Deck & Patio Cleaning in Oakland & the Bay Area | Wood-Safe Pressure Washing

The Short Answer

Deck and patio cleaning uses wood-safe pressure plus an optional brightening solution. We adjust PSI and tip distance to clean without splintering boards, and patios get a surface-cleaner pass for streak-free results. Most jobs take 2–4 hours. Every quote is free.

How It Works

Material identification

Cedar, redwood, composite, and pressure-treated lumber each demand different PSI. We don't blast everything the same way.

Pre-clean

Sweep, move furniture, protect plants and any glass. Outdoor cushions and rugs covered.

Wood-safe wash

Reduced pressure with the right tip and distance — lifts grime without splintering boards or fuzzing the wood.

Brighten

Wood-brightening solution restores the natural color. Optional but recommended — most decks look 5 years younger.

Re-staining referral

If your deck needs a re-stain after the wash, we'll refer you to a finish pro we trust.

Why Blast Off

No splintering

Wrong PSI fuzzes the wood and ruins the surface. We dial it in by board species — clean, smooth result.

Brighter, restored color

Optional brightener lifts the gray and revives the natural wood tone. Looks like a re-stain, costs a fraction.

Patios & pavers without etching

Same surface-cleaner method as driveways — even, streak-free results without harming joint sand.

FAQ

Deck & Patio
FAQ.

Will pressure washing splinter my deck?+

Not when it's done right. Wood-safe washing uses lower PSI, the correct nozzle tip, and proper distance. We've washed thousands of square feet of cedar and redwood without splintering.

Should I re-stain after the wash?+

If your stain is faded or peeling, yes — washing first is a prerequisite for a clean re-stain anyway. We focus on the wash and refer re-stain work to a pro we trust.

Can you clean composite decks?+

Yes. Composite (Trex, TimberTech, etc.) actually washes beautifully — we use lower pressure and a composite-safe cleaner so we don't damage the cap layer.

What about pavers and natural stone patios?+

Surface-cleaner pass with adjusted PSI cleans without etching the stone or blowing out joint sand. We re-sand joints after if needed (small extra fee).
