Wood Decks
Low Pressure, Right Cleaner
Too much pressure raises the grain and leaves the wood fuzzy. A wood cleaner does most of the work.
Brightening
A brightener after cleaning restores the wood's color and evens out the gray.
Drying Before Stain
If the deck will be stained, it has to dry fully first. Staining is a separate job, so plan the wash a few days ahead of the stain date.
Composite and Vinyl
Composite Decks
Composite boards stain from mold, pollen and leaves. Manufacturers publish their own cleaning guidance, and the crew should follow it rather than guessing at pressure and chemistry.
Vinyl Fences
The shady side of a white vinyl fence turns green fast in Midlands humidity. A soft wash cleans it without scratching.
Wood Fences
Same low-pressure approach as decks. Long runs are priced by footage.
Older Pressure-Treated Wood
Pressure-treated lumber made with CCA was phased out for most residential uses at the end of 2003, and it contains arsenic. The City of Columbia's stormwater guide advises against pressure washing CCA wood, especially with acid or chlorine cleaners. If your deck, fence or playset is older treated wood, say so on the quote form so the crew can plan around it.
Playsets and Porches
Wooden swing sets, porch floors and railings can be added to a deck or fence job. Cushions and fabrics usually aren't pressure washed.
