Decks are nice areas outside the houses where you can simply enjoy the beauty of the outdoors. It is also a place where you can do many of your outdoor activities, and even host barbeque parties with your friends and colleagues.

Because of the amount of foot traffic your deck experiences throughout the years, you might notice that the color of the wood has changed into a darker and dirtier color. This is because of the dirt and grime that had accumulated on your deck as time goes by.

The Process (That Will Make You Proud of Your Deck)

In terms of deck and porches, wood is one of the best materials, but are also difficult to maintain. This is because they are vulnerable to many kinds of elements, such as the changing weather, plants, sun light UV damage, mildew, and even moisture from the soil.

This also explains why your wooden deck gets dirtier as time goes by, since the dirt and molds have embedded themselves deep inside the smaller cracks of the wood.

1. Cleaning and Preparing the Deck

To restore the color and look of your deck, our professionals use a degreaser, paint or stain stripper and then a pressure washer to clean even the hard-to-reach areas of the decks. This will remove all the mildew and debris from your deck. The detergent and solutions are also harmless, so there’s no need to worry about your nearby grass and plants.

2. Sanding the deck (if needed)

This is an optional step in the process. If there is really a need for sanding, we will make sure to get rid of the rough patches, stubborn stains and all other elements like old paint. If there are nails sticking up, we will put them back in place. In general, we will smooth things up.
