Pressure Washing - Fencing and Decking
 

Fencing

After a fence has been up for a while layers of dirt, grime, algae, and other surface contaminants start to discolour the surface.

There is a mistaken belief that since the wood used for the fence has been pressure treated cleaning is not actually necessary. Another belief is that pressure washing or power washing pressure-treated wood will cause damage to the fence.

On the contrary, pressure washing, and any form of cleaning, will benefit your fence. Pressure-treated wood needs regular maintenance to continue repelling insects and prevent algae growth. The wood won't withstand long-term damage and corrosion without a proper cleaning programme.

 

Do you need to clean a fence before staining?

Cleaning a wooden fence is an essential step before you can proceed with the staining process. Dirt, grime, grease and algae prevent the wood from absorbing the stain completely.

An unclean surface means that any top coat applied will peel away quickly due to poor adhesion. If you want your stain to last longer, cleaning your fence before applying any stain is an essential first step.

Our Pressure Washing Service

With our high-powered petrol engined pressure washer we can blast away all the years of dirt and grime. As you can see from the accompanying video, this is a serious piece of kit; much more powerful and effective than the do-it-yourself and cheap electric versions that are so popular with homeowners.

Within a few hours we can restore the colour and texture of the original wooden surface. Once again you can enjoy the admiring glances and comments of friends, neighbours and passers-by. Once again you can come home to a pristine fence line.
