Fence & Deck Cleaning in St. Augustine
Wood is the surface where over-pressure does the most visible damage. Furring the grain on a deck is permanent, and no amount of later sanding fully hides it.

Wood, and the temptation to use more pressure
Pressure-treated pine and cedar are soft. Push a wand too close and the machine carves the soft spring growth out from between the hard grain lines, leaving a furred, fuzzy surface that catches dirt faster than it did before.
The correct approach is a cleaning solution with dwell time and a wide fan at distance. It is slower and it looks less dramatic while it is happening. The difference shows a year later.
By material
- Vinyl fence — the easiest win on any property. Soft wash lifts the green film and it looks new again.
- Pressure-treated pine — low pressure and chemistry. Grey weathered pine brightens considerably.
- Cedar — softer still, and worth a brightener afterwards to even the tone.
- Composite decking — soft wash only. Most composite warranties specify a pressure ceiling, and exceeding it is visible as a dulled patch.
Questions
Worth asking before you book
How soon can the deck be stained after cleaning?
Give it several dry days. Timber holds far more water than it looks like it does, and a coating over damp wood will not bond. Worth planning the timing on the call.
How is fencing priced?
By linear foot, and whether one side or both is being done. A quote needs the approximate run length and the material.
