Is your deck covered in a green or black slimy substance? Not only is this unpleasant to look at and bad for the longevity of the material itself, it is actually a large safety concern for anyone stepping on your deck. The last thing any of us wants is for ourselves, family, or other guests on our property to be injured due to our neglect. The good news is, FH Pressure Washing can safely and professionally maintain your deck. Whether it’s wood or a composite material, we have the experience necessary to bring that deck back to life. 

Living in Vermont and dealing with such long winters means we like to spend as much time as possible outside enjoying the nice weather when we can. Whether Shelburne, South Burlington, Essex Junction, Williston, or another town in the Burlington area, this is a desirable place to live because of those beautiful summers. Instead of wasting your weekend fiddling around with equipment that you only use periodically, to risk potentially damaging your valuable property, FH Pressure Washing will be in and out, and leave your deck looking the best it can.

Top real estate websites all suggest keeping a well maintained deck to maximize the curb appeal of the property, as well as giving the deck its best chance to see the full life expectancy of the material. Blasting a soft wooden or composite deck with 4,000 plus psi is dangerous, ineffective, and damaging to the surface! The best way to clean without damaging is to apply a chemical application to the surface, allow it to dwell, and rinse it with around 600-1200 psi depending on the surface. Pressure treated pine and composite decks can withstand those higher pressures around the 1200 psi mark, without gouging the surface or leaving marks. However, a softer wood like cedar can certainly be damaged by getting too close with the wand and using too high of a pressure. Take the worry out and leave it in the hands of our professional team.
