Deck Cleaning Service Chicago

Welcome to our deck cleaning service Chicago post. Although, we also perform deck staining, which is equally important, this post is mostly about our deck cleaning service Chicago.

Let me start by saying we are a true deck cleaning company and have been doing do for over 30 years. Even though, many people try to perform this on their own deck every year. Really, because you can rent cold water pressure washer anywhere. Doesn’t mean that they doing a good job, or that you cant damage wood very easily with a pressure washer.

In fact, 90 percent of people trying to clean decks, including some companies, damage the wood by raising the grain of the wood. What is raising the grain of the wood? The grain is the harder part of the wood. In between the grain is a soft pulpy material.

If you use too much pressure you can blow this material out leaving your deck with raised grain. Which is not nice to walk on with bare feet. Surely, this doesn’t look that good either. Now composite decks do not have a grain. However, these can be damaged with to much pressure also.

Deck Cleaning Service Continued

In truth, when we are cleaning decks, we are using specialty soaps and lifting agents. Along with steam to help loosen the dirt, mold, mildew, and weatheredness free from the wood. This way, we can use the least amount of pressure possible to clean your deck. Consequently, rental pumps and many of my competitors do not have steam or a pressure valve that will lower the pressure when needed.’

For all of the wood deck owners that do not want their deck to turn grey in 6 months after cleaning because of the ultraviolet rays from the sun. You may want to think about deck staining. It not only waterproofs your wood. As mentioned before, it also helps provide protection against the UV rays from the sun. We use an oil-based top of the line stain.

What make us different from many companies in Chicago. Is the fact that we are one of the only companies actually hand brushing the product into the wood surface.
