Months of rain, fir needles in the gaps, and shade that never lets the boards dry out. Watch for:
- Green or black film on the boards, worst in shaded corners
- Boards that feel slick underfoot when they're wet
- Cedar that's turned dull gray instead of warm brown
- Mildew shadows under planters, mats and furniture
- Grime that won't rinse off with a garden hose
How We Clean Decks Without Wrecking Them
High pressure is the fast way to ruin a deck. It carves lines in cedar, splinters soft grain and scars composite. So we don't blast. We match an eco-safe cleaner to your boards, let it kill the algae and mildew, then rinse with low pressure.
The cleaner does the work, not the machine. Boards come out clean and ready for stain or sealer if you want to go that far. And since decks and fences take the same beating, most folks have us do both. See deck and fence cleaning for how they pair, or add fence cleaning and patio cleaning to the same visit. Bundling services earns a discount.
What Deck Cleaning Costs
Every deck is different, so we don't quote blind. Price depends on size, board material, how much growth is on it, and extras like railings and stairs. What we can promise: the estimate is free, the price is straight, and nobody upsells you on clean day.
We clean decks all over Clark County, from central Vancouver out to Camas.
Deck Cleaning Questions
How often should I have my deck cleaned?
Once a year works for most Vancouver decks. Shaded decks, or decks under big firs, may need it more often, since moisture and needles feed algae faster. A yearly wash keeps the surface safe to walk on and stops grime from breaking down the boards.
Will pressure washing damage my deck boards?
Blasting at high pressure can. That's why we don't do it. We use low-pressure washing and cleaners made for wood and composite, so boards come clean without splintering, gouging or stripping.
Can you clean composite and vinyl decks too?
Yes. Wood, composite and vinyl each get their own approach. We match the cleaner and the pressure to the material, so the finish stays intact.
Should I clean my deck before staining or sealing?
Yes, always. Stain and sealer need clean, bare boards to bond. Our wash lifts the grime and old growth so the coating goes on right and lasts.
