Decking & Fence Cleaning

Lower-pressure cleaning for suitable timber decking and fencing across Stockport, Greater Manchester and Cheshire.

  • Lower pressure for timber surfaces
  • Cleaning for dirt, algae and weathering
  • Condition checked before work starts

What to expect

Remove surface dirt and growth

Cleaning can lift algae, grime and some grey weathering from suitable timber.

Clear growth from deck boards

Built-up algae and dirt are removed from the boards, grooves and accessible edges.

Prepare for a later finish

Cleaning may be the first step before oiling or staining, once the timber has dried properly.

  1. 01

    Check the timber

    We look for loose boards, splintering, coatings and other areas that need care.

  2. 02

    Clean at lower pressure

    The timber is cleaned with reduced pressure and a suitable spray pattern.

  3. 03

    Work around edges and steps

    We clean accessible details around posts, steps and changes in level.

  4. 04

    Allow the timber to dry

    We explain the drying time and what to consider before applying any oil or stain.

  • Mention if you are interested in sealing or re-sanding

Will jet washing damage my decking?

Timber can be marked by too much pressure. We inspect it first and use a lower-pressure method, but badly weathered or damaged boards may still need repair.

Can you clean painted fences?

Possibly. We test a discreet area first because loose or weathered paint may lift during cleaning.

How quickly will the decking dry?

Drying time depends on the weather, shade and airflow. Timber must be fully dry before any oil or stain is applied.

Can every mark be completely removed?

Not always. Age, porosity, previous treatments and the source of a stain affect the result. Once we have seen the surface, we will explain what is realistic and may suggest a small test area.

What if the surface is already damaged?

Loose pointing, failing coatings, cracked materials and unstable joints need to be identified before cleaning. We will discuss whether cleaning should be adjusted, delayed or avoided.
