A Simple Guide to Deck Cleaning With Ehrman's Power Wash

Jacksonville, FL - Decks are relaxing places to socialize, host backyard barbecues, and read books while enjoying the weather. However, any enjoyment can be sullied by the presence of surface debris on the deck. This debris gradually accumulates over time, and if it is ignored for too long, it can negatively affect the visual appearance of the deck. Furthermore, debris can erode the deck, and organic substances like moss can exacerbate moisture damage that might be affecting the structure. Because of this, consider pressure washing the deck to bring it back to its original beauty. Many companies near you, including Ehrman's Power Wash, [https://www.jacksonville-pressurewashing.com/] provide deck cleaning services, [https://www.jacksonville-pressurewashing.com/deck-cleaning-Company-in-Jacksonville-FL/] and you can learn more about the process by reading below.

Preparing the Deck For Pressure Washing

Before pressure washing a deck, it is important to understand how much water pressure it can withstand. Different materials have different limits, and if washed with an incorrect amount of water pressure, it can be ineffective at best and damaging at worst. Here is a short reference of how much water pressure different deck materials can handle:

*
Wood (Cedar/Redwood): 500-800 PSI

*
Hardwood: 1,200-1,800 PSI

*
Composite: 1,500-3,100 PSI

*
Concrete: 2,500-3,000 PSI

Be sure to also remove any furniture (and other items) from the deck before pressure washing. If you do not, these objects will serve as obstacles during the pressure washing process.

Using Pressurized Water to Remove Dirt and Debris

After preparations have been made, it is time to pressure wash the deck. This work is accomplished using a pump (to pressurize the water) and a hose (to spray the water onto the surfaces). Simply wash the deck in a series of rows to ensure the whole structure is left clean. Any dirt and debris that does not wash away the first time can be treated using special treatment chemicals. Consider applying sodium hypochlorite to tough stains so they can be weakened and ultimately removed with touch-up pressure washing.

There are two important benefits of deck pressure washing. First and foremost, it improves the appearance of the deck, lending it a vibrant glow any property owner will appreciate. Secondly, decks that are free of surface debris are less likely to be eroded and damaged over time. This helps property owners avoid costly repair fees over time.

Consider Full-Service Deck Cleaning

The process of pressure washing a deck requires the right equipment, the correct knowledge, and some amount of your free time. However, if you lack any of these elements, or if you otherwise feel uncomfortable with pressure washing your own deck, consider reaching out to a professional company. For example, Ehrman's Power Wash would be delighted to pressure wash your deck so you do not have to. By allowing experts to do the work for you, you can count on quality results and spend the time relaxing instead.
